Lake Placid Ski Club's 44th annual Olympic Car Show dazzles crowd

Close to 100 rare, vintage and meticulously polished cars drew spectators to the 44th annual Olympic Car Show Sunday at the Olympic Speed Skating Oval in Lake Placid. Organizers said the event benefited from improving weather: organizer Doug Hoffman noted that once unruly gray clouds moved aside, conditions turned out ideal for a show where many owners refuse to drive in the rain. Hoffman said the afternoon’s sunshine helped make the event run smoothly and made it easier for attendees to enjoy the lineup of vehicles. The brief report did not provide additional details on specific makes, models, or winners.
