Yes, 90% of the time is awesome!

Favorites? Wow, this year, that is a hard question to answer, as there were tons of nice, GOOD cars there! In no particular order.....

2005 Porsche Carerra GT - the one to lust over
1955 Nomad - just a nice cruiser
2 different 1966 Impala SS hardtops - I just like these 1966 full size Chevys
1968 GTO - done very well
1947 Plymouth ragtop - a real sweatheart!

Some of these I drove, some i didn't. But if I had the $$$, I would have bought these.

I am fond of 66 Full size Chevys ! My lowly high school Biscayne.

Trick ----- 137 mph --- was that at the end of a 1/2 mile ???? Seems like mine gets to 140 faster than a half a mile. I guess it is hard to tell when you start covering ground at that rate of speed.

John - Asphalt runway hardly any traction at the start. Believe me I was disappointed! I'll be on racing slicks next time.

I Tree'd the heck out of both Corvette's and lead at halfway but they drove around me on the top end. I Tree'd the Viper and saw him in my rearview mirror at one point. He had to use all 10 Cylinders to beat me - LOL!!!

I'll post more pics later.

That sounds like so much fun I was looking at those events & wishing I could go to one. Glad you got to go & have fun.


Rick, great pics. I got to watch quite a bit this year & saw you a few times. Such a fun gig!

Yup.

I don't have a tach in the car yet, but it is revving somewhere around 4K at 65 MPH.

And yet again we were halfway down the section. Must be busy times for Old farts. I am home today with back pain. Had to do some work on computer but now ready to go back to bed & rest some. I guess if this keeps up a chiropractor is next. I have tried everything else.
