Post those pics here boys as soon as you can. I see them scattered all over Facebook already. If you can't post pics or don't know how, feel free to send them to my email, and I will do so for you.
I took several videos along the way and from up in the stands, but they will need editing before posting, so that will be a few days.

Here's my collection:
I'd do this again in a heartbeat. What a hoot! Perhaps next year we can combine a higher-speed cruise to the Glen and dinner with a run on the track? I'll start looking for a dinner venue near Watkins Glen or on the return leg to Geneva. If we can get 15 cars on the track, they'll close it for our group and we'll have it to ourselves.
Bwaaaa ha ha ha haaaaaa!

Ahh, the vivid memories of Don's huge grin in my rear view mirror not keeping with the minimum 2 car distance. I can almost hear his wife Fran yelling at him to get off my butt. What a great time!

Quite honestly Tim, I drive faster on the Thruway and probably didnt drive faster than 70 mph. Hanging the curves is a blast! After hearing the tires screech in the turns on the first lap (and backing down) I really wish I had the rear sway bar modification. You are constrained to the car you are following and trying to maintain the two car distance to the car you are following.

I can confirm he drives faster on the Thruway, as I followed him back to Rochester.

Great job with the pictures and pulling together 2016 Wagon Feast Dave. The Thruway is straight and no curves. The Glenn has both curves and hills. Had a great time at the Car Show in Geneva after the Glen. Looking forward to seeing those pictures including your double "Dave Buckholtz" original owner of a 1966 Rambler Wagon.

Here is the last lap we did after the picture stop...taken by the Canadians behind me. (shared with me at Fest) I love how they are smiling and having a great time!
