Thanks to Larry and all the MGCC-RMC people that make this event
possible. I've been going to it for the last 7 or so years (although I
missed once because I didn't have a navigator), and I can say it is
always very well done. The events are a lot of fun, the cars are an
interesting mix, and the people are great.
