A visit to Barber Motorsports Museum

If you're within 200 miles of the place, it's a must visit.

Nice collection. I don't remember seeing a VF1000R since I sold mine. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. Went to the Penske museum in AZ. Nice collection also, but smaller and more focused. We couldn't take pictures of any of the cars that had tobacco sponsership.

Why is that?

Apparently it is part of the anti-tobacco advertising deal that was struck. If the cars have tobacco advertising, and many of the Penske cars do, you can't create an image of them. I thought I saw a similar deal with the Indy 500 100th year celebration. If I remember correctly they had to remove the winning cars with tobacco sponsership from the "winner's grid" before the official picture/poster shot was made.

I remember when I saw a 85 interceptor for the 1st time, it looked like something from the future. It still looks great.

Bama's best kept secret! Been there twice. Breath taking... :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
