The
Mid Maine Sports Car Club (MMSCC) began with an ad
placed in the "Camden Herald" in June of 2002. James
Lea invited the owners of British and European sports
cars to a gathering at Rockport's Marine Park on
Rockport Harbor. From that informal gathering developed
a club dedicated the the restoration and active use of
British and European sports cars. Our members own cars
built by Austin Healey, MG, Morgan, Triumph, Porsche,
Bugatti, Ferrari, Bentley, Rolls Royce, Riley, Morris,
Alfa Romeo and Jaguar amongst others.
In
June of each year we host a car show on Chestnut Street
in Camden. During the rest of the driving season we
host rallies, tours and other driving events. One of
our members is even going to begin vintage racing in the
spring of 2012.
As
individuals and as group, we enthusiastically support
the Owls Head Transportation Museum. The MMSCC always
attends the Museum's foreign car show in the fall.
Members are Museum volunteers and speakers in the
Education Series.
In
the winter, the Club meets once a month for lunch at
places like the Waterfront Restaurant in Camden. While
most of our members are from the mid coast area, we also
have active members living in Brunswick, Harpswell,
Bangor, Blue Hill, Hancock County and the Portland
metropolitan area.
Owning a sports car is not a requirement for
membership. Enjoying them is. For further information
please give me a call or send an email.
