    Turnout was less than the first year...but I had TWICE as much fun ! Everyone i met was good people! The weather was just great - it even drizzled on the way into Giddings ! Lets do it again next year, it was a hoot! Thanks to everyone that helped out and kept a friendly smile!

    Repost from another thread since this is Alan's:
    Afterthoughts from a two year vendor.
    We were very disappointed with the turnout and really bumbed on Sunday with maybe 20 cars. We saw many Houston regulars (Bruce and Danny had a bunch of cars with them), but fewer Austin cars, and we wondered why? (El Jefe was there, though). Several vendors bailed out Saturday night.
    Was it the heat?, the economy?, other shows?, graduations? or just general lack of entrant support?

    However, Alan and the Firemen's Park crew were the best! They always wanted to help in any way and deserve our thanks. And the bands that played for an empty hall deserve a group hug!

    The best way this event can be improved is by the rodders themselves- by just showing up. And maybe by moving it into the cooler fall weather.

    I'm so bummed I had to work and had to miss this years show.Glad to see it was a success even though the turnout was less than last year.A lot of my friends made it out there and they all had a blast.Looking forward to next years show and I'll make sure to be off work.

    Thanks for the coverage. Looks like some super cars showed up. I see that the complainers are still part of the "scene".
