    I assume anyone with a car capable of qualifying is welcome. whether or not you have ever qualified in the past, we need all the cars we can get. also hope they lifted the non buick body ban..it is a stupid rule,

    I didn't come up with the rule, but I am it's most ardent supporter. The first year of Super-16 the winner was a Camaro with a 455. Last time that's ever gonna happen. It's not stupid, it's the most important way to identify this class as being for BUICKS, not some other brand of racecar that someone snagged really cheap and threw a Buick motor into. In fact, that rule, and the rule that they must be door cars (no dragsters or altereds) are non-negotiable for as long as I'm running this deal, and I plan on being around for a LONG time.

    Its closed minded thinking like this is why we barely have enough cars to even have an event...

    I'm jealous I'm not able to attend. That sounds like an amazing event.

    Very cool Gary. Going to update list this week after a phone conference with Derek and Dave and put in writing who at this time are committed to attending in writing. If you have a car or know someone who is not on my list please let me know as I know I am missing people and/or cars from this list. Thanks everyone. More information coming as well. Thanks to everyone in assisting us in finding cars and or people to attend/race and also in spreading the word to others about the event. I appreciate that more than you know as well as Dave, Derek, Doug and Mike.

    Making another round of calls this week. If you see I do not have a car that should be on this list please pm me or post a reply on here. Even looking through many years of videos and GSXTRAS you still miss them. This will be a blast:TU:

    For those subscribing to GSXTRA, the latest issue at least for me arrived yesterday, discusses the history of Super 16 and briefly about the reunion for 25th anniversary this October. Please let me know if you have any questions as I will begin another round of calls to the owners of the cars. Anyone I don't call or am missing from the list, please post here or contact me via PM, email (trose231@hotmail.com) or cell phone at 216 470 8844.

    Thanks. 3 months till the fun begins!:TU:

    I will try and update daily or every few days with pictures of confirmed cars.

    Heres a few pictures of cars that are slated to attend the 25th anniversary of Super 16.

    More updates to come. 2 months till BG:bglasses:

    Will be doing a Super 16 Memory Lane room at hotel TBA. In need of videos or photo albums to be show at BG at night TBA after racing to bench race, show footage/photos and all around social hour. Please email me at trose231@hotmail.com if you can help out in any way. Sponsorship $$ or donations are encouraged since there is no official money being put up for this portion of the reunion along with T shirts. Thanks in advance for anything you give to support this piece of Buick performance history.
