Street being named for Dave MacDonald!

[historicmustang]

At the third annual AIRPS celebration on September 9th at the former Augusta International Raceway a street will be named for Dave MacDonald who won here in Augusta on March 1, 1964 driving a King Cobra and placed second in Cobra CSX2259. We are trying to locate the owner of CSX2259 and extend an invitation for the Cobra to be present at the street dedication.

If anyone has contact information please send me a PM or have the owner contact me directly.

Any Cobras in the Southeast that can make the event are certainly welcomed.

The MacDonald family will be present for this street dedication and additional information can be found at: www.augustainternationalraceway.com or www.augustavintagenationals.com .

Thanks,
Henry

I believe CSX2259 is owned by Lynn Park in La Canada, CA.

Thanks so much. I will contact Mr. Park and let everyone know if the car is available for the street dedication.

Dave MacDonald Driver is under construction.

Behind Mike you can see the banking from the former road circuit. The paved section leads to the front straight that has been repaved and is the main entrance into Diamond Lakes Regional Park.

Mike is holding a piece of the former garage floor as Dave MacDonald Drive is located over the former garage where his Cobra's were parked. A larger section of the garage floor now forms the patio at the Monument that is located 100 feet from where these photographs were taken.

The Dave MacDonald Street dedication will take place at 1:00 PM but any Cobras that want to "cruise in" for display must be in place by 10:00 AM.

Souvenir street signs have been made for the MacDonald and Roberts family to keep. Sorry, but these are reflective and the flash turned the white letters dark. Trust me they are white!

The agenda is set, including the street dedication for Dave!
