Stirling Moss will be a co-chair and I'm told some of Petty's cars will be there on display.  March 12-14 are the dates.

Amelia is a fantastic event.   If you can make it, you should.  The event is just north of Jacksonville, and is one of the top three concours events in the country.    Where Pebble Beach is more about being seen, Amelia is all about the cars.  

The actual show is on Sunday, but there will be a panel discussion on Saturday with Petty, Don Garlits and Stirling Moss, moderated by David Hobbs.    That is guaranteed to be good.     

There are a lot of race cars that will be there.  Quite a few well known drivers and personalities are there just walking around.   We will have Ramo Stott's Superbird on display Sunday, which I am looking forward to very much.    We will be celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Ramo's win at Daytona, which was the first win for the Superbird model.

I will be there for the RM auction so at some point I will also be going through the concours as well.  I will be certainly watching for the well known drivers.

The RM auction is on Saturday, and the show is Sunday.

Actually the auction runs Friday and Saturday but for me it basically is going to be from about March 8th to March 16th or 17th.  :icon_smile_wink:

Gooding also has an auction on Friday close by.
