2017 TA Nationals Pics

Wasn't exactly sure where to put this but here are a few pictures from the TA Nationals in dayton, OH. I havent been there for a few years but it was just as big as i remember. Lots of quality cars there. There were A TON of 2nd gen and 4th gen cars there. They definitely outnumbered the 1st and 3rd gens by quite a bit. I should have taken a few more pictures. I liked the snowflakes on our car, the polised wheel was nice to see in person how it looked, but the most memorable car for me was an 84 TA with some crazy black and gold engine. It was amazingly done. Overall it was a nice time for a 4 hour drive from Pittsburgh. If you're not too far and havent been there before, i'd recommend going.




















My wife and car out in the visitor lot.

I think my 4th picture has your red TA in it! Im torn between going back again next year or the Chevy/GM (pontiac) nats in Carlisle, PA. It's nice to see all the birds in one place though!

That would be great Tony. Glad you have to prep and transport 3 or 4 cars, and not me. It was all I could do to get there with one!

One of my favorite weekends of the year and the absolute best for Trans Am lovers. Lots of sweet cars as always.

Well now that you know what the drive is like, you'll have to enter next year! Looks like your about as far away as I am from Dayton.
