  12. I did't pay a lot of attention to the crowds. But it didn't seem all that crowed. I do know There were lots of cool Rods and kustoms. And it's always fun to drive the track, and hang out with some very NUTTY friends.

    All the seats are painted different colors,As many times as I have been to Charlotte I never paid any attention to them but your right,it does make them look full!

    It was the idea of the France family to make it appear the seats were full and at the same time they have removed a lot of seating because of the decline of fans. HRP

    Great Pics ! Thanks !
     
  21. I was trying to sell my Falcon-from a seller’s point of view the crowds were light, Especially in the nether regions on the far side of the swap meet. I befriended my neighbor and we moved our cars closer to the show side Sunday. A little more activity But Sunday in general was a disappointment
