Is that rate available yet? I would like to stay at the host hotel with SAAC. My last trip was at a local hotel. - Kevin

I booked my room on 10/31/22.  I believe the group rate code is SHELBY CLUB.

From what I see it is but maybe I'm wrong.
68 350 automatic.

Thoughts?

C8ZF-12127-D perhaps?

Has a host hotel been selected?

Pittsburgh Marriott North.  There is a group rate available.  I'm heading out there Wednesday 7/12, will be there until Sunday 7/16.

I watched some amount of the auction every day.  That was by far my favorite car this year.  Just a perfect combination.

Wow.  Unbelievable video.  Thanks for posting that. 

Mine was waiting for me when I returned from MCACN on Sunday 11/20. Big thank you to all involved in putting this together. Very well done. 

I'm off to MCACN this morning. Hopefully the goods will be awaiting my return.

Thanks to all who have replied with an update. Looks like it's hurry up and wait, by and large.

Looking for any updates from anyone else who has received their 2022 "The Shelby American" Annual, specifically in the New England area. Looks like folks on the west coast started reporting received on 10/25. Not knowing how they are mailed (bulk mailing, staggered over a period of time, etc.), I'll give the benefit of the doubt for now. But since it's now 14 days since the first posting, that seems a bit suspicious.

Thanks!

Welcome back Andy. Great forum here, a wealth of knowledge is just an ask away. Have fun!

Looks like it's still open. 7 mins. from the track.  Most Ramadas I've seen are pretty bad nowadays.  Next closest hotels are in Monaca about a half hour South, assuming Super 8 and Microtel aren't in the mix.  All three closest to the track are owned by Wyndham, like the convention hotel in Indy......

Thanks for the update.  I stand corrected.  The photos in the link look pretty decent, and you can't get much closer to the track!  Eagerly awaiting updates on host hotel, etc. 

Does anyone know what the convention hotel was for SAAC 34 when the track was Beaver Run??  The reviews for the Ramada/Wyndham closest to the track aren't very good.....

Is that place even still open?  When I Googled it, it said Permanently Closed.

Do you remember where it was taken?

Mustangs Unlimited in Manchester, CT. The album I have is labeled "SAAC NE Show 2010". I have a couple engine shots and one interior shot as well.

At first I thought no but those are my plates (and thats my wife lol)  This had to be before it was restored probably 2010?

Same car?

May 2010 to be exact. Came across this in my library of old(er) photos.
