National Events
Your membership with AACA permits you to participate in first class regional
and national events. These are primarily divided into Tours and
Meets. Tours are most appealing to those who like to drive their cars and
visit the designated area, touring museums, natural wonders, and other
attractions. Socialization is emphasized and usually only casual awards
are given. Meets, on the other hand, are very competitive. Cars are
judged by class based on national point standards. First, second and
third place awards are given. A First Junior award permits competing in
the Senior Division. A First Senior Award permits competing in the Grand
National Competition where the finest cars in the country are displayed.
