I went last year and it was really cold and cloudy. turn out was OK but I expected better. Still there were some nice cars. the band blew hard. it is a pre-1972 show. they are pretty strict on the dates. I tried to autocross my 79 T/A and was turned down.

Not sure on the dates, but it may conflict with vintage racing at Watkins Glen.

You should have posted and joined us. Really cool show. About 2000 cars, vendors, Auto X, and then they allow you to take laps on the raceway after. I'm already planning on going next year and show and auto X. By the end of the day Nick was contemplating buying a pre 72 car just for next year so he can play too.

Nick - You plan on posting some pics or video?

That 'chick' was likely Stacey Tucker, co-owner of DSE and an accomplished automotive engineer just like her husband Kyle, the other owner She is also very nice to talk to, actually both of them are.
