Corvette Nationals 27th/28th of June

[vetteheadracer]

This weekend sees the 30th anniversary Corvette Nationals taking place at Huntingdon Race Course in Cambridgeshire.
Entry is £10 per car for non-vettes so even if you don't own one you can still come along and look, there will also be a load of other American cars on display as the show is also hosting a round of the Classic American Car of the Year competition. As you will see from the schedule below there are events taking place all weekend and not just for those interested in cars so it should be easy to sell the idea of the car show to the rest of the non-car loving family!

Maybe of particular interest to the plane loving members of the family, with the Merlin engines running over the weekend, an aerobatics display on Sunday and a fly by from the Battle of Britain Dakota.

Here is the schedule from the official programme of events.
