Thanks guys.

Autorama is a different kind of show. Such a wide spectrum of cars & bikes. Some really amazing customs. The quality and level of these cars is just awesome just like the GNRS but on a smaller scale.

It was so fun just hanging out and watching people check out the car and listen to the comments. One of the best was a guy who was a little liquored up who stopped by and said, "kids, this is daddy's favorite Charger in the whole show". Just gotta laugh.

On a serious note, Chris mentioned that Rick Dore (builder of The Black Pearl) came by Saturday night as he was walking the show checking out some of the cars. Chris said he complemented him on the 37 Chevy and the Edsel but was really intrigued with the Camaro. Chris spent a while discussing the mods to the car. Rick said, "95% of the people here will walk by and not even notice or realize what's been done here since it was done so well. It just looks right". How awesome of a compliment is that? Holy.... He even came back two more times with a few guys to check it out again and point things out that he and Chris talked about.

Last year it was Art Himsl complimenting the paint and body. That's what I love about shows like this where you get to have top builders who are cool enough to compliment another builder for what they have done; because Mr. Dore is right, 95% of the people likely won't realize what goes into it. Just like the average Joe who doesn't know protouring just cant appreciate what so many of these killer cars have put into them for upgrades that allow them to perform so well.

Now on to the next adventure... I think we need to head out to ThunderHill for the SCCA Spring event in May and break this baby in the right way.

Thanks... Mario, you've got nothing to rethink on that beast. With everything you are doing mine will pale in comparison.

Those wheels of yours will look awesome on Doom... But I get it, that's the problem with buying wheels before the car is done. I bought mine with polished hoops and brushed centers and now look at them, brushed hoops and black centers.

The next set will be centerlocks... Which is after the tranny upgrade and Stack Injection
