Don't get me wrong, it's a sensational show, and well organized, though irrespective of the history it seemed to be an odd (and small) venue for such a show. I suppose it's a victim of it's own success.

Russo, did you drive past the show at about noon? A blue V8 EK drove by, and sounded very meaty :twisted:

It's funny you say its outgrown its venue, each year they know how many entrants thay can fit but funnily enough the rodders show poor support for a show put on by their own members.... which is part of the reason why they don't move it. And Cal you are right as far as indoor shows go its a goodun! Last year there were queues out around the fountain and onto the road out front. So its a very popular show, guess it means they get it right :wink:
Speed and Style........... One day I'll get the speed bit.
