We attended one of the legs of the tour on Monday in Champaign,Ill. Over 2000 cars in attendance with many late model Mustangs,Camaros and Challengers. Several nice street rods,street machines and classic trucks there also. It rained(sprinkled)most of the day but that didn't stop the huge participation. There were a few less vendors than years past.

I went to the first day at the gm proving grounds. A lot of cool stuff. The best part was the exit route took you through a section of all the test tracks.

I know Charley and Ken (Kwhizz) went. Tony from Planet LSX is there. I'm sure we'll be seeing pics when they get back.

I'm laying In bed in Arlington right now typing this. We picked it up in St louis and came the rest of the way. Good event, lots of cars, great weather and HORRIBLE traffic!! LOL. We are in the wagon and it is doing well other than the traffic. It creeps up there, got to 240* a couple times this week!! Prolly not too good on a 348!!

I was out there yesterday walking the parking lots. Plenty of late model stuff to look at if thats your thing. The main attraction for me was the Optima Qualifier. Great show going on over there. Finch's new Nova is Wicked!
