If you’re in the Nashville area and you like car shows, you’re going to need to know where they are.  That’s what this list is for.  Say you’re sitting around bored some Saturday night.  Just bookmark this page, then you can come here to make your plans.  I’ll try and update it as we go along.

And even if you don’t look at this page, I’ll use it myself, so it’s not going to go to waste.  Maybe I’ll see you out there this summer!
