Charlotte, NC is southeast.  14 hours is a haul for just a one day show butcould maybe make a mini vacation out of it and spend a couple days checking out the area. I haven`t given up trying to convince the wife to move south yet, hmmmmm... :thinking:

Musclepalooza at Lebanon valley dragway in NY on Memorial day Weekend.  Great show and F.A.S.T. racing.  Mopars in Motion has a number of shows around CT with a good one also in May.  Good lord willing, I will be visiting the area and able to attend both.

Probably too far.  I'm hopeful that I can pull this one off.

That has to be a unique show. The under appreciated C-bodies get to have their day in the spotlight. There aren't that many that show up at Carlisle, so I wonder how many cars they can pull in?

I'll be at the beach that weekend, but it would be a long haul for me too.

I realize this would not interest most on here, but there is a major MOPAR only event called WAM (We Are Mopar) that is located in Ft Worth at the Texas Motor Speedway on Labor Day weekend. It is the 5th year (I think) and is a 3-day event, Friday thru Sunday with the main event on Saturday. It is of course primarily new-gen cars & trucks with classics more than welcome but only 10-20 generally attend.
* The primary sponsor is B.F.Goodrich and among other things they host a timed road course where you can drive your own car or ride in one of BFG cars (Dodges) with a professional driver.
* There is what they call "Laps for Vets" where you can do 3 laps on the Nascar track with all ticket proceeds going to a local Vet charity. I did this a few years ago and got up to 90mph, was a blast!
* They also have a car show competition with very cool custom built trophies.
* New this year they are having a burnout competition
* Last year they had a cruise on Sunday with over 200 cars in a very long line.
* They host what is called Friday Night Lights, a takeover of a 4-story parking garage to just hang and show off (especially lighting).
* Lots of vendors are present including Dodge. I'm probably forgetting some stuff.
Again, this is not a classic car meet but if you don't need a swap meet and can appreciate some crazy customs & mods it is a very cool and impressive event. Something different to consider as a weekend get away. It is pretty inexpensive and actually free just to walk in and enjoy.

Pictures of last years show start here on page 9.  There are a few pages of cars.  Great bunch of guys.

I think the Canadian Border has opened up some so may want to reconsider that option . . I am hopeful they ease up some more before the Moparfest show so I can go.
