Brian Blain spoke about his Nationals, answered questions, and gave rides to anyone daring enough to jump into the mechanic’s seat. National was a luxury car that had a glorious, but relatively short-lived competition career from 1910-1913.

Dickinson outlined the history, present, and future of Singer before offering laps in a restored custom Singer 911.
