Bill O'Connell Memorial Road Rally
A relaxed country drive rather than a timed run: a set of questions, sponsor stops, sealed envelopes with playing cards for the tiebreak poker hand, and a catered lunch at the finish. Rain or shine.
Cars & Coffee presented by Classic Auto Mall
Three hours on the Radnor Hunt grounds looking at whatever people drove in, then watching the rally cars roll out. No ticket and no registration; parking is first come.
