I assume "airplane" is code for '32 roadster. :P ;)

Post by: Eyeball on October 22, 2012 5:41 pm: I would consider taking either the 32 or the Merc if there was a group of hot rods going. But even being a spectator would be fun at this one.

Post by: Lucky on October 22, 2012 5:43 pm: I agree looks like a great time but would be fun to be there with a car!
