TWO Great Events This Week!
This is another one of those weeks that we wish we could be in two places at the same time.
MECUM AUCTIONS LARRY'S LEGACY 2025 AUCTION
First off, the Mecum Auctions team is hosting what may be one of the most unique auctions of the year. We have had the honor of hosting some really cool cars from the Klairmont Klassics Museum in Chicago at the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show over the years. A truly unique collection, it is all being offered in the Larry's Legacy 2025 Auction Friday, September 19 - Sunday, September 21. We have enjoyed viewing this collection, which includes an incredibly diverse variety of vehicles ranging from full classics to Muscle Cars to some of the wildest customs ever built. And that's not all! Larry loved scooters, signs, mannequins, bicycles, juke boxes and so much more. The museum has all kinds of special feature displays and everywhere you look there is something cool. It all crosses the block right inside the museum. While this is not the usual open to the public auction, (due to space and location it is limited to registered bidders only) you can catch the action on Mecums Live Block Cam starting Saturday at 11:00 am. The final public preview day is Friday, so if you can, we highly recommend checking it out and better yet, register to bid as this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
For full details on the auction including how to register to bid and full listings of every vehicle and all of the amazing road art, go to www.mecum.com

MID AMERICA MOTORWORKS FUNFEST
The name says it all for this annual event, held at the Mid America Motorworks campus in Effingham, Illinois. Corvettes of every generation will take over the town for a fun-filled weekend. The event takes place Saturday, September 19, and Sunday, September 20. The Yager family knows how to throw a party, and this year the schedule is jam packed. Seminars, great food, several road tours and the Saturday night concert are a few of the highlights. Of course, row after row of cool Corvettes will certainly put a smile on your face, whether you are bringing your own or just want to check them out. They will also host a "Fireside Roundtable" chat with some of the Corvette key engineers and they celebrate with a special spotlight to commemorate the 70th Anniversary of the iconic small block Chevy engine. This will be all about having family fun, sharing stories and showing off America's favorite sports car! For all the information go to www.mamotorworks.com

PURE STOCK MUSCLE CAR DRAGS
Congrats go out to Dan and Dennis Jensen and Lyndon Hughes for hosting the 31st Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Race at Mid Michigan Motorplex last weekend Great weather, a well prepped track and a whole lot of horsepower made for a truly outstanding event. And next up is our awesome PSMCDR Invitational display at MCACN, where you can get up close and personal with the cars and the racers! Donny Brass has again stepped up to coordinate this for us. As always, one of the most fun and interactive parts of our show! Check out www.psmcdr.com to learn more about it.
WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Unlike a typical trade show, the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals are gate dependent. That means we need YOU to help us spread the word and invite your friends and family to join us. One way is to share our facebook and Instagram posts. I may be bragging here but we believe we have something really special (thanks to all of you!) and we want to keep the momentum going. It only takes a few minutes or a click or two, but your endorsement goes a long way!
PRESALE DISCOUNT TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE NOW
You can purchase advance sale discount tickets now through our website or if you prefer actual "hard" tickets, through several outlets. We will also be adding two new outlets in the Chicago area, so stay tuned for details. Either way you can save $5.00
per Adult admission ticket and don't forget, Kids 12 and under always get in free with an Adult and Sunday is our Military Appreciation day with FREE admission for all active and retired members of our armed forces, with appropriate Military I.D.
Next Week; Corvette Central celebrates another milestone for the Corvette world!
