Hornets Nest Region was required by the Speedway NHRA schedule to change the April 2012 schedule.  There was no choice but to move the schedule to April 19-22, 2012.  HNR regrets the inconvenience that may have resulted to our Vendors and all Hobbyists - and also to other car events that were scheduled based on previous information.  The regular April schedule will return in 2013.  Great news is that the Fall Charlotte AutoFair Event moves back to September beginning in 2012 - September 20-23, 2012.  See the calendar on this website for more info. 11,000 Vendor Spaces chock full of Restoration Parts & Cars For Sale in the Blue-Orange-Green Fields!  Plus more than 1,600 Vehicles For Sale in the Car Corral on the Track Oval and additional vehicles in the Green Car Corral - All this happens Thursday to Sunday. In addition, more than 50 other Car Clubs display their vehicles on Saturday & Sunday. Don't miss this great Spring Meet event -- thousands of beautiful and rare automobiles for sale and on display.  Allow several days to see everything -- something changes every day to add more excitement to the 'fields of automotive dreams.'
