Q:
I got this email from my local Z club - thought you all would like to attend:
Feel free to pass this along to your other car club members if you think they would have interest or paste it on a car club web site or add it to your club event calender.
Check out the enclosed PDF on the poster for the 06 Mitty. This is the biggest vintage racing event in the United States. MARK YOUR CALENDAR. All car clubs welcome, this goes on for three days with a huge infield auto festival at ROAD ATLANTA.
Look at the great HSR web site: http://www.hsrrace.com/

Should you have interest in being a vendor at the infield auto festival that goes on during the races please contact Joe Gearin at grmjoeg@aol.com Spaces fill quickly so make a reservation.
Last year was a tribute to Triumph and MG and we had 450 race cars plus about 400 to 700 cars participating with their various clubs. 06 will see the super fast Nissan and Mazda and Toyota GTP and GTP light cars plus many racers from the 50s and 60s and up.
The 2006 Classic Motorsports Mitty is just around the corner and now is the time to make plans—clear the schedule, arrange hotels and organize a travel party for the April 28-30 Road Atlanta event. The Mitty is designed to entertain both the racer and the spectator, as action will take place both on and around Road Atlanta’s 2.54-mile track.
While the HSR historic racers will circle the track throughout the weekend, the main competition event will be The Sports Cars of Japan feature races. More than 400 historic racecars of all nationalities will be on display and racing throughout the weekend. But the racers aren’t the only ones getting special treatment during The Mitty.
The infield of Road Atlanta will be transformed into The World of Sports Cars, featuring The Sports Cars of Japan with areas representing America, Britain, France, Germany, Japan, Italy and Sweden. Contact us today to reserve a spot for you.
In addition to the race and club fun, Classic Motorsports magazine has several other activities scheduled for The Mitty, including a vendor row, Saturday night party, silent auction and magazine project car display. If you get the hankering to get on track, parade laps and hot laps can be purchased in advance or the day of the event. And as always, FREE Ride and Drive autocross opportunities will be available throughout the weekend.

A fun event, but I seriously doubt the "biggest vintage racing event in the United States" title. That said, I'll be there.

This event will happen April 28-30 and has grown by leaps and bounds since Classic Motorsports magazine has been involved.
