They did make some big improvements to the field after that disaster a few years ago, according to Speed Channel, along with some help from the city folks.
Last year I was able to make the auction in West Palm, no doubt the best car show that I've ever been to! Walking away, I didn't get the feeling the cars were over priced, the were plenty of bargains in the earlier days. Have fun Rich, bringing a trailer with you? WB
