Watkins Glen Grand Prix Re-enactment

What time will they start?

The vintage cars arrive in downtown Watkins Glen at 4:30pm, the cars will be parked on the main street and the public will have until 6:00pm to view the cars, the engines start at 6:10 and shortly after the cars leave for a two lap re-enactment of the orignal grand prix course. It's noisy but fun to watch vintage cars drive by a few feet from where you may be standing.

Look for Rick & Laurie from New Hampshire (they were at Ted's in Buffalo in July, and at the Finger Lakes Run). Also Nichole and family are likely to be there, along with Jim from Trumansburg.

Have fun! I wish I could go...

We will be downtown Watkins Glen early Fri.

We always try to park on 4th st. It's one way and blocked off from Rt. 14 but we go to the other ond and back in. (sometimes around the baracade)

Great time, See you there. Look for a 2007 yellow mini cooper S
