I talked with the organizers of the event this past weekend. They said they had over 400 cars last year. The best part is the event its FREE.

Here's the info:

I forgot about this one. I happened across last year by accident and it was huge. There were cars, trucks, bikes, rods, a few rat-rods, food, raffles and some of those air-filled jumping things to keep the kids occupied. I think they even had a portable dyno there. I might try to hit this one on Saturday if it fits the rest of my weekend schedule.

Cool, may have to try and make this one, as long as nothing comes up on Saturday, but I think I'm free.

One quick question, since its so close we cant print and send in the form, I'm assuming they allow non-pre registered cars right?

I'll confirm that.

I registered at the show last year. I happened upon it in my Galaxie while dropping my gilrs off at a play date in the area. Then went to the show, registered, hung out, left to pick up my girls and brought them back to the show for a while.

Same here, plus I have to drop off my girls at a B-day party around noon so I'll be a little late to the show.

Decent turn out for the show, even though mother nature wasn't very kind to us.

The show was too long IMO but other than that a decent time.
VanillaRT once again took a trophy in the 97+ modified class. The rest of us there in the 97+ stock class lost to a pt cruiser and neon :tdown:

Here's the photos I took

I did that show 2 years ago with my fiance and his friend. Neither one of us won anything which was really hard to believe because my fiance had is 05 Saleen and his friend had a 68 vette. I usally win at lease something at judged shows, so I was alittle turned off by doing this show agian.

I was hoping we could keep that hush-hush...#-o

I should have asked for a copy of my judging sheet to see how they were rating cars. If it was the pt cruzr I think it was, there was enough chrome and other bling on it that I don't know how it managed to remain in the "stock" class.

Oh well, it was a free show and there were some cool cars there, even beyond those from the NextGenMuscleCars entrants...Good seeing you guys there!
