June 16 to June 20th 2010 BRICKLIN /DELOREAN MEET; LEXINGTON KY
Every meet is successful in its own way but the 2008 Bricklin Delorean meet in Gettysburg was the most successful in terms of participation. We had a total of 47 Bricklins at the show. This was the most Bricklins that I have seen in one place. Toronto did have 51 cars in 1991and Frankenmuth in 1994 had 44 cars. But other than these meets; we average about 34 cars per show.
There were quite a few complaints concerning the Gettysburg show so I want to stress what we have done differently!
The meet hotel is the Marriot at Griffin Gate in Lexington Ky. This is the same one as the Delorean Club. So we will all be in one hotel. That was the major issue last meet that we were at a different hotel. That mistake has been rectified, only gullwing owners will be staying at the Marriott.
Our hospitality suite will be at the host hotel along with the Delorean hospitality suites. All Suites will be open to all Bricklin members. This includes the Back to Future store/museum, Delorean electric car display, Delorean car show museum and the Delorean Car Show hospitality suite.
Now that we are at the same hotel! There will be a DJ in the parking lot on Thursday/Friday night!
Separate banquet and welcome parties will be for Bricklin owners only!
There were also lots of compliments:
People loved driving around with all the other Gullwing cars! Passing Bricklins and Deloreans on the road and waving.
The show was huge with over 200 Gullwing towns
Lots more to do
Lots more to see
Bus tours
Bigger show with lots more people and much more excitement
Here is what we have planned for the show so far:
Herb Grasse and Tom Monroe will be giving an expose on the Bricklin design and engineering. This will be an incredible assortment of some never seen photos on Bricklin design and production.
Delorean design and production discussion that Bricklin owners are invited to attend!
Bus Tour of the Lexington bluegrass Parkway which includes a special stop at a private horse farm. Driving tour to the Kentucky Horse Farm! Only two miles from the hotel and caravan to Bourbon distillery!
Back to the Future personalities walking the show.
Bricklin and Delorean Grand show; In 2008 it featured 47 Bricklins and 157 Deloreans. We will also have a co-meet with a large regional British Car show. Indications are that they will have a third show with all types of classic cars. The objective is to have over 400 cars at the show.
The sheer joy as to driving around Lexington with 200 Gullwing cars.

Finally got around to posting the pictures I took at the meet. Sorry for the delay but when you don't feel good all the time it takes awhile to do things.
Hope you enjoy them.
