  1. They let the cars out in groups with a pace truck in front and behind. The speed varied but was generally in the 55 to 65 range. If you stayed high and dropped back you could punch it to catch up and go a little faster.:D

    :D I can't "Thank you!" enough for sharing your shots of the weekend. Your pictures will take me back to the moment, all winter? Next time you need to go for a ride with me. Don't tell anyone how much fun the autocross is, cause then everyone will want to try it...:rolleyes:

    It is going to be amazing!
     
  15. Great photos as usual, Kirk! You do a helluva job with a camera.

    It sure was a good show for the first time in the Chicagoland market,. I was impressed and heard many, many postive comments all around. I personally can't wait for next year.

    Although I manned the "Chicago Brushmasters Charity Art Auction" booth in garage #3 virtually all day on Saturday, what little I did see was pretty damn nice. I'll tell ya, I will never miss another HAMB "Meet 'n Greet" ever again! :( It was great to see the HAMB represented so well and HAMB kind of rides having a place at this event.

    Congratualtions Kirk and the GoodGuys organization.....

    Peter,
    Great comment and glad you had a great time...as I certainly did! This will become an awesome event for many years to come and let's make sure that ALL HAMBERS feel the love and join us next year. We had our OWN area in Suede & Chrome and I know Kirk will make sure that we condition this tradition!!!! There is room for all of us, so let's take advantage of the opportunity!!!!
