Spirit of the West MCA National Show, Tucson, Arizona

Yes, we cancelled our show for March, but we already have been able to reschedule it for October 8-11th at the Casino Del Sol.  All things remain the same as originally proposed.  Motosho has been re-opened for registrations through September 18th.  No refunds after that date.  The hotel has transferred all the reservations to the new dates and you should have received an e-mail explaining that.  If you cancelled your hotel reservation, you can make a new reservation using the code "Spirit of the West."

Bay area on lockdown I hear. Not cool.
This likely will be a game changer for me, outlook not good.

I took a ride today "to keep the battery charged" (good a reason as any) in the Silicon Valley Area. It's almost like a Saturday with all the cars not on the road. When I got home, I ran into a neighbor from up the street I hadn't seen in months, and a neighbor from across the street. They had never met. They did the "elbow bump", swapped pleasantries and we all went home. See, something good came from this, neighbors finally met.

Are you going to make the trip to Fla to judge the Fun in the Sun – MCA Grand National Show September 4 - 6 @ the American Muscle Car Museum in Melbourne? It seems your show being rescheduled now means ours is no longer the last Grand National show of the year.

No, I'll be getting ready for my dive trip to Indonesia that month.  Our show will not be a Grand National.  Just like in 2008 when the Phoenix National was held in October, we're just a regular National.  You sure don't want to do it here in July!  LOL

We get complaints anytime it's not "Winter" here.

We are ramping up for our National Show in October.  We now have 151 cars (even with 50+ cancellations).  The Tucson area is doing very well with Coronavirus, and never was very bad.  All precautions are in place for the show and we are looking forward to hosting our fourth National Show.  Who is joining in the fun?

Matt and I are planning on coming.  Either fly into Vegas and drive down or just hop in the car and drive out.  Michigan cases are creeping up since everyone came up north for Labor Day.

I'll be in Tucson Sunday through Wednesday but not for the show; I have other business to attend to.  Best of luck to y'all out there!
