 We did this event last year. Great time. They have vintage car racing through town early in the weekend. No group activities other than the laps around the track, which was a blast. There is on track racing all weekend, a car show, and access to the pits. We walked the gorge as well as drove around one of the finger lakes and stopped at a lakeside park to have lunch. We highly recommend going.
