    I hope to go! Where I grew up, on a warm summer evening, you can hear the roar of "The Valley" off in the distance. I suggest you arrive Friday evening and visit S&S Brewery a few miles down the road on Rt 20 in Nassau. It's very hard to find but it is a former dairy farm converted to a tap room. It's ONLY open on Friday nights from 6pm to 8 or 9. Real craft beer! Great Barrington and Lenox, MA are great towns nearby for the wife if you need to find a politically correct reason for the trip...

    Planning on being there, my first trip to this event. Bringing my blue skylark to race. Any advice on how early one should show up at the gate

    Hi, bryan If you plan on racing this event I would be in tech line at 7 am. There tech is before entering track.

    Gate (and tech) open at 7:30, and it's a good idea to get there as early as possible, cause by 8:30 it'll be a zoo......I'll be there with my 71

    We had Buick Day last Saturday at Lebanon with decent turnout. No BOP at Lebanon anymore, something about Pontiac guys had a falling out with the track.

    who is camping? we're getting there Saturday about 6. the track told my buddy its rv only?? anyway we're looking for a spot to pitch a couple tents. there is a campground about 15 minutes away, but we'd rather stay at the track.

    No camping for me, I've got a room reserved and will be in line early at the track.

    Glad I went, had a great day. Its always good to meet a few more of the Buick crowd. I was lucky enough to win the 12 second class in my skylark, a
    nice trophy and bragging rights was well worth the long ride

    Awesome. Thanks for all the help and advice yesterday. I'm going to get a shorter set of slicks and go from there.

    Congrats, Brian. I didn't get a chance to talk to you as I was busy going rounds in the 10 second bracket, only to lose in the final. The Buicks were out in force yesterday! I hope we get the same kind of turnout for the fall Musclepalooza.

    Nice work guys! I won my FAST shootout against Gene Wilsey's AAR Cuda too, and I believe Phil Roitman won his shootout in his 73 Century as well.... All in all, Buicks were out there doing the job....
