I hope we've seen the last of the winter weather for the year. Now that spring is back, it's time to look forward to the Exotic Sports Car Show and Concours d’Elegance at ACC. This year's show is Sunday Jun 9th 2013 from 9 to 3. There is more information at http://www.cpco.org/concours/index.htm. The link to sign up is not yet on the CP web site, because we want to give our clubs a chance to register before we open it up to the public. The registration link is http://events.constantcontact.com/register/event?llr=keqndscab&oeidk=a07e74x8v6m9464045f. The deadline for registration is May 24. There is one important change to the registration process this year: there is a good chance that we won't be doing "day-of" registration because the large number of cars we're expecting this year, which means that cars that don't make the 5-24 deadline may not be able to join us.
As in previous years, I'd like to pool our money together to get a tent. I've reserved one to be set up with our cars. We can have a table as well if we want one. It might be a neat place to display NSX memorabilia. If we don't have enough to set up a display, then we might be better off without the table so we can fit more chairs in the shade. Please let me know what you think.
This year there are several significant anniversaries in the Porsche world. It is the 50th anniversary of the 911, the 60th anniversary of the first Porsche club, and the 65th anniversary of the 356 and Porsche itself. The Porsche club was one of the clubs that started the CP show 30 years ago, so we are featuring the Porsche at this year's event.
For those who are new to the area, this Concours is held every June to benefit Cerebral Palsy of Colorado, and it is one of their biggest fund raisers. It is also becoming one of the premier car shows in the rocky mountain region. We expect to get about 450 of the most beautiful, historical, exotic, and classic cars from the Denver area, including about a dozen NSXs. You never know what kind of cars will show up. In the past, we’ve had Bugattis, Rolls Royces, Gullwing Mercedes, even an Enzo. Last year, we featured cars of the Colorado Grand, and we had some wonderful race cars, including Mario Andretti's Ford GT40.
Looking forward to seeing everyone again
