    Here are a few to start with. By the way, if you haven't attended this show I'd suggest forming an opinion based upon experience. I'd hate to have you miss something you might actually enjoy. This opinion from a 62 year old FNG who has actually attended a few times.

    From these shots it's hard to believe it's the same show. Thanks for sharing!

    Thanks for the positive comments. I've noticed at most car shows people take photos of what they like. I usually prefer a variety of photos since not everyone likes the same styles. I'm just a car guy and actually get a kick out of most "cars" at Viva Las Vegas. There are some "sights" at the show but most folks just having fun in their own way. Maybe we're too serious sometimes. The Shifters work really hard to pull this off and you can't please everyone.

    Here are some more from the show. ENJOY!

    Great pics for a 6mp camera,can't wait to break my camera in.I just picked up a Samsung SL30 10.2 Megapixel with a shitload of great functions and modes.By the way,don't take my response to your "tag" comment to seriously.Just tired of all the BS over the Viva threads.I would like to go through pics of a car show without someone bringing a thread down with negative comments,and you pointing that tag out in the photo you took is asking for people to start in with negative comments.

    thank you, thank you very much, that's more like the VLV I remember... if anyone cares and they go back and look at the pics I posted from there a few years back, it looks a lot more like this...
