SUMMARY:The IMRRC Announces 5th Annual Model Car Show
DESCRIPTION:WATKINS GLEN\, N.Y. (March 1\, 2018) – “WATKINS GLEN RACING: A 70TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION\, in miniature!” is the theme for the 5th Annual Model Car Show at the International Motor Racing Research Center on Friday and Saturday\, April 13th and 14th. \nHundreds of cars will be on display at the annual show at the Center\, 610 S. Decatur St.\, Watkins Glen. Admission is free. Hours will be noon to 7 p.m. on Friday and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday. \nThe two-day event will include models\, die cast cars\, and slot cars that represent decades of effort by enthusiasts to faithfully recreate the machines that have been integral and synonymous with Watkins Glen racing history.  You’ll almost be able to smell the racing fuel and hear the thunder of the exhaust. \nAdding to the excitement will be a return visit by the Slot Car Club of the Twin Tiers.  There will be a challenging and fast slot car track on which all attendees are welcome to test their skill. \nThe event will also feature a display of Porsche race cars from the IMRRC’s Ron Radcliffe collection. \nPrior to his passing\, Ron generously donated his personal collection of more than 200 completed model cars and 50 kits focusing on Porsche\, his favorite marque\, to the Research Center. His extensive model collection along with books and videos serve as a memorial of his many years of collecting and building 1:43 scale models. \nThe Racing Research Center is an archival library dedicated to the preservation and sharing of the history of motorsports\, of all series and all venues\, through its collections of books\, periodicals\, films\, photographs\, fine art and other materials. \nFor more information about the Center’s work and its programs\, visit www.racingarchives.org or call (607) 535-9044.

SUMMARY:2nd Annual Model Car Show at IMRRC
DESCRIPTION:WATKINS GLEN\, N.Y. (March 23\, 2015) – The International Motor Racing Research Center is hosting its 2nd Annual Model Car Show Friday through Sunday\, March 27-29. \nOscar Koveleski\, co-creator of Auto World\, the beacon for model car hobbyists of all ages in the 1960s\, ’70s and ’80s\, will speak at 1 p.m. on Saturday\, March 28. \nAdmission to the show and to the talk is free. Show hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. The Racing Research Center is located at 610 S. Decatur St.\, Watkins Glen. \nUpwards of 30 exhibitors are expected\, with some exhibits changing each day. \nA new feature this year is People’s Choice Awards\, organized by Keystone Cards of Sayre\, Pa. Owner Rich Chernosky is moving the awards and his annual Model Car Concours d’Elegance from the September Watkins Glen Grand Prix Festival to the Racing Research Center’s spring show. Koveleski’s Saturday talk will focus on Auto World\, the mail order company he co-founded in 1958\, after growing up in his father’s Scranton\, Pa.\, hobby shop and model manufacturing business. Koveleski says the first catalogs\, in\n1959\, were produced by him and his wife\, Elaine\, on their kitchen table and an ironing board. \nThe annual Auto World catalogs are vividly and fondly remembered by subscribers. \n“They were filled from cover to cover with slot cars and go-fast parts\, as well as model cars\, supplies\, and full-length articles on everything from tuning slot cars to detailing plastic models\,” Kurt Ernst wrote for Hemmings Daily last year. “The 30th edition of the catalog\, issued in 1978\, featured stories on how to build an HO-scale replica of Watkins Glen and how to craft HOscale car bodies out of heavy-duty aluminum foil\, ideal for those seeking added rubbing-is-racing realism.” \nUntil the last catalog was published in 1991\, Koveleski was the go-to guy on slot cars\, model cars and radio-controlled cars as he promoted events all over the United States and internationally. That is\, when he wasn’t earning victories in racing series such as Can-Am. Koveleski’s talk is presented as part of the Racing Research Center’s Center Conversations series. \nUpcoming talks include Martin Rudow speaking on April 18 about racing in the Pacific Northwest. He is author of “Long Straights and Hairpin Turns\, The History of Northwest Sports Car Racing” and publisher of Vintage Drift magazine for SOVREN\, the Pacific Northwest’s largest and most active vintage racing club. \nOn Sept. 12\, Koveleski returns with acclaimed motorsports reporter Pete Lyons and Jack Deren to headline a daylong program celebrating Can-Am racing. Deren was chief mechanic for Koveleski’s Team Auto World McLaren. \nThe Racing Research Center is an archival library dedicated to the preservation and sharing of the history of motorsports\, of all series and all venues\, through its collections of books\, periodicals\, films\, photographs\, fine art and other materials. For more information about the Center’s work and its programs\, visit www.racingarchives.org or call (607) 535-9044. The Center also is on Facebook at “International Motor Racing Research Center” and on Twitter at “@IMRRCatWG.”\n#
