8/7/25 Event Coverage Update:
The BaT team made its first trek out to Clear Lake, Iowa, for this year’s Clear Lake Auto Social Society (CLASS) Car Show & Summer Dance Cruise this past weekend. With nearly 800 cars for Friday night’s cruise around the lake and 500 for the next day’s car show downtown, fans of all things automotive had plenty to see over the course of the two-day event.
BaT contributor @kobus took the trip of a lifetime to this year’s Le Mans Classic, and came back with a bunch of new friends and a massive collection of wonderful images to share. He managed to secure a coveted red press vest for the event, and certainly made the most of it! We are happy to live vicariously through his adventures, and we’re sure you will be too. Take it away, kobus!
Circuit de la Sarthe—Le Mans, France, July 4-6, 2025
September 14, 2025—The Bridgehampton Museum, Long Island, New York
A little over a week ago, in the wake of the epic Bridge IX show, we set up shop next to @1600veloce for the Bridge Cars and Coffee and watched with delight as hundreds of incredible vehicles and even more happy spectators filled out the field. The site: the Bridgehampton Museum’s Corwith House, an antebellum farm on the South Fork of Long Island. Our hosts for the morning provided live music, vendors for food and drink, and ample space for a smorgasboard of four-wheeled goodies.
After his coverage of this year’s Le Mans Classic, we thought that kobus had been to the top of the mountain. But his enthusiasm continues unabated, and he played a big role in thie year’s Lime Rock Historics—behind the scenes, behind the lens, and behind the wheel. Here’s his coverage of the event, which included some very interesting cars that came up on last week’s episode of the BaT Podcast with Donald Osborne like the Drinkwater “Le Monstre” replica and the Cunningham C4RK coupe.

We’d like to extend a special thanks to Larz Anderson Auto Museum and the BaT community in the greater Boston area for the wonderful venue and turnout we had for our last Meet-Up of 2025 on Saturday, October 25.
When @mbaum and @bronson asked us to help sponsor the third iteration of their now-annual Italian car show in Los Angeles, Macchinissima, we were happy to oblige. A few lucky staffers were able to make it out for the festivities and brought back glowing reports. The rest of us can be happy to live vicariously through this event coverage, compiled from narratives by Alex Enaceanu (@Socalfisti on Instagram) and Andrea Petersen, with photos by Evan Klein (@AlfaEvan), Rami Garcia, Aaron McKenzie (@awmckenzie), and Adrian van Anz (@invstor17).

Event Coverage 2/27/26:
After days of uncharacteristic rainstorms and high winds, the Palm Springs area pulled the nicest day imaginable out of a hat for us on the morning of Saturday, February 21. Cars of all shapes and sizes gathered from the famous playground at the feet of the San Jacinto Mountains, the outer reaches of the Coachella Valley, and from points as far afield as Arizona and the San Francisco Bay Area.

Round two for 2026 is in the books, folks. Our friends at BaT Local Partner Alara Garage were great hosts, as was the city of Houston—offering perfect Texas spring weather and a near-impossible variety of excellent food to be had.
