Well, I am done. Just got back, having all the fun I care to have.

There was considerable confusion this morning. I tried to get my car parked in the Homebuilt Heaven area but was directed to turn out of that area into another lot. When I went to find an official to help me I got a bunch of blank stares and "Uh.... I don't knows" from the guys. I finally found one guy to direct me to a tent that told me they were all mixed up and had cars in the wrong areas and to do the best I could.

Anyway, it was really mass confusion, so I just decided to hang out. Lots of beautiful cars and some really nice folks from around the country.

I saw Chip Foose. I saw a bunch of cars from magazine articles, and a few that will be there soon.

Took lots of pics but will have to wait until I can get back to Florida and get my computer online again before I upload.

I never did see your car, :( . I was in the Homebuilt heaven area with my Nova.

When I drove in on Saturday they split me to the left as I went through the main gate. They did not have the parking lots labled on the EXIT road. I drove around for a few, then parked in what I thought was Homebuilt. I went on foot looking. There was massive confusion on the part of the staff. I finally found the tent in the homebuilt area, got my t-shirt and widow paper. Went looking for a parking spot but it was full. I decided to leave my car where it was and just walk around.

I was parked in the back of the Fun Run area next to the Exit road with the car facing the main drag.

To be honest, I was not impressed at all by the organization and communication efforts by the staff present on the ground. Very frustrating on my end. Sorry I didn't see you there. I did walk the homebuilt area. I remember a super cool pro-street style silver Nova facing the main entrance road. That car was pretty slick.

I never did figure out what all those other parking designations were behind the homebuilt heaven line. There was the duece line, Drive your 55, and one other one with a mix match of stuff parked here and there.

Yeah, it did seem a little disorganized this year. It think there to the point were there are just to many cars.

Here are some super hot camaros from the show

I agree on the first two (we are gonna shoot the second one).. but the third one I find awful.. too gaudy.. maybe with some different wheels and steering wheel, I just don't dig the flame shaped billet stuff. It is like 1980 all over again..

Jody and I checked out the 2nd one on the Power Tour. Frieburger and Kinaan stopped by to check it out, too, but David wasn't overly excited about it because it had sticker tires on it the whole week.

It had a nice color combination.

He didn't like it cause it had "sticker" tires??? you lost me there :willy:

That car was beautiful and looked like it would handle well to boot.. I think it has a full chassis..

It was trailered from event to event, had zero miles on it, and he was apprehensive about that. I read some of the threads on the HotRod.com Forums about people trailering cars on the Tour, so I know why they were discussing that - some of those people went ballistic about it! lol

Tom (RadRambler), Chris (69MyWay), Jody and I looked the car over at the Tallahassee stop when they were looking at it. It was a cool color, the fit and finish was fantastic, and the thing was seriously in the weeds. :thumbsup:

The tires still had the stickers on them at G-G this last weekend. Looked like zero miles still.

These other two camaros were pretty hot. The black/orange color combo was VERY strong on the one car. You had to either hate it or love it, there is no middle ground. He also used the Australian style engine cover from the Holden.
