Cool Places to Go - Barber Motorsports

While we were in Alabama last week....

go ahead, I know it makes you want to sign Sweet Home Alabama...  I'll wait..



"big wheels keep on turnin...."



Get to the Chorus yet?  No?  ok, I'll wait...





alright, getting impatient...  "SWEET HOME ALABAMA"


ok, there, Chorus over.


ANYWAY, we went to the Barber Motorsports Museum

http://barbermuseum.org/

It is a cool place and yes we have been there many times.  The building itself is cool with the elevator in the middle that is big enough to hold a car inside it, and apparently also on top of it



This is looking down onto the first floor, which you cant go on, where the machine shops and race shops and working area is

But we had a great time, they have a extensive collection of Vintage and Modern Motorcycles throughout 5 floors of the museum.  They also have some cars including a huge collection of Lotus racing vehicles.

Of course it is connected to the Barber Motorsports race track and you can watch cars on the track from the museum.
