    Hahahahahahaha!
     
  3. I was at the last 2 in Morris (#7 & 8). I thought it was the perfect setting for the show, especially having cars sitting among the trees. A very cool vibe, at least for me.
    I'm glad to happen to have the experience and have no regrets. Thanx Chrome Czars.

    Since it's the last one, I'll have to make it down. It'll be a loooong drive with 4:56 rear end gears though. :D:D:D

    3 WEEK WARNING!!

    Ten years, wow. Here are the logos (ignore the "photos"... I borrowed the images from our site). Former Czar Brian Marra did the first logo, and Chad "Django" Hill did the rest.

    All the logos with cars included cars that attended (or were set to attend) the Pileup, except one which was never finished.

    If you pop over to the Czar message board, you will find that some people are organizing a nice leisurely cruise to Decatur on Friday, but I think they're leaving in the morning

    Yes I saw that. That cruise down 66 would be so rad! However I don't think I'll be able to get the day off to leave that early.
    I actually joined the Czar board a while back, but I waited too long to do an intro so my account got deleted:(

    Just found out this is going to be the last one :( Well, it was a great time while it lasted. This year will be my sixth straight Pileup, just bummed I won't get a chance for number seven. Thank you Czars and everyone else, sure will miss this show. Here's my sedan and me in 2008 and 2009.

    Just a reminder that we are hosting parties on FRIDAY AND SATURDAY nights at Snappers in Clinton (15 minutes north). They will have a fried chicken buffet on Friday night and a roast pork buffet on Saturday before the bands start. $8! and the food is REALLY good!

    Killer bands, and we will be showing trailers from hot rod, juvenile delinquent, biker, horror and sci fi movies all night, both nights!

    Friday night: 3 Bad Jacks, Hot Rod Hucksters, and th'Empires
    Saturday night: The Gravetones, and MG & the Gas City 3

    So don't go home right after the show or retire to your hotel, Nancy. You only live once, and this is the last Pileup!!

    i guess i scratch it off my list of shows i would like to get to. Sounds like it was a hard decision to reach but i really respect the way you went out on top. there is a season for everything and it looks like this one is coming to its end. Hope to see a lot of pictures for one more virtual visit.
    thanks to all of the people who gave of themselves to pull it off

    Nic, sorry I missed last year and seeing you and all my freinds. Life got in the way and hope it doesnt this year. We all have our bucket list and my wife bucket list is the Chicago Marathon and has been training to do it under 4 hours. I have to support her bucket list so my visit will be short but I will be there. I will be driving down on friday by myself in a roadster. Thanks JohnB]
