The Great Race started in Kirkwood, MO, this year which happens to be just minutes from my house. The race started on the 20th of June, but I’ve been to lazy to post pictures...for the past month. Anyways, I took a few pictures and hopefully you guys find something that tickles your fancy within.

Yes, that is a real 432 Fairlady right there.

You’re in st. louis, correct? The race just happened to start in Kirkwood this year! I didn’t know anything about it until I was at the Home Depot in Sunset Hills two days before the start of the race. I was with my brother and spotted that white 432 Fairlady. The owner was from Japan, spoke little to no english but had some hat pins with his team name and a tiny bit of into about the race on them. He gave me a few, I googled it and ended up looking at a shitload of cool cars that Saturday morning haha

Thank you for the dump. I was not able to stay more than 2 hours when they came through Albuquerque for their lunch stop. I only got to see 2 of the Team Japan cars. Beautiful they were.

Ever make out to cars and coffee? It’s at Westport Plaza now. Always a good show.

I only found out that there was one in the area a month or so a go so I haven’t made one yet.

Do they have good turnouts?

They just had one over this past weekend and I would have gone but was in Wisconsin. The turnout is surprisingly good. Here and here are some pictures I’ve taken at previous C&C’s. The next one is August 15th at 8 am.

How did that 2000GT sound in person?

Didn’t hear it running, unfortunately. I stayed to watch a hand full of cars take off but had to pick a buddy up from the airport after the show.
