Also, make sure to stop and say hi to the members of the British Car Club of Greater Cincinnati that will be in attendance! This group has worked hard to include us in their events the past couple of years, and we look forward to showing them our gratitude by making them feel welcome in Lexington this June.

I am checking on the british cars. I know Ken was running into space constraints so I am not sure but have an email out!
The hotel is nearly sold out and our room block is gone. A number of people called me and are upset that the price is now $179.00. But I have warned everyone about space!! The Delorean Club has 218 fooms Friday and the Bricklin club has 47. Ken is anticpating 160 Deloreans!!! We are expecting 40 plus Bricklins. Our record is 46 or so that were at Gettysburg so lets see. I have been getting a surge of phone calls in the last couple of days. EVERYONE IS CHARGED UP!!!

Due to space limitations the british car show was pulled from the docket. There will only be 5 to 7 at the show. WOW the show is comming up so fast!!!
Is there a finalized agenda with times or is the first page of this post still accurate?
