Great show, you couldn't have asked for better weather or a better bunch of cars to look at. And the mud was just right!

Congrats to Larry and the crew!!! 'Wonder if they were able to get that Mustang unstuck? Yeah..........they sent the yellow tractor over to pull me out........I only had one way I could go to get out and, unfortunately, I bogged down......deeper.........and deeper....... And then I fell back on my ultimate driving skill.........and got in up to my frame.......... Thanks to the Latimore Guy with the Yellow tractor, I am home safely.........and already washed the car down......yuck! What a memory! I threw almost as much mud as Clark! ;^) Brucie </td></tr></tbody></table>
it was the first time for me too. wife came with me. i didnt really know what to expect but id like to go again for sure. it was a good time. lot of cool cars. hopefully next year ill have the es*** hot rodded and road worthy.
Second year for me and I had an absolute blast.. Only thing was the museum shuttle bus driver scared the living piss out of me driving the bus...he even tried starting it 3 times in a row when it was already running.. Ill try to post some of my pics either tomorrow or sunday
Another first timer here, it was a great show. Met a bunch of cool people, saw a lot of great cars. I'll get some pix posted soon as well.
Great show...laid back vibe, fairly high ratio of truly nice cars... cool setting...I'll be back next year, I wish I had been more prepared for this one, but it was on again off again for me regarding cash...I won't miss it now! Thanks everyone...
Yep, and the second best show is the Jalopy Showdown Drags. Oct 4 Beaver Springs Dragway. www.jalopyshowdown.com Smokey

Big thanks to all involved on putting on this great show! big thanks also goes to the people behind the scenes- Vendors, food prep, grounds keepers, and such. Larry, if you get a chance p*** that thanks along to crew! great job! The only downer for me the was I didnt have my ride done, I was hoping to baptise the car at the Showdown ah well, 'nuther time
Hi Larry! Always a great time, good friends,great bands,knee deep mud, and all the new boots We in the So-What Crew broke in all weekend. keep doing what you are doing. Thanks!! Sumo
Yeah- I see a new item for the merch booth- Jalopy Showdown Boots! Thanks Larry & Kim. Good time as always.
Might consider Jalopy Showdown socks too. Definitely a big thanks from me for putting on this show. This and the showdown drags are my favorite events of the year.
GREAT shot of Clark and me with the camera. I've got video that I was taking from the 999 car with my camera wrapped in a baggie. Came out pretty good considering. I'll have my post up in a day or two.
As always....we (PackRats/Rochester Crew) had a blast there. Thanks again for all the work and effort you and your family/friends put into the show, we appreciate it very much. -Bigchief.
