What makes VeloceToday special, and why should I contribute?
Last week we figured that VeloceToday is worth at least one dollar per week and asked for donations of $25 which would cover us to the end of the year. The response was truly heartening and we thank all of those who have contributed. Nevertheless, the answer to the question of “Are we there yet?” is “Not yet.”
As we begin our 10th year of continuous publication, here are some reasons why VeloceToday is worth at least a buck a week. Since January, there have been over 100 articles published, including reports of all 10 Formula 1 events. Below are just a few of the exclusive (you won’t find them anywhere but in VeloceToday) feature articles we have published this year:
The Grand Prix Talbot Darracq * The Essential Etceterini * Nardis in America * Moretti Branca * A Shared Retromobile * Intermeccanica F Jr. * Geneva Show, French and Italians * History of the March Alfa Indy cars * Charles Addams and His Cars * Gerelli’s Mille Miglia * Driving the 8C Alfa Romeo * Oliver Collins and the Villa d’Este * Le Mitiche Sport a Bassano * Merosi and the RL Alfa Romeos * Driving the Alfa RLSS * Charles Addams, the Bugatti years
Take a click. And, keep in mind that the year is only half over! There is an exciting line up for the rest of 2010.
If you donated $25 USD right now you’d cover that cost for the rest of 2010. Please take the time to contribute and keep articles like these coming to your inbox.

The 17th annual Capitol Concours d’Elegance presented by Shriners Hospital for Children-Northern California will be held in a new location along the grass median and streets of Capitol Mall beneath the state capitol in Sacramento, California September 19, 2010. The event has selected Cars of Italy & France along with the Ford Thunderbird as this year’s European and American feature. All proceeds from ticket sales, car entries, sponsorships and vendors support children in need of serious medical treatment for burns, spinal injuries and more who otherwise could not afford it. Planned weekend events include a Saturday evening reception on the 25th floor of a high rise overlooking the city and venue, Saturday morning Tour d’ Elegance and Sunday Concours where competing cars are judged per SCCA rules.
