Ralph and I spent the past few days in Springdale/Fayetteville finalizing the plans for British V8 2024. We drove both of the drives that we have mapped out for you. You're gonna like 'em! Lots of curves, hills and scenic views.

The Arkansas Dragon's Tail is a bit shorter than the Tail that we're all familiar with. But more elevation changes, and a few corners that are actually sharper/tighter than what we've come to know and love at Deal's gap. 'Nuff said - you'll have fun on both of the 'em.

Lunch on both drives, plenty of places to stop for fuel or bio breaks.

Other things to do - see the schedule image here.

Questions - contact Wayne at 214-236-0232 or Ralph at 254-722-8804 or email w.kube@verizon.net

Ask for the British V8 rate - $109 per night. Call to get this rate - you probably won't get it if you try to book online.

Registration for British V8 2024 is now open!
Posted by: wkube
Date: April 05, 2024 05:23PM

On-line registration is now open. Go to [britishv8meet.org] and click the drop-down registration heading. You can directly register on-line via PayPal (a fee is charged to the hosts) or you can print the pdf and mail it in.

By the way, we'd like to gather as many factory built V8s as possible (MGB GT V8, Triumph Stag, Jensen-Healey Interceptor, Jaguar, etc.) If you have one, please consider bringing it. Or if you know of some who has one, please encourage them to attend.

And you don't need to have a V8 in your car - any modified British car, 4 cyl, 5 cyl, 6 cyl is welcome!
