Hey Bart thanks for having us we had a blast. Great show with a nice variety of cars!

 

I think your sedan won an award, but you had already left, contact Bart.

 

I hope folks around the world enjoy these pix of the great midget racers from the show yesterday. Maybe these guys get together other places but I don't see them around too often. LUV it!!

 

I had posted a link to my photos on another thread but will put it here as well. Had a great time looking forward to next year.

Thanks guys. It was lot of hard work but this year I had a bunch of helpers. I need to point the compliments to them. I had my hands full taking car of the Miller. I had to pick it up and drop it off.

I got to roam around a bit, see some cars and talk with some people.

I have to ask what were your thoughts on the trading cards and the kids coloring book?

Thanks again for supporting the show.

Bart

 

Coloring books are going to make killer 'stocking stuffers', those were cool.
Trading cards were cool as heck, just needed more of 'em.

 

Trading cards are really cool & the coloring book is awesome!
My nephews loved the coloring contest and snagged my trading cards . I will add a pic or two

 

It was a great show and all the bands were great too. Had a really good time roaming around.

hah, yea now i remember.

Bart,
I messed around and hit send on that pm before I was really through...I meant to tell you those cards were one of the coolest things I have ever seen---and I go to car shows all over the country--especially in that part of it you will be in next week! I know that took tremendous effort on someones part and I want to congratulate them/you for it. I would even be willing to donate cash towards that next year if it helps your budget.
And the books? I told Jill a dozen times we needed to borrow someones kids to snag one! Luckily some kid accidentally dropped a few colored pages in the backseat of the Nova so that is a cool little momento!
Fantastic ideas, both of them!
Eddy and Jill

 

Thanks, those are ideas I came up with because I go to shows which ask a premium to enter your car and you leave with a sticker and maybe a dash plaque. Yawn!

I wanted something unique and something I could build on.

The coloring book was to inspire the next generation, plain and simple. Thanks to all the HAMB artists who contributed to the coloring book. And to Mike Shoaf (Slide) for all his work on both projects.
