Oh sweet! Looks like a lot of major cities have them. Dallas obviously has a lot more nice cars than Houston.

My boss also said that the Houston show will be shut down soon. He said it was a 40-car show at one time where nice and rare cars like Duesenbergs and the like showed up and now there are 'young punks and ricers (read Acura drivers w:pw ) showing up and peeling out'

the "punk"s at this show were the Corvette and truck owners. I only saw a few rice cars.

I said it while at the show, and I'll say it again, I don't like corvette's and I hate corvette owners


looking at past footage on youtube, it looks like the same white corvette owner that got out of control saterday, got a ticket fishtailing doing a burnout at the august get together. Controll your car man!

LOL

so once I went to this all makes show in Downtown (old town) Auburn CA. My buddy and I both had sunroof notchbacks, mine a 64, his a 67. It's in a business area, mosly antique shops, and things like that, with angled parking. The show is supposed to start at 5, but all these old retirees have nothing better to do then to go early and get a spot in the shade. I don't blame 'em. Anyways, at about 5:15, they always re-park everybody from angled to straight, to fit all the cars. Knowing this, I found a small spot inbetween a 64 corvette, and a tree. very small, but it's about 5 minutes until they will re-park everybody. I get out, and this hill billy backwoods jackass starts running from down the street, "Hell no you aint parkin that shit next to my carvett"

My buddy Eric Deen aka yustrn, is calm at first, says they are about to re-park, etc. the guy just looses it. doesn't want some hitler car next to his precious 64 carvette. the Lion's club, who puts on the show, comes over, trys to calm the guy down. he just wont have it. they ask me to move down the street, that this guy would actually move his two cars for us to fit in, just to keep the peace. my notch won't start (my hidden kill switch), the corvette owner yells out "I'll push it", yustrn tells him "I'll push you" lol. Jokes insued, something about the guy maxing out his credit card on the corvette, and couldnt afford clothes (It was a very nice corvette, but he was in beat up flipflops, short dirty cut-offs, dirty shirt) that he bought all his stuff from the place that sells volkswagen parts (rocky mountain moterworks does corvettes and vw's) that he was going to sick the Klan on us (some lion's members are reportedly Klan members lol) It ended up that he moved.

This all caused quite a crowd, and pissed a lot of folks off. The corvette guy just stared at us all day. So imagine how good it felt when I won best europeon car (lions member judged), and peoples choice lol. Meanwhile, the corvette guy had birds shit on his car, didn't win a trophy, got pissed off and burned out leaving, and was cited by the CHP. Then, on the way home about 45 minutes larter, we see him on the side of the freeway, big huge puddle of green and black under the car, as we honk and wave out of our sunroofs LOL. Ahhhh, I had forgotton that story, one of my favorites. I learned not to give a shit about corvette people that day :)
