Congratulations to Ken Cahill on the class win and to Mac Jones and Frank Rabino for the Palmetto awards. Again this year the microcars made a fine showing at Hilton Head. I am told the microcar class will be done again next year. Please consider entering you vehicle for consideration to show. They are looking for a variety of different microcars. I can assure you that the staff at Hilton Head will treat you and your car just as nicely as they do the million dollar cars on display. You will not be disappointed by your trip there. Hotels are relatively reasonable and a wide variety of food and entertainment are available in the area. If you have any questions I can answer, feel free to contact me through the Crosley Auto Club web page.
