The track never canceled the event, they canceled Joe Marchetti. There is a
conflict between RA
and Joe Marchetti. I don't know what it is about, but it probably involves big
$$$. I will be
surprised if this doesn't end up in court.
Chicago Historics will take place, it now is a VSCDA event. It will still take
place in July, it
will still be great. It will not replace VSCDA's excellent Vintage Festival in
September.
Remember, magazines typically are 3 months late on news items, so it is hard to
depend on them
for information like this.
