21st Annual Mustang Roundup-That's Cars Not Horses!

It was a great turnout for the 21st Annual Rocky Mountain Mustang Roundup held in Steamboat Springs this weekend. The events started with a mountain tour followed by an Autocross. Spectators could easily tell the experienced from the inexperienced drivers as they either sped up or came to a screeching halt around the turns of the track. The highlight of the weekend was the Show-n-Shine Car Show on Lincoln Avenue in downtown. More than 450 vintage restored Mustangs were judged for their cleanliness, craftsmanship and quality. Any car lover would have been impressed with a Denver couple's automatic 1970 Mach 1 Twister Special Mustang with a 428 Super Cobra Jet engine. This unique vehicle is only one of 24 known of its kind. This was a fun, free event for the whole family. If you missed it this year mark your calender for 22nd Roundup in 2010.
