Re: Post 1 Pic Actually At A Car Show Event
Local fundraiser show this past weekend with the TTA. Got 3rd place in the class. Very large class, all 1980 to 1999 cars. Got beat by a Monte SS(2nd) and a Buick Lesabre(1st). lol. Never had much appreciation for the Lesabre, I guess it was a real "special" car. If that wasn't bad enough, also rained twice during the show. Car got wet-ugh!
Hey at least you placed with such stiff competition!
just kidding. congrats and I know how it feels

Took a bit to figure out how to post this old pic but here is my car with Jim Mattison from PHS at the TA nats (back in the airport days)
Does this count? After taking a few laps on the track (Year One Bristol Bash)

Re: Post 1 Pic Actually At A Car Show Event
Car shows are still about a month or so away here in Wisconsin. We just had snow last Saturday; however it was 71 degrees on Sunday so it quickly melted.
Anyway, here is a shot of my 1988 Trans Am at a car show last fall. Hope to participate in more shows this year.

Camaro Superfest, Ypsilanti, MI.
(I was in the corner. Behind me was hundreds of other Camaros.)
Also, please excuse the exhaust tips. Those will be going away this summer.

Yes 7819 Lochlin Dr, Brighton, MI 48116 10:00am - 5:00 PM
Meet you there? I understand it's worth the trip - over 200 cars.
I'll be in Tecumseh to pick up a car & Detroit for the weekend.

Our POCI Chapter (Michigan Widetrackers #16) is going to this. I had not made up my mind on it yet.

Re: Post 1 Pic Actually At A Car Show Event
I take it that it is an open house to see Lingenfelters cars, not a time to break out my car and drive down for a car show...
I might bring my son, he would like to see the Lambo's

I don't see any reason why you couldn't drive it down John. I may be there with one on my trailer depending upon how the weekend goes.

Re: Post 1 Pic Actually At A Car Show Event
Just recognized my Formula three cars down from you. We may have met last year at the show. I plan to be there again, but have no dreams of winning. There are way too many near perfect low mile cars in our class. Good luck!

You do realize it is a 5 hour trip from Chicago to Detroit... Just sayin'
Also you do realize we have beaten a new path for a topic this is way way off topic... just sayin' I'm guilty here.

Re: Post 1 Pic Actually At A Car Show Event
Sorry you won't be able to make it this year, but maybe you have sparked an idea. If I can get 10 more cars in my class to move too far away to be able to come to the show, I could win!
