Possibly the most famous car to appear at the Concorso was the Boyle Special that won the Indy 500 in 1939 and 1940. It was a Maserati 8CTF driven by the legendary Wilbur Shaw. As we shall see, some other legends showed up for the event. The car was somewhat reluctant to start but did cooperate to everybody’s great pleasure.
Memories of Cars in Santa Fe, NM. (and elsewhere)

Your correspondent lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico for a long time. One of the great things about Santa Fe is that it is an excellent town in which to be a car geek. The premier attraction while I was living there was the Santa Fe Concorso, held from 2010-2016 on the expansive grounds of the Las Campanas Club and Golf Course.
