    WOW. just WOW. Quite honestly this was likely one of the best Billetproof show's I've been to, and I've been to a few of them ;). The overall atmosphere and the at***ude of everyone at the show was amazing. I had more folks come up to me with a huge smile on their face and say "thanks" than ever before... all I could do was to thank them!! We had EXACTLY 500 cars in the show (I have card #501 left over in my hand) which is a little down from the peak of just over 600, but to be honest, I think the quality of cars was WAY up. The NorthWest usually has the highest quality of any of the shows and it went up even another notch this year. Trying to pick awards was a chore. The Cruise went well with the Downtown ***ociation President and the Mayor of Centraila watching the cars go by and having a ball. Here are some of the photos that I took... will have them all avail on a redesigned Billetproof website in a couple of days (will tag this thread when they are up)... Thanks to the Slo-Poks for all their hard work and everyone to showed up for taking their time and effort to make this a great show.


    Best Hot Rod winner. This was its first show and first trip longer than just around the block for tuning.

    Quite possibly one of the best looking Lark's I've ever seen. Done in Candy Red with a black top. Simple, clean, awesome.

    Best Wagon went to this VW panel. LOTS of work done on it... including hiding the LCD controller for the airbags in a vintage polariod camera that sits on the front seat.

    Chop Top: Thanks for putting out the effort to put on the show. It is always fun. If it wasn't for people like you we wouldn't have great events like Billetproof to attend.

    Thanks for putting on a great event. And for posting the photos of several cars I missed by getting there a bit late on Saturday due to my own being slow.
    I still took over 550 photos and posted 456 on my photobucket album. We had a great time, my wife found a shady spot with a nice breeze and kicked back and listened to the stage show while I took photos and got some visiting in along with buying my daughter's birthday present.
    We missed the cruise but I sure have enjoyed all the photos of cruise night.
