Last night was the concours event for the vintage race cars running in the Kohler International race this weekend. This year easily had the highest attendance numbers, it was hard enough just to breathe let alone get a clear shot of the cars.
At times the swarms of people was simply overwhelming.
There were tons of serious machines on display, and you needed to be ready to grab the shot the instant the crowds cleared.
These Lolas are beyond cool, and it was a real treat to be able hear them running up close.
Not all cars were
completely serious, like this rare Bocar and it's Playskool steering wheel.
I have a soft spot for Datsuns, and I was a bit bummed out that there was only a few on display.
There were plenty of badass ground-shaking Trans-Am cars to be seen...
...as well as some adorable Austin-Healey Sprites.
Porsches were plentiful, as you would expect.
There were even some newer 'vintage' cars to be seen.
And if you get tired of all the crowding downtown, there is plenty of cool cars to be seen on the side streets.
...Like this Alfa Veloce...
...or this LS2 powered Morgan +8...
...or a more conventional 2.0L 4-cylinder Morgan...
...an immaculate 911 Turbo on BBS meshies...
...a Ferrari 550 Maranello...
...an MG Roadster...
...a Plymouth Roadrunner...
...a Ford GT...
...or this stunning 356 convertible...
...even some modern imports, like this widebody NSX...
...or this FD RX-7...
