Simeone Museum Trip

I'm not sure if anyone else had heard about this but I saw it on a blog and happened to be driving someone to the Philly airport and it turns out this museum is about 5 minutes away so I stopped by. Quite a cool place although its not too huge. I know we have a lot of PA area people on here so if you are close I'd suggest checking it out, I think it runs through this weekend. Anyway onto some pics...
Pretty standard cars that you guys probably have seen before

These Mad Max looking cars were Quantum's with a 96 powertrain and err uhh 'hand-built' bodies.

There was no info behind this car but maybe Jordan knows something about it?

And some other cars that are probably recognizable

A Fiat or something on the other side of the Saab's :lol:

I can post the other non-Saab stuff but figured this may be more of interest.

Hutch, do you know what Sort of racing group the Claude Hutching's SAAB 900 Car # 84 was running in ? I am interested because it looks like it could be a lemon's car, but the tires stick out way past the body. We were hassled a few weeks ago about our tires sticking out and wonder about the rules interpretation.

It was/is an ice racer I believe but I'll check if I took a picture of the description card...

I like the white 99, looks like a less shitty version of the one I've been racing :lol:

haha, but... our 1 hour fix impressed the tech inspectors. Apparently we could have just used pool noodles like the class C winner... I think ours would have actually done something in a contact situation though.
Less brake more gas!
