Count me IN as the first to join you!
I try to go every year IF the weather is OK. You get to see most everyone that's trying to get into the show, not just the ones that make it. Lots of blown up stuff (which I'm familure with) and such. Great time and only on Friday due to the increased prices Sat & Sunday!
NEXT? Glenn

 You did a fine job!!! I only suggested meeting up next time, so that we're all on the same page and no ONE person has to shoulder the responsibility of trying to "set it up" (those of us wanting to meet others from the forum).
Thanks for setting this event up and allowing us to tag along!

nice-picture of McEwen's Coors-sponsored Corvette Funny Car!!!!!
After retiring that C3, had ran an identically-painted C4 into the mid/late-'80s, then had a one-off '57 Bel Air body built for his chassis, retired from 'official' NHRA Championship Racing, and started a craze of retro/nostalgia Funny Car racing:
I took this picture of McEwen's 'earlier' C3 Funny Car, wish he used to win the prestigous U.S. Nationals in 1978 over arch-rival/friend Don "the Snake" Prudhomme, while on-display at the Pontiac Excitement Nationals a few years ago.....

Thanks!
It was my first time using PhotoBucket. I would like to control the speed of the slide show, but I didn't see anywhere to do that.

I have both the McEwen "Mongoose" & Prudhomme "Snake" from Hot Wheels. They are still in the blister pack.

Great pics! I still have a bunch on my camera that I will post as soon as I can. Got a TON of stuff to catch up on after being away for a few days....
Personally I thought it was a great little day trip. Would like to take part in more of that caliber..........

It was great getting to meet you, Connie, ynkedad and all the others today.
It is nice to be able to put a face with the forum name.
More events would be GREAT!
