| I have a pic from a few years ago of a dude that looked like a shirtless Doc from Back to the Future.
Always interesting people at the show. |

| Thanks. I don't think they had any plans to split the current gen Challengers up into modified and stock. We ended up with like 16-18 Challengers in our section at one point, a hurst edition one, a number of other nicely moded ones. From what I saw they also lumped all of the current gen chargers, 300s, magnums, etc into a different single class. They had a big PT Cruiser club there as well with about 16-18 cars in it and they were in their own class.
Its interesting when you see that, and then walk around while voting and see a bunch of classes with 2-3 cars total in them. |

| I usually attend this show every year but I think this will be my last one.The show seems to get a little smaller and less organized each year.It was hard to even find something to eat this year.Just seems like the end of the day drags on forever now |

I knew were the food vendors were, but only because I stumbled on them while wandering around trying to figure out where registration was.
They actually had a map of everything in the goodie bags they were handing out after registering. Of course like always I just throw mine into the trunk and don't look at it till I get home. I wish I had taken note of it earlier because I would have spent a lot less time wandering around looking for stuff. The show itself was pretty good once everyone trickled in over the first five hours of it.
That would be my suggestion to them though for future events. Don't just throw the maps and welcome sheets into the goodie bags, hand them to show participants as they drive in so they know they exist. If they can take our money as we're driving in, they can hand out those maps and important show info as well. |

- This year we had more cars attend then in the past. It was great weather and a great turnout. I don't know what you mean by dis-organized? Things went really smooth this year.
Pictures from the weekend with some other stuff thrown in.

I think hawks may have meant confusing/disorienting due its size, as opposed to dis-organized. It was a big show with lots of great cars! AND as an added bonus, the awards program didn't sound like a bingo game being called, you knew who was winning what for what. |
