Planning on being there again next year. This will be the 40th GS nationals. We need a big turnout for this event. Hope we get better weather in May then we had last year. We don't need another rainout.

Why the change of season? (Re: 2020 Buick GS Nationals)

Dear Jim, Michael, and mid-60s Buick caregivers who roam,

This coming year the dates are May 13-16th, still in Bowling Green, KY. Anyone planning on going?

As much as I would like to go, this isn't the cards for the moment.  However I'm curious, Anybody know why the event has been switched from Autumn to Spring?

Cheers, Edouard

  The track owner changed the date, apparently they had a bigger event for the October date, I like the May date better, been going to this thing since the early 90?s  :thumbsup:

I will be there again this year. Staying at the Red Roof Inn. This will be my 36th time there, 1st year I went was 1982 missed 1991-1998( 3 young ones ) started bringing my oldest son in 1999. Too bad with all the nice 65 GS's on this site nobody comes to this event I can only count about 4 others from this sight that I've seen there. Hope to see more of you there soon. BTW my 65 convertible has been 32 of those events raced and showed, my 68 the other events.

I plan to go with or without a car. Not sold on the date change. It tends to be rainy around Derby race time.

So Starc, what's coming this year, I hope the 65 again. If you plan on holding school on the white 65 again this year I plan on being there.
