I'm planning on going there at least for one day this year. Anybody else going to be there? Or anybody have any advice?

James,

I wish I could. If there ever was a year to attend (from a Euro-Ford perspective) this would be it! I hope you can bring back photos and a report for the forum and the newsletter.

Cheers,

Michael

Well, I did make it there..unfortunately it was Sunday at 11:00am....and there were tornado warnings in the area, so pretty much everybody was packing up and leaving. I did get some pics of the Merkurs, which there was an amazing amount of, along with some Capris. I'll see what I can do about posting the pics and doing a write-up.
