Hersheys – The Grand Ascent Hill Climb

[Dale Schumacher]

Hey guys,
Just watched  ( Chasing Classic Cars ) and it featured classic cars doing this hill climb. Check it Out.
Anyway – for 2013 it is June 14-16 – Might make a great road trip – go on line and check it out and let me know what you think? I know it is close to the Carlisle time frame, but looks like great fun.

By the way Ed – I was just on the Carlisle site and they have a great picture of your car at the finish line during your auto cross – check it out under the Gallery section of the Kitcar show.

I’d love to go to Hershey. Vintage Grand Prix or this. Couldn’t get to the confirmation of your June dates though. Could you include a link to it?

And thanks for the tip on that photo. Pretty sure I already stole the one you’re talking about. Posted on my blog.

Here’s to getting a bevy of them in 2013!

If you want to get up and personal for a Hillclimb. There are two a year in Reading, PA. The Duruea Hillclimb
in mid-August is one I volunteer as a corner worker for. We can always use more volunteers at this event. Anyone interested, let me know. The Hillclimb Assoc. had a space right near us at Carlisle last year. It’s a fun weekend.

I gotta say that really looks like fun…….if only I didn’t live so far away.  I think I saw a TC and 2 TDs. A few Morgans also.
