Great Labor Day Cruise

I tore up the autocross again this year with the 55 and we hosted the car games,Slow Drags, Joust and Find your Rearend. It was fun and the car count was up, first time in several years the cruise lane was about an hour long during the day. They were even kind enough last night to let us park the cars in the buildings to avoid the weather, they were concerned it might have hailed on us. Just got rained on but it was nice to know they had our cars in mind. Made for some great shots too.

We'll be back for #30 and have the games again. Next year I'll have to stop by, although I drove past you guys a ton in the evenings in either the 55 or the 56 pontiac wagon. Probably waved at you a bunch...jello shots made me do it!

 

Rudy , I made a few laps by your camp , and either I did'nt see any one or the whole gang was chow'n down and I did'nt want to interupt . In any event . it was a good time and as always , your truck is one of my favorites . Maybe next year .

 

I went Sunday as a spectator. No one wanted or could go with me, so went by myself (LOSER!). It was pretty light on Sunday, so I'm glad to hear Saturday was packed. I'm hoping to camp next year!!! Like I said before, I rather see moving cars rather than cars just sitting.

 

Rudy...stopped by a couple of times to say hi...but just missed you. You sure have a bitchen truck! See ya down the road somewhere!

 

They start taking reservations in Feb I believe. Their website is occa-inc.com

I've been camping there since about 88 and love it.

 

Thanks gal6xie5. We've camped before, but the youngster's travel softball happens have gotten in the way. The last time we camped was 2007. Things have changed since then!!

 

Here's some pictures I took Saturday.

Thanks for posting your pictures from the show. I especially liked the two '59 Bonneville customs!

 

I have been going for a lot of years. Alway's have a good time. Striper and his club the California Roadsters, let me park with them. A great bunch of people, and good food too. This is a must go to run. Cool pic. of Pauls '33 Willys. This is one show I will keep going to, I hope for many more years. By the way Ramrod2624, that is a beautiful truck!

Great show, Great cars, and I meet plenty of great people! A little light on Sunday in my opinion, but overall another great weekend was had by all!
