Default a few pictures from a few car show

The first set was from a car show which is called midnight mass. Its more of your non-typical car show.





















The next set were in Virginia City. Its the kick off for Hot August Nites:

































The final ones are corvettes found in the parking lots. The casinos allow special parking for incoming corvettes. I did not know they would do this so maybe next year I will take my corvette. I do not care the way the exhaust dumps out on any of these corvettes. Just my opinion. I did not say anything about it.

Mid Night Mass is in Woodland CA. It starts at 12:00 and goes until 10 PM but people tend to leave around 12 AM. It was really hot until the sun goes down then the delta breeze comes in. It has about 400 cars and about 10K people every year.

Virginia City is in Nevada.

Yeah thats why I was showing the license plate. Did you notice the bed rack? It was old bed springs. Plus the king bee foto ray is cool!

Must be some local fad with those corvette exhausts. Looks odd.
I enjoyed the pics very much. Thank you.

yeah, 75 miles with the brake lights on the entire time not sure if that's a bug or not... I fixed that problem. I really did not care since my lights are not that bright nor did I do much stops in front of people.
