Blessed with beautiful weather and joined by thousands of our friends, the 2008 edition of the YearOne Experience has to be considered the biggest and best yet. The show car field was packed, a record number of vendors participated in the Manufacturer's Midway, and all the various activities around the Road Atlanta facility were very busy all weekend. We even set a record for spectators - which is quite amazing considering the YearOne Experience is primarily a participant-driven event.

So a big Thank You to everyone who made this year's happening such a success, and here's hoping 2009 is even better!

We've assembled quite a bit of coverage of the '08 Experience here for your review. Check it out, and feel free to send your suggestions and comments to us here.
