2004 Taj Kreuzer Photos

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!
The 2004 Taj Kreuzers is where everyone won. The Kreuzers raised a whopping $50,336 for the Miami Valley Ronald McDonald House this Kreuzers weekend.

The very special winners in our Taj Raffle started with Don Boeke, who drove home the 2004 Red VW Beetle Convertible. Dohn Roush is now the proud owner of the fancy Tag Heuer sports watch and Kirby Gaboury has some new smiling Ben Franklins in his wallet.

Friday night there were 209 cars in the Quaker Steak & Lube Corral, over 100 of which were Porsches, and another one hundred plus outside of their parking lot! Eighty-two Cicada Killer Tour cars rumbled through the back roads to join the the Concours at the Carillon Park Saturday afternoon. With their arrival, the cars topped over two-hundred in attendance.

We didn't have time to sleep in Sunday morning. Thirteen cars ran the the drag races at Kil Kare. Another fifty-three smoked their tires on the asphalt at the Autocross. Well over one hundred interested folks poked their noses in the Taj that day as well.

Great people, great cars, great weather! Incredible sponsors! Tireless volunteers! Everybody won.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
