You did a great job Saturday. I really enjoyed listening to you and the music selection was fabulous. I really appreciate you drawing everybody's attention to my crazy husband trying to drown his self in a washtub "bobbing" for crawfish, lol. But really, you were entertaining and it really added to the show.

what a great weekend......those boys really do know how to put on a run. Leon, Robert, was good to finally meet y'all. Looking forward to Calcasieu in Feb.Might be a bit cooler : )

Folks, If you live within 5-600 miles of this , it is well worth attending. It is about the cars, & having a good time. Have met some really nice folks at this show, had a LOT of fun.

By the way, if a nice man named Fuzzy offers you some cherries & tells you it is a traditional New Orleans desert, by all means have some.....

Sweet Azalea and Seafoam Green or in plainer terms green and purple. You won't be able to miss it. It's pro street with a big hood scoop and really fat tires. We also have a trailer the same color we pull behind it. OK, who is shine?

Angie

HEY ANGIE WE WILL BE THERE AND IT SURE WILL BE NICE TO SEE YOU 2

(ROBERT & SANDY FROM CALCASIEAU)

Fitz,

Amen to the cherries and the being cooler!!! I think Randy moving their show to April can only make it bigger. It was definitely hot this time.

Brent.....I totally understand about the power parking stuff. I have only been involved in street rodding about 3 years, but my husband has been in it a lot longer (on and off), This year was the first time I have ever been to Louisville. I know that there are bad apples in every barrell, but I think somebody loaded them up and dropped them off in Louisville. I am used to the smaller runs where people are polite and even friendly to each other. Even at the two "mini-nats" (Springfield and Knoxville) I have been to I didn't see the sheer number of unfriendly and even rude people that I saw in Louisville. Throw that in with the .30 gas increase in less than 24 hours and it is a bad situation. But I didn't let it ruin my fun, lol. I guess it was just a good thing that it wasn't me that those people tried to "run off". I might have still been sitting there today out of sheer spite, lol.

If you want to see the other side of the spectrum. go to The Coonass Redneck Nationals in April. Make your reservations early, get in the host hotel, go on Thursday to get you a good parking spot, and park there. If you have to leave, just stick you a chair out there and your place will be there when you get back. This is just a good time with a bunch of good car people.

We will be there Friday. My hubby, son and friends are working furiously on a project for my son to take. We will be in the 37 Chevy Truck. I think Loup's Enterprises makes the event shirts. E-mail me off the board and we'll see about getting you one.

Angie

Robert, I look forward to seeing you there!!

(this info is off the flyer)

We have been to this show twice and the Saturday night "entertainment" is worth the price of the whole trip. Even aside from that, this is one of our favorite shows.

Angie

Hey orphans

Yep that's us, we went on Thursday last year but won't be there until Friday this year. Lookiing forward to seeing everyone and having a Great time!!!

Den...no worries..let me know what size ya need.

Angie...what color truck? I'll be in a 46 ford pickup....ask Shine what color : )

Ok, so we had a great time!! Got to meet Fitzwell and did remember him from last year. Got to see Robert Aguillard from Calcasieu and Boy does he look great!! I saw Leon walking around with Fitzwell and saw him give out the trophy this morning but didn't realize who he was, Sorry Leon!! Any way, Other than being hot and a little shower on Friday, I believe a great time was had by all. This show is moving to April next year and it won't be so hot, so if you have a chance to go, take it!! I promise you won't regret it.

P.S. My son won the Moe Mileage award....for driving his 2 ton truck that gets about 8 ,iles to the gallon and was put together in 2 weeks to go to the show.

If I can just add my two cents worth.......At many shows I go to (the Coon-Ass Redneck Nationals included) there is much mingling, lol. The show is at one hotel with the overflow going to the hotel next door owned by the same people. You can walk around and look at the cars and especially when it's hot there are lots of people under tents. At one point, I was just walking around looking at cars and carrying my chair, because I wasn't sure who I would be "visiting" next. By far this is the most laid back show we go to. As far as planning a show, when you have car people and you have cars, it's kinda hard to get them all in one spot away from the cars (for example, at dinner) I have learned more about people and cars by just going up and asking questions. And believe me, if you start asking questions about the car, especially if they are complimentary ones, you can make a friend for life. This is also a better way for me to get to know people because I am terrible with names, and it makes it easier for me to identify people by associating their car with them.

N2tires, what kind of crap are you avoiding?? Just wanted to know.

Angie

Hey to all. This is Tank (the mc all day sat) was great to see everyone especially Leon and his wife! Had a great time with all. Hope to see all in April. Leon I will be busting out the new and improved 46 sedan at the show then. Until later...keep kroozin'.
