Thanks Everyone
edit: don't konw where this post went, here it is again.
This will be quick, don't have much time right now.
I wanted to say thank you to everyone for coming, it wouldn't have been the way it was without each one of you there.
I'd like to thank those that helped me out, with the cooking, raffle tickets, setting up tents, hauling some stuff from the fairgrounds.
I had an awesome time. I got to meet everyone I think, but sorry I didn't have time to get to know a lot of you. I had more things to do than I thought. I didn't even get a chance to check out more than like 2 cars.
Thanks to Ed as he made the t shirts possible. He'll be selling some extra ones on here. And Ed, if you have enough, I'll probably buy like 3-5 more.
Sorry for the track conditions today as they sucked. I think the caravan to the track turned out well. I'll watch that soon , and get it on the boards soon as I can.
I had some car trouble, but I'd like to thank Kat and PK (I think that's your scn name) for tuning my carb, seems like I still have some idle bugs with it, but with the vacuum leak I guessthat's expected. Now just got to find time to fix my breaks.
Thanks to all the vendors that showed up, I appreciate it.
I'll be sending out an email hopefully later tonite, maybe a little more detailed but we'll see.
Again THANKS to everyone. And I hope to see you next year

Anyone remember who took trophies for best firebird and best of show. I would like to see their cars. Some how I feel like gore and the florida scandal. I demand a recount.
Just a thought.

I got home this afternoon. I had a great time. My thanks go out to Mark for initiating the event and all the hard work that he an his team put into making the first annual event so succesfull. Thanks to Ed and his wife for getting the t-shirts done. This was my first show as a vendor. I learned a lot that will make the next time better. Thanks to all that took the time to drop by my booth to say hello. Special thanks to those that lightened my load for the return trip. I was only 2 lbs overweight on my bag containing product vs. 25 lbs before!
I spent Monday as a tourist enjoying the nice sunny weather while exploring several local Civil War battlefields and Museums ending in Sharpsburg and the Antietam battle site.

I know who took first. I guess the glitz and glitter kinda dazes the shallow minded people. If you won second or third place please let me know who you are and what your car looks like. I just gotta know.
See ya in the rearview (####] [####)
