it was great fun. Keith (sweetdaddy) on here told me about it. it was my 3rd time going to it, this was the largest turnout i think.

Awesome pics James!
I was especially pleased and suprised to see the black Elise merging on the highway and said I think that has my name on the back of it!

By far the largest turnout this year. Participation was great with 95 cars!!!

He is from England and said he can't actually get it registered here but it is on some sort of car visa or something. I like that it didn't even have US plates but rather some sort of Lotus euro plates. He said he ships it back and forth once a year so he can keep driving it here.

The Corvette is a reproduction. It has a modern 'vette motor. It is really nice. Last year it got the most votes in the Concourse. Amazing given the quality of the cars participating.

His name is David. He has been in the north Atllanta area for about one year. It is a 2002 with about 46000 miles on it. It has the Rover engine. He is a very nice guy. We talked with him as we waited in line for registration. I had no idea that canyon red was around back in 2002. He also stated he has been pulled over many times. He just pulls out his temp epa paperwork and a few other forms and they let him go on his way.
Great pics, thanks for posting them.
