It's a good size meet. The classic cars meet in the front, imports in the back. And people just park there cars and look at other cars.

No racing goes on. As stated above, classics are out front from about 5-8. Then the imports take over the whole back lot. Basically just a bunch of people hanging out and having a good time. Plus it's at a restaurant so you can go inside and grab a burger, wings, salad, soda, beer, whatever you want. It's a fun time if even just to get to know other people in the area. Last week I would estimate about 60 cars.

It's a pretty good size show. It's worth at least checking it out. You'll most likely return.
