August 26, 200619 yr Spent a couple hours at the Keeneland Concours d'Elegance this morning and I have to say that it was one of the best experiences I've ever had! I wish those of you in the area that post on here could have met up there with me, it was well worth the $15 entry...WELL worth it. I overheard that over 200 Corvettes were there, it was the featured make this year, plus Packards, Porsches, Ferraris, Austin Healeys, Maseratis, Lambos, Minis, Miatas, Audis, Bimmers, Benzs, Alfas, GMs, Fords, Chryslers, racecars, and more that I'm sure I'm forgetting. Including!!!!! 5 Corvette concept cars on loan from the GM Heritage Museum in Detroit!! More cars than you can shake a stick at! And YES, I got pictures. There were too many to get a picture of absolutely everything, so I focused mainly on rarities and tried to get something for EVERYONE here (sorry BV, no Fieros ). I'm getting them uploaded now, and since you guys know more about them than I, I'll just make a huge picture post and not bother organizing and posting what little info I know about them. It will be in the C&G Feature Articles section when I'm done.
August 26, 200619 yr Make sure it's 56K friendly. My connection is pretty solid, but it can be rather anemic.
August 26, 200619 yr Author Alright, pictures are posted in C&G Featured Articles board. They're clickable thumbnails, so all the posts should be 56K safe. Go check them out!
August 26, 200619 yr Wow, thats quite a show. So whats in Keeneland that draws such a huge event, Im thinking we dont have anything like that in NY. The Adirondac Nationals is big but thats just Domestic stuff and HotRods, lots of those kinds of shows. Theres usually about 10 -15 cars tops I find interesting and only about 5 I truely get excited about. Dont think Im going this year............"oh look its another 32 Ford, and another, and another, oh look its a 55 Chevy and another and another", dah! not for me............................. glad you enjoyed yourself, sounds like a great show.

Its easy to have a car show there, I'm assuming, because the grounds is large so they can easily get 400-500 cars in and out. And it was a great show, it really had something for everyone. There were lots of cars, domestic and foreign, from the 30s-to-present.
