    Ah, you've got me beat. I've been going since '92. We always camp at the same place, by the water tank at the inner loop. Cars? First a BRG 1964 A-H Sprite, then a Mini Cooper (vintage) with a union jack roof, and now a dark green 1974 Alfa Spyder. Not my cars, although I wish they were. I ride up with my friend who owned them. I brought my Miata one year. This year my 86 Zinno ES will make the trip as the mule for all of the camping gear.

This thread came up from a search I was doing for something else and when I saw it, I thought I'd look through the pics since I've been going to the Watkins Glen event for many years. Thought that perhaps I might show up in the crowd in one of his pics. Hah! In one of his pics, there I am with my son and and an old close friend looking at a Jag in downtown Watkins Glen. We three are the only "crowd" in the photo. So? The interesting thing is, a photo of me was posted on this forum a full year before I bought my first E30 and a year and 4 months before I joined this forum. Coincidence? You be the judge. And yeah vlad, it is awesome.
            :up:

            pretty amazing ! You should check other threads from Watkins Glen that I posted from over the years.

            I just looked thru some old photos from 1991-1999, I need to scan some of those pics, they are so fun to look at

              I looked through some of your photos. Really good stuff. However, I need to stop looking at them. For the core group of us that goes in September, we're like a bunch of little kids waiting for Christmas to come. :) During the trip home, we're all ready to go back. My son tells me that Monday morning when he wakes up, he wishes he was still in the tent.
