    It was a great show this year, and HUGE! It was packed to the limit. Congratulations to the Chupacabra's on another success.

    Also congratulations to my friends Grits, Dirty John, and Wayne Killebrew. They all tried like hell to get their cars ready and running for the show, but fell just a little short in the end. That didn't stop them from loading up and bringing their cars out anyway.

    My own stable of cars was all down, the hot rod was in the middle of a transmission swap when I got a bit ill and was put behind for a week. When I got back around to putting the car back together, I found I didn't have the right stuff. So I called upon my dad, who let me take is bad-ASS '57 out. I'd only driven the car once before. It was a great experience. The car is a lot of fun :D

    Anyway, onto the pictures!

    Headed to Grits' to meet up and head out.
