    This was, by far, the best VTF yet. Killer weather, cars, people, everything. Congrats to John, Kim, Steve, Doug and the entire staff. My family had a great time. The swap meet was profitable (for me at least), I met some more HAMBers, and was able to move the Meet & Greet Breakfast from Friday to Saturday for even more excitement. (We almost had a record turnout)

    I loved watching the Dirty Drags. I know the runner-up is a HAMBer. Was the winner? Either way, congrats.

    Looking forward to the Iron Invasion and many more shows to come.

    Verno30 hit the nail on the head. Not only was the traditional Torque Fest breakfast well attended, so was the event. Friday had an incredible showing of cars. With outstanding weather, Saturday was insane. I try and take my photos early, so in many it looks a little bare in the background. However, once everyone arrives it's hard to get photos without people in the way. It was a great weekend, my Model A ran like a champ and the show was great. The Dubuque fairground was packed with traditional hot rods, customs, cycles, and vintage race cars. It was great to see so many HAMBers and friends that I have not seen since last year. I agree, best Torque Fest yet. Great job John Wells and staff!!
