I was not too impressed with the show either. Did you notice the rooms were really dark? I liked the location in the Minneapolis Convention center better. There were a couple cars I really admired, many that I didn't give a second look.
I was amazed at the number of people there - it was wall to wall people.
My kids liked getting a picture with 'Mater. Their dad liked the Car Craft girls. The mini-donuts were good....
Our SCCA booth had 2 cars. An ITS-Class BMW M3 and a Track Day Factory 5Cobra (600 HP worth). The Cobra won Best Kit car and Best Hand Built Racecar. The M3 got second place Production Based Race car.
Other odd things - I saw a guy walking around in shorts on Saturday. I think the high temp Saturday was something like -5F. The line to get the Pro-Wrestler's autograph must have been 90 minutes long.
