If it's the British Car Week that I'm thinking about... It
started with Peter Eagan (regular cloumnist for Road & Track)
lamenting that he doesn't see any old sports cars any more...
We goodly scions hit upon signifying a special week where we would
drive our LBCs everyday to work. It's about as organized as
electrons in a Lucas voltage regulator... Those Wisconsin scions
would drive over to Madison and parade around (whether anything
concrete ever came of that idea I don't know).

I belive it's either 5/4-5/10 or 5/12-5/16

Do it, Ken... I'll call Road & Track and let them know it's gonna
happen...
Fellow Worldly Scions... How many are going to take part in BCW?
