Last year’s show was delayed a week because of weather, and it still managed to rain at various times through the day, but some very cool vehicles came out for the show. In addition to cars and trucks, there were some cool vintage motorcycles.
Here is a little taste of the action from 2009.
Sunday was a NASCAR kind of day. My Friend Pat Johnson, of Rugged Ridge, had a spare ticket (provided by one of his customers, Jack Lancaster, owner of Tellico 4×4) for the race at Talladega Super Speedway. We did a fairly fast road trip/race day… On the way about 7:00 in the morning and back home by 10:00 that evening.
But all of that is only to set a stage…
The series isn’t called Busch Grand National anymore. It hasn’t been for a few years… But the name has stuck to the controversy like sticky tires on a track…

A couple of years ago this week, I wrote about a (then) new marketing move I had been seeing. Both new home developers and owners of existing homes were offering free cars to buyers.
This weekend is the Corona Rally Mexico. If you aren’t familiar with World Rally Championship, and you are a car person, you are missing the boat. It is an incredible form of motorsport… Dirt, gravel, snow, asphalt. The cars are blindingly quick, and rather than covering the same course over and over, many of the stages are only seen once in an event.
