A couple of the more contemporary groups have been known to have 935s, 956/962s and an occasional 917k. The event is known to draw close to 35k spectators.
There is a race car concours Friday night in the village of Elkhart Lake that is a must attend. Roughly 100 of the competing cars get a police escort into town and back and thousands of people flock the streets to see the parade into town. Saturday night there is a street cars concours in downtown and both nights include live bands and a lively party atmosphere. I've attended every one since 1992 and participated every year since 2000.
For any car person I think it's something that you have to add to your bucket list. Even my non-car friends have a blast attending.

This This This! It is such a good time. Friday and Saturday nights downtown are some of the best car related times I've ever had. Lots to look at both cars and people. When we where there in 95 the only F50 in the country was there. I was looking at it and taking pictures when the owner gets up an says jump in.
