EFV-8 Club of America 2015 ENM in Charlotte/Concord, NC, June 8 - 11
 

I'm all registered and looking forward to attending. Just wondering how many other Fordbarners are also planning to attend this meet?

Keep in mind that you do not have to be registered for this meet nor even a member of the Early Ford V-8 Club to come and see the cars on the show field, Wednesday, June 10th, 8am to 4pm, in the terrace area behind the Charlotte Motor Speedway, about one mile from the host hotels.

Thanks for reply. I was wanting to take my grandson to the show. He likes early Fords. Me and wife is raising him, his mother is unable. My grandson goes to charter school w/ the snow days we had this year. He will needs to be at school. I guess we will not be able to make to the show. I always take w/ me. He really enjoys looking at the cars. To bad the show is not on the weekends. I will be able to take him to the Goodguy show in April at Raleigh, Nc. All there shows are on the weekends. The Goodguy shows are always family friendly.

At the Goodguy shows see cars from all over. There cars from Florida to New York state. Sometime you can see cars from California. It always nice see cars from other states.

Greensboro is not that far from Charlotte/Concord, maybe 1-1/2 hour drive at the most on the Interstate. Bring your grandson to the host hotels on Sunday. Should be plenty of cars arriving early to see in the hotel area parking lots that afternoon and evening. Another possibility will be after school is over on Wednesday. The concourse show doesn't end until 4pm. After that, from 5 to 6 pm, many of the cars will be doing some laps on the Motor Speedway track. There will also be plenty of cars to see that afternoon/evening back at the hotels. Think about driving one of your old cars down. Many of us in the EFV-8 Club are also interested in hotrods. Usually, where there is a will, there is a way.

Thanks for trying to make thing work out for me. It will not work. The traffic is kind of rough during business hours it will take longer to get there. My grandson has a lot of homework at this age. That is more important then any car show. The big thing is get back in time to go to bed. It is hard to go to show during the school day. Maybe one day it will work out.

We went to the Moonshiner show. He had at great time. Saw a lot cars from all over the place. It always great to walk around cars and not have rush to get back home. It was very nice weekend. The Goodguy show is coming up in Raleigh and we will doing that show. That is fun for whole family.

Is this show open to public or is for Early Ford Members only. Last time it was in Charlotte you had to special pass to get in the show at speedway. Thanks for reply.
