I'm not sure if I'm more impressed with the cars or your phone's camera. Nice shots.

HTC Incredible for the win I didn't even use the high quality photo setting since I didn't want to resize before posting.

How was the overall turnout for the event? Were there many cars there? I get emails for their events all the time and I'm sure their events are very well put together, but I wonder how the draw is with so many other vintage racing orgs.

Turnout was very poor, I think that they had 75 racers signed up but it appears that some left before the weekend due to the rain on Thur and Fri (but no rain on Sat and Sun). I enjoyed seeing all the cars in the paddock but to be honest the racing was boring since at times there were only 6-7 cars on track.

I believe that this was the very first event for Legends, so hopefully the fields will build.

It's funny, right after I posted above I got an email from Legends stating they had a great turnout and the event was a great success. Based on your pictures the cars that did show up were very nice. Their events are priced at a bit of a premium over SVRA, HSR, etc, but that goes with their plan of attracting higher caliber race cars.
