All, I left out 2 important details regarding the racing.
The first was that we had Gary Keller and his 10 second Rambler Wagon on the track. Gary cut the second best RT during qualifying. The car is well known both at the track and around the town. Gary told me he used it to move lawn furniture and even took it to Home Depot from time to time. The other thing was that there were two pair of father/son racers in the mix. During Test and Tune or qualifying, I know one pair lined up against each other. I don't know if there were any grudge matches but what a great place to settle your differences and have fun! We had 4 round of racing but could have supported more. The track has a Mopar Day in May put on by the Owner, Elmer. It conflicts with the spring Ocean City Cruise and we don't usually see many AMCs at the track either for Show or Go. We do get 2 or 3 that usually go pretty deep in the rounds. I will post next years date for anyone who wants to Race. VR, Dave |

All,
This is not All AMC Day. As stated that has been rescheduled to October 27. ECAD has never been a "dud." We usually have between 30 and 40 AMCs at the event. I would say we usually get about 10 racers and 10 vendors. Typhoon is probably sees 30 or 40 AMCs at the Tim Hortons (they got 3 of them!) I would drive 9 hours to see 30 or 40 AMCs, a Match Race, Drag Racing, a raffle and 10 or so vendors. Further more, this year we are sharing the track with the Pontiacs. Maybe we will see an AMX race a GTO. I can't blame typhoon for not wanting to make the trip. We hear complaints from the people in Eastern PA and New Jersey that Mason Dixon is too far away.

I'm planing to go to both the Mason Dixon Show and then the Cecil Show next month. Mason Dixon is hosted by Potomac Ramblers Club and Cecil is hosted by Mid Atlantic AMC Club. So the two clubs will have club members showing, and DVAMO AMC Club will be attending. Mason Dixon tends to be a little bigger these days for Show Field participation, but this could be because of the very Hot Summer weather in the past at Cecil. The rescheduled Fall Cecil Show, in the cooler October 27th date should bring higher participation this year. Both Shows had vendors and racers.
Here are a couple You Tube Videos I made for each of these events from previous years Shows. Others have posted You Tubes as well, that will give you a feel for what it's like. https://youtu.be/jgrPln_3fGE https://youtu.be/rbT-cuSiCl8

If the weather is good this might be a good turnout as Cecils rescheduled date is October 27TH. The way this crazy weather has been we might have to put studded snowtires on our cars. Now that would be some interesting burnouts. Lol!
