A visitor from Outer Space:


Wide variety of vehicles on display inside the museum that showcase local auto history:


Outer Space looks reminiscent of a Ed Big Daddy Roth.

Love the old sprint car!

Looks like a great place. Good job!

Looks like a real gem for your city. Looking at these photos I can certainly better understand why you're proud of your involvement. Nothing would really bring me to KC unless you were to like *cough cough* host a RennRun or something. Then I might consider doing something crazy like drive my 996 to Kansas City. My 2020 is already looking stupid busy though I'm thinking of trying to organize a Vegas event for 2020 again. My timing was just bad with the 2018 effort. Do you think you/we could get something going for KC-West Coast meetup RennRun 2021? I'd love to convoy with Schnell & the gang.

Can confirm the museum is very nice. As is KC. I've been to almost all of the crappy stupid Midwest cities and KC is by far not the absolute worst.
