The 2025 edition of the Saratoga Automobile Museum’s popular Racing Memories program (formerly Lost Speedways) is set for Saturday, November 29th with an all-star slate of topics.

“We’ll have six segments that I’ll kick off with a bit titled “The Good Old Days Weren’t All That Good,” said organizer Ron Hedger.  “We received a thumb drive from the family of George Lester, a former track photographer at the Fonda Speedway alongside Russ Bergh, that has some terrific but scary shots from the 1950’s and early 60’s.  The photos should trigger a lot of memories for old-timers and we thank Don Lester for sending them along.”

One of the most legendary concept cars in automotive history is emerging from the depths of the GM Heritage Collection and heading straight for the spotlight at the Saratoga Automobile Museum. As part of the new exhibition Speed - Style - Legacy: The Corvette Story, visitors will have the rare opportunity to come face-to-face with the jaw-dropping 1961 Mako Shark I Corvette — a vehicle as bold and unforgettable as the ocean predator that inspired it.

McPherson College, located an hour north of Wichita, Kansas, is offering an unparalleled opportunity for car enthusiasts and aspiring mechanics. The college is home to the nation's first and only four-year automotive restoration program, where students breathe new life into classic vehicles, such as a 1953 Mercedes-Benz 300S Cabriolet and a 1965 Porsche 356C. In this unique program, students don't just learn mechanical skills; they also delve into the art and history of automotive design, honing their abilities as both mechanics and detectives.
