The last couple of times I was there they had the 40th reunion of the CanAm and also a bunch of cars from the F5000 era, the IMSA era, etc. I have photos of both 917 coupes and spyders there; I just can't scan them. Amalfi racing brings their 917 spyder a lot. Joe Buzzetta usually attends with a couple cars (obviously not 917s but nice, nonetheless.) There's always a bunch of Porsches of one sort or another. Frank Beck's 914-6 is one of my favorites.

'07 the feature was Porsche, not a 917 in sight. I believe you, just never seen one, unless you count that phony Kraftwerks car. There was a 908 longtail coupe there also that I was convinced was a 917 for about a half hour, then I noticed the number of cylinders. That's Joe Buzzetta's 908 above. "Mark" the older guy who takes care? of his cars, was nice enough to let us sit in it.
