I went in 2000 for the Historics and had a fantastic time. There is soooo much to do that weekend that it's impossible to do it all, so you really have to plan ahead.

If I go again, I'll do one day at the Historics and one day PB, but the thing is there racing at LS that weekend is so good, it's hard not to go to both days.

I heard they don't allow repeat cars ever.
I know they try not to have exact duplicates, but they will have the same car from different years, or a coupe and convertible. But they are selective about what they will sell. They will also sell they same car next year if it is worthy.

You have great taste. I'd pretty much dry hump every car you posted above. I was supposed to do the bull run from Orange county up to Monterrey and hang for the weekend but my car is not with me.

How was the MP4-12c in person? That car is going to be a game changer IMO.

I always thought one of the big (ugly) flaws for the Genesis was it's front bumper. Now I see it on the new McLaren again ... maybe its really really functional?

beautiful cars. I wonder what that FXX is going for ? Love that car. Is it me or is the new mclaren a bit bland ? reminds me of a lotus.

I think the FXX sold for 2.5 million.

Were you going to be in my parking garage too?


The new McLaren was very impressive and I'm sure will be quite a performer, but the styling did feel a little subtle, I was expecting it to be a bit more "supercaresque"
