Shelby65_mustang Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Hello, Just looking what is offered for the Gold package, it does not look like that package would include the show n shine at Knott's Berry Farm? Or am I reading this wrong? I am looking at wanting to do all of the events but the Track and was wondering about the other items not listed under the Gold. Any response in this matter would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobra567 Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 I was just researching this event getting ready to sign up and there is an update canceling the track portion of the event and making this a one day event with car show and banquet honoring Carroll. Anybody know what happened to the track event? Is ther going to be a Knotts caravan on Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby65_mustang Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 We've heard they are still talking about doing the Knott's Berry Farm Caravan on Sunday. The Reunion will be a one day event on Saturday. Michael McGuirk will be getting back to us to update the information or have something posted on here to let us know just what the event will involve and will have the price changes. I've been patiently waiting to see this and know what to do on our end also. We are hoping to come out from WI as that will be a better time of year for us to make this drive!!

twobjshelbys Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 I was just researching this event getting ready to sign up and there is an update canceling the track portion of the event and making this a one day event with car show and banquet honoring Carroll. Anybody know what happened to the track event? Is ther going to be a Knotts caravan on Sunday? This is living below the radar screen. The initial post makes it look like there is a bunch of low cost track activity while the track part has been canceled. I would like to request that the initial post be updated with the latest news. Detals of the restructuring here: http://www.nhra.net/2012/images/Museum/FCSR-OneDayAnnouncement%202-18-12.pdf Second, what happened to cause the event to be so restructured? This was going to be the premier event and now it's a social gathering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbymotorsports Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Lets hope MM can post up the latest because even I am confused on what the itinerary is for the event.

Shelby65_mustang Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 We've been told there'll be an update and information out by the end of the week. Just have to be patient. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Rumor is that some of the track time is back on. Still no details at the museum site though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby65_mustang Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 There finally is an update to the Registration and Event on the NHRA Museum website. The museums website is: http://museum.nhra.com/ Then click on Reunions and go from there. The pricing is considerably less since the track portion is no longer being offered. As far as a caravan to Knott's Berry Farm on Sunday, I still haven't heard about that, but would be interested in that also if it is offered. I hope this helps to clear things up for everyone and I appreciate all of the feedback that I have gotten from all of you! If I am misleading or conveying the wrong information to anyone, please let me know. This is just what I have discovered tonight while researching other things. As we couldn't make the Bash in Vegas that we have attended for the last 3 years, I am hoping to see faces from that event at this one if at all possible!! It is always a pleasure to interact and enjoy time with those that have the passion for these cars as we do!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportscars Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 I was all set and even had a rental car and airfare, then when they changed it all up I cancelled everything. Now they have changed it AGAIN??? I would really like to attend, but I just can't take the risk that it will be called off again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I decided to drop out as well once the event was changed to a one day event. Now that it's back to multiple days I'm still opting out. Shame to as I think this will be a fantastic event.

Frank S Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Based on the Track Cancellation Notice I re-spent my money on tickets to the Riverside International Automotive Museum Gathering of the Legends IV, March 30, 31, April 1. If they are serious about "Vintage Vehicles Preferred" (and reducing the specified track-time by a third) they better be communicating with me about the $$ I sent.
