I hope to grab some nice pictures of everybody's car that's there! I can't promise very artistic shots or photoshoots of anybody's car because that's not what I'm hired to do for tomorrow. I hope I can do a little better than the previous photographer :thumb:
Gimmie a holler if any of you guys spot me and I'll try to grab a few extra shots of your cars when you're running

Sweet! I saw it sitting in front of the shop the other day so I figured it might be ready.
Bo, look for Sharrie and I. As of right now we're planning on being there. Maybe not right at the begining but we should be there at some point.

You are probably the only one (of the big dogs) who actually does drive yours there.
Did you miss my? :rolleyes: I was being sarcastic. Everyone saw the Olds being unloaded off of a trailer right behind the pit area. That car is $$$$ fast but even though it's supposedly street legal, I don't consider it a street car. I love your car and would like to build something similar some day. A 385 series stroker motor with some Kasse heads in a 'lil fox would sure make for some quick timeslips!! :smile:
