Default Re: V8 Grand National Concours South Lake Tahoe

Hey TJ, I'm glad you enjoyed.

I actually got a lot of nice videos from the Grand Tour and climbing those three mountains. I'm trying to upload a video of JM35 crossing the Kingsbury Grade between Genoa and Tahoe. It's 11 minutes long just crosing the peak and coming down into Tahoe. Will update when it's posted.

I really wanted to write back to say that you did a good thing by volunteering to help at the meet. Every volunteer I saw, and I saw quite a few, was working hard all week. So THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your efforts to make a welcoming event for all us V8'ers! A thousand thanks would not be enough.

I'll get a first-hand taste as a Volunteer next June when our RG, #36, National Capitol Region, will host the Eastern National Meet in Gettysburg.

They're still out there, leaving Virginia City, NV. Miracle snapshot at 30mph!

Baddest 'sleeper' on the highway!


This is why... And air conditioning, automatic overdrive. This car rings my bell!
