We are loading up Bonnie & Clyde and heading South! A week in Monterrey playing at the track, on the streets and all around Carmel!!

If you see a really nice Brittany Blue GT/CS cruising around or at the track, give me a yell and say hi!

I figure this might be a pretty good venue to advertise this one of a kind 390 S-code 4 speed for sale....

Hope to see you there!

Sorry to play grammar police... but Monterrey is in Mexico... Monterey is in Cali... used to live there, back when Cannery Row was still was a shell of its former self as Steinbeck saw it... Doc Ricketts and the hippie hangouts on the scruffy side of the tracks... pre tourist trap, pre aquarium days... always bugs me when people misspell the name...

And Laguna Seca is really in Salinas, but Monterey sounds better to the high rollers! ;) Monterey says "Coast" and a stones throw from Pebble Beach/Carmel vs. "farm valley" for Salinas.... PR at its finest!

Beautiful area. Should be a lot of fun.

Long ago and far away for me!

What a great weekend :) TJ, Renee "PonyGal" and I stopped by to say "Hi" and admire your car, Lee, but didn't get to meet you.

Excellent display in company with all those magnificent Shelbys that dominated the event this year!

Hey Tim, so sorry we missed you at the track. What an event!!! Never seen so many early Shelby's in one place at one time, not to mention all the race prepped cars on the track. I have a video of all of them coming out of turn 2 and one of them over correcting and turning in front of all of them and into the gravel. Can we post videos here?

Thanks for the pictures. Car is still for sale....
