Levi, looked up their website. They appear to have the exhibit until April 29, 2013

http://saratogaautomuseum.org/

Like Ellen says, could be ideal for a spring or mid-winter meet

As a matter of fact I did. I saw one coming through a checkpoint that we had set up this afternoon. It was being driven by an older women. She had to be in her sixties. It was a burnt orange color. Real nice car.

Saw a silver one a few years ago during KidsDay at WGI. I would love to have been any one of those kids lucky enough to get a ride. Wonder if they knew what they were getting into.

There was an early 70's McLaren on display at the Watkins Glen research center. I think it was an ex James Hunt car. It may still be there.
