Default My first car show

Was in my first car show today. It was a Corvette and GM show put on by Street Dreams Corvette Club. I didn't get a trophy or anything (didn't expect to) but I did win a gift certificate, had a good time, saw a bunch of cool cars and met some cool people.

I did learn a few things about being in a car show, most important of which was don't park next to GB_Vette. His C5 is an attention ***** but did win a trophy. Way to go Gary.

Here's a few pics:

Me next to Gary.







9 second 57 pickup, very cool.

It was cool meeting you.
