The mall has been in decline for many years and many were surprised that the 12th annual show went off in March. Nevertheless, it was once again a popular show and many cars of yesteryear filled the mall and many of the great racers from the past joined in with fans to make the show once again a success.
According to Facebook posts, there is a signed contract for the 13th edition to occur in late February, but the latest developments put this in doubt.
Rumors have been floating around about a possible new location for the show, but there has been nothing official noted.
Race Pro Weekly will post and additional information as it becomes available.
