The main gate at Schenley Drive and Forbes Avenue intersection opens each day at 9:30 AM and cars are displayed until 5:00 PM. Event held rain or shine.  200,000 spectators fill the golf course and surrounding streets to experience car shows and vintage racing honoring that of the origins of sports car road racing in the 40’s and 50’s. The races through Schenley Park are considered by many to be one of the most challenging race courses. 22 turns, almost a dozen elevation changes,  telephone poles,  stone wall and manhole covers make the the 2.33 mile circuit entertaining to watch and difficult to navigate.

Top 4th of July Fireworks in U.S.A.

Every year, the 4th of July brings people together for hot dogs, cold beer and to celebrate the founding of the United States. No celebration would be complete though without an awesome fireworks show! That’s why the guys and gals down here at eimports4Less have put together our top five list of must see shows.

Number 1: Chicago. In my opinion, this is the best show on Earth. The Windy City is also my hometown…so maybe I’m a little biased! Watch the show from Navy Pier or Oak Street Beach.

Number 2 is New York City. Watch this show from the NJ side of the river for the best views and backdrop for your photos.

Number 3 is Philadelphia. This is one of the best shows in the country and for good reason…it is the birthplace of our nation after all! The show at Penn’s Landing is always great and you’re just steps from cold beers on South Street.

Number 4 is New Orleans. This city knows how to party and they go overboard for their July 4th celebration. The city puts on a great show over the Mississippi river starting a little after 9pm, so get to Woldenberg Riverfront Park early and find yourself a riverside seat. The live music and food trucks start at 4:30.

Number 5 is St Louis. This city does fireworks right…and that’s just the beginning! St Louis puts on a three day festival filled with live music, cold Budweiser air shows and a parade! Here’s a link to all the St Louis festivities:
