What show's did you get to this year?

I asked this same question last year after the Pileup kind of wraps up the season. So what did everyone get out and see, and what was your favorite?

LuckysGal and I saw in order:

1. Detroit Autorama
2. Shifters Viva Las Vegas
3. Billetproof Detroit
4. Hot Rod Reunion Columbus
5. Hunnert Car Pileup

Again, I'm going to say the pileup was my favorite. But Billetproof was the debut of my non running heap so it was a close second. I think we're really going to try and hit Hot Rod Cinematic and the HAMB drags next year. I really want to go to Speedweek but I'm not going to Bonneville until my roadster is up and running. So whatcha see?

Id have to say the HAMB Drags was my favorite this year.

It would be really hard to pick a favorite, they were all a blast. but being the first time at the Pile-Up and getting my Roadster back out on the road would put it near the top. Gary

Had an absolutely superb year this year.

Good Guys - Indy
Road Rocket Rumble - Indy
Hot Rod Cinematic - OH
Good Guys - OH
HAMB Drags - MO
Ducktail Run - Indy
Newport Hill Climb - Indy
Hunnert Car Pileup - IL

There were a handful of small local gatherings that we lots of fun as well, but those were the big ones.

I do have to say that for us in the midwest starting the hot rod season out with Beatersville, ending with the Hunnert Car and a Road Rocket show in the middle just can't get much better. If I could do those three shows every year for years to come, you could color me one happy guy.
