What you need to know:

Location:
RENTSCHLER FIELD, EAST HARTFORD CT

(see map below)

Gates open @ 9:00 am (Please try not to come earlier because the lot will not be ready)

Gates will remain open until the beginning of awarding Trophies
Trophies by 1:30-2:00 pm

Parking:
Due to our move to Rentschler Field for this year’s show, we will no longer be limited to ~600 participants!! If you can make it to the show, you can enter!

There will be no pre-registration. If your group would like to park together; arrive early and drive in together as a group. Due to the nature of Rentscher Field’s parking lots, we cannot guarantee parking with friends, etc. If you want to park together, make sure to arrive together.

Important: This year spectator parking will be across in a separate lot outside of the lots for registered show cars. If you do not plan to register your car, you will be asked to park in the spectator area. Police Officers and club members will be there to direct you.
