    Join the Southwest Region of the Saleen Club of America for a great time at the 20th Annual Huntington Beach Concours d’Elegance in CA! Participation in this event has grown since last year, so we have added some fun things to do leading up to the show.

    Remember, registration deadline is Friday, May 27th. Quantity of registrations and vehicle year/type will determine subclasses. Please get them in as early as possible. If you have any questions or need hotel recommendations, feel free to email me at theheadpaneer@hotmail.com or events@saleenclubofamerica.com .

    If you didn’t make the event last year, here are a few things you can expect.

    • The show is held in HB’s Central Park, adjacent to the public library.
    • Concours proceeds benefit the Children's Library.
    • The featured marqué this year is BMW automobiles and motorcycles.
    • If you appreciate Porsches, expect to see over 150 examples as this is a major event for the So. Cal. Chapter of the Porsche Club of America. Two Porsche GTs have registered so far.
    • If you like Corvettes, the local chapter of their national club will have over 50 cars there.
    • There is always a good turnout of Ferraris and other European exotics.
    • Our class will be "street level", meaning the judges know we drive our cars to events as opposed to bringing them in on trailers.
    • Show participants receive nice goodie bags and better than average participation plaques.

    The entry deadline is just over a week away (May 27th). We have eleven Saleens lined up so far! Based on received entries, it looks like the Saleen class 22 will be divided up into ’84-’98 and ’99-’05 subclasses.

    Just added this week, Fireball Tim from Monsters Garage fame, will be in attendance with some of his wild rides, including the Son of Mask car and the 500HP Mini Mach 3.

    See the post below for a link to the entry form. Hope to see you there! :)
