Thanks for posting. The one and only time I had been to Englishtown was the 2003 appreciation day. Great memories just came back to me

It's amazing how time flies. These pictures were from 2002 and 2003, more than 1 decade ago. I bet you that most of these cars are already at their third owner.

Ugh... you're telling me! Thinking about that Saturday, what I was doing, who I was with, etc... seems like a lifetime ago. I'm just happy to have been able to enjoy the last of these cars when they were new.

I was there in 2002. The last picture in your 02 pic's has a pic of my NBM 98 Camaro SS(in the middle of a white one and a SOM one). I bought it new in 98 and had it till last year when I finally sold it with only 13k miles on it. It now resides in Louisiana with it 2nd owner. Hard to believe its been that long ago as that's the only time I've ever been down to Englishtown. great memories.

I went to the October 2003 event in my friend's 96 Impala SS which is pictured in there. He bought it new and sold it around 2006 for an 05 GTO. Hard to believe it was almost 11 years ago. What a great show, never seen so many F-bodies in one spot!

I was at both events and have the T-shirt, still have the car with less than 2k on the car...the car has been all track passes since 750 miles......the 10th anniversary Firehawk might be my buddies car that I did H&C and SC and exhaust to. He still has his too

I was at the 2002 one, still have the shirt. I think, but am not sure, that "Special Edition" Trans Am you referenced might have been mine. I do remember being the only NHRA car there that day.

I remember that Camaro with the Italian flag sticker, owner was about as guido as it gets and he had a PS2 mounted in the dash, and pr0n playing on the screen while we were sitting in the staging lanes.
