Half naked drunken women in costume and the Fonz on roid rage.

Gee wizz, what a shock. Metallica is the Boyd of the music world.

 

I agree with ya myself, I have see na few of the shows go down hill.

I myself, don't get the whole "get*****ed up drunk and do burnouts in my car" mentality, Kinda goofy to me...

but not much you can do, and the stuff those guys are building or buying is junk, so it makes your stuff alot cooler and people notice it more!

 

What Bruce said........

 

Yeah, those half naked drunken women really chap my****. Every time I go looking for them, they're not there.

 

Pics please.

 

This is America. The land of excess. excessive lifestyles, excess habits, excessive people. Thanks to the few who enjoy ruining everything for the rest.

 

Roger, you mean like collecting excess parts in your garage
-D

 

<----- rated at over 40 MegaFonzies on the Coolometer

 

that's cause kids these days wouldn't recognze him with out his 80's rockhair.

 

Well I don't know anything about the Asphalt Show but that Scotty's Burger run show is full of quality and tastes good to!

We've always had the drunks to deal with. That will never change. BUT we didn't have the half naked women dressed like a 1940s pin up calender. I love 40s pin ups. The cool thing about it we don't have to try to be discrete about it. We don't have to******* a peek. We can gawk and drink it all in. They'd be pissed if we didn't look.

I have no problem avoiding the drunks and the guys in costume are just too stupid to try to talk to. I do enjoy some of their ingenuity in their "rat rods" that sometimes gives me ideas for my hot rod.

I'd rather be there than parked with the mega buck rods. It can be a****** to be a "middle of the roader". I do love the girls.

 

Life can be enjoyed from multiple levels of taste and style at once...my favorite tacky level T-shirt that comes to mind here says approximately
"Fast cars, fast women, and fast food...is this a great country or what?"

And an image from waaay back...tha color picture book (Genat??) of dry lakes racing pictures...in there are pictures of beautiful young women trying desperately to attract attention from their boyfriends who were busily ogling cylinder heads...
Just get rid of the real baddys, the bottle-throwers and fighting drunks. The rest are likely just normal young folks playing with the current fad in bizarre, no different than zoot suiters or juvenile delinquents of the past.
We need them to save us from the lawnchairs.

 

I dunno about where the rest of you are from, but 'round here, the only half naked women at shows are Santa Ana 'hood rats that are about 30-100 lbs overweight and are only into this scene because one of their ex-b/f's said that Betty Page was hot. So you can keep all those half naked women. Haha.

 

drunk people scare me.

 

I was JUST looking at that book last night.......great stuff! No t-shirts with logos.....and carefully look at the cars and details in the BACKGROUND....... and, all the guys have greasy, dirty jeans......
I get looked at funny cause of my dirty pants.....

OH, and chicks were hot back then too.........

 

It IS pretty cool. The Billetproof crowd is its own cool world.

 

Where are the half naked drunken women in costumes pics?!?!?!?!?!?!!!

I've been tricked!!!

 

What lil' Billy said! But then again, we might get some more of those Beers Babes and*****s shots and then I'd want to poke my eyes out with a spoon.

 

Why do these shows allow grog in anyway? Doesn't make sense.

You want trouble (or someone to drive home pissed), allow alcohol....

 

In my opinion, how wrong it may be or how right it may be, is have a show in Live Oak Florida. There is a minitruck show called UNITE! there in mid may. I went this year and it is an all out BAD**** show, but the show is half the fun. They have a river, golf karts, bike trails (for the karts too), true camping, trailor/lodge camping...and the show field is PERFECT. Between having plenty of room for i'd say 400 cars, and its formed like a concert field. Low in the front, with a raised portion, its sweet really.

You could control the crowd to your liking, as it's in the middle of nowhere, and noone that isn't into it...probably won't go. We had a blast, with ONLY minitrucks, and the families that camped. The groundspeople were understanding, and didn't mind the alcohol, though they DIDN'T want property abuse.....which mostly was under control. Being a dry county, liquor is NOT sold, don't believe beer is either. This would limit the consumption, but people COULD bring it in. You can't completely say no alcohol but the dry county deal helped.

It's a great atmosphere, and it really is a perfect show ground. Possinly a south east Hamb bash for the fall of next year??

 

you got it babe.....see ya at the PILEUP// bring binoculars...its cold in the middle of Oct!!!!!

 

Funniest thing I read all day!

 

I can vouch for that. Though those nut shots can tend to hurt a bit.

I strongly disagree, at least on the east coast. I enjoy the occasional brew at a car show with my friends, as much as I enjoy the occasional smoke show. I do not however consider my or my friends cars junk. Nor do I feel that I disturb the peace anywhere I go. IMO burnouts and beer are part of hotrodding.

However, I do notice the fall down drunks breaking their rides and doing more harm than good for their "rep." I guess my point is that its not wise to generalize.

Hows this for a 1940's pinup?

 

Now I'm not going.

 

I think you meant "microscope"...








C'mon, you beat me to the punch so I had to get ya!!

 

but orca betty's are so hot! especially when they are all strapped in with the pudge going everywhere that is secured with a tie down.

 

Wait till you go to the Round Up..

Nor- Cal is Awesome when it comes to car shows in California..We have a few grate shows Like Primer Nats and Axels Suade Palace ..But the general
"Scene" is Dead!! Too much Primer and***** boxes and not enough Detailed cars, Hot Pin Ups Like Heidi Van Horn and Dayna Deluxe who deserve to be in the spot light are in compition with chicks that look like they ran into a brick wall just cause they like to show off the stanky**** in some******s..I go to allot of a shows to look at cars but when handfull of cars are over powered but all the beaters its hard to realize how good a show is..
And then there is the attitude..and I don't even want to takl about it..

 

Most of the shows I attend do not allow alkamahol. One show in particular does a quick check of your vehicle and coolers before they will let you in. Not saying it's impossible to get booze in, definately helps cut down on the dipsh!ts.

 

I've got a pretty good zoom on my camera so I'm not worried
