It really was a great time. I was overwhelmed with the amount of people that showed up even after the downpour and the Hail.
The chicken man will be there again, everyone was blown away with the chicken. The band was great also. The lead guy in the band is one of my body and paint guys. He is pretty much a jack of all trades. I definately want them back again. Hopefully they can fit it in the schedule. The stage was borrowed from a local club/banquet Restaurant. The owner stopped by and was blown away with the band and wants them to play at his place now.
I wish Matts car would have had the new engine in it so we could give some test rides. It really is a purpose built car , Effective , simple ...just what you need in a car to be driven.
It was really great the days before that also. We had a photographer set up in a hotel for 2 days doing a photoshoot on our Stealth Mustangs that we build. The DEMON was supposed to be done, but with a shortage of a radiator it wasnt possible. We will be in Detroit in 2 weeks with the DEMON for a specail photoshoot and will be cruising Woodward with it.
Steve from TWIST MACHINE came down and got away for a day with his wife. It was great he made the trip,many people commented on the dedicated customers we have, and suppliers.
My buddy from VA brought his 70 GTO , made a 5 hr drive just to come up and hang out. It was one of the coolest cars there next to Steves car .
You guys that left early missed out on some burnouts and a ll around good time hanging out and enjoying everyones company .
I decided to turn this event into a people choice car show also. With the lack or real Pro Touring cars in the area I knew there wouldnt be many. By opening it up it opened the door for people to know you dont have to spend big bucks with us to be one of "our customers" . We wanted everyone to know we appreciate what ever they drive and will be happy to help with anything they need.
I was so busy I didnt get any pics. If anyone that was there has any feel free to email them to me or post them up .
Special thanks to my guys in the shop for there hard work and dedication this past week to make this event go down great and set the shop up so people had a good idea of our process to a finished car .
Again thanks to everyone who came out.
I am planning 2 of these next year . One eraly summer and another a little later than this one we had.
We have some killer places around for Autocross and a great Dragstrip 30-40 away . I need to get with Bill and plan RTTH event here in Pa.
STEVE HOPE YOUR TRIP HOME WAS GOOD.
