Click Here to return to the Events page for other upcoming activities. 2008 National Meet News Mark your calendar -the dates for the 2008 club national meet are set. The dates are September 17-21 in the greater St Louis Missouri area. Our hosts are members Rich Bolzenius, Gene Lewis and Sherri Evans. The 17th & 18th will be spent touring in the St Louis area. Friday the 19th will be a gathering at the home of Rich & Judy Bolzenius in Union Missouri. Rich typically has some interesting guests at the Friday gathering. Past guests have included Cotton Owens, Charlie Glotzbach, James Hylton and Neil Castles. Celebrity cars attending have included a real Chrysler Turbine car. It's also common for St Louis assembly plant workers from the muscle era to stop by. Saturday & Sunday the 20th and 21st will be spent at Gateway Raceway inside the oval track for the Monster Mopar Show & Swap. Ford and Mopar Aero cars are a feature of the show. The organizers have made it clear they want all the Aero cars, including the Talladegas and Spoilers, and are creating a judged class for the Ford cars as well. Tentative plans are that there will be track touring sessions on the mile high banked Gateway oval. These are typically done at a faster speed than the crawl of a typical parade lap. This promises to be an excellent event, so make your plans to attend now. Hotel Info: Since we will be on the west side of St Louis, we have a deal with the Super 8 motel right in Union Missouri.
