This is a monster Car Show! What I like is it's indoors. If you've never seen it, you're in for a treat.

Here's the link to it: http://www.rodshows.com/gnrs/index.html

Last year's winner.

You wanna do four? My friend Steve Stavely wants us to come down and do parade laps like last year at Cal Speedway in Ontario. This would be on the 23rd. I can make it happen easily!

Anybody up for this?

I'd be up for this. Of course it looks like a rainout, but if something is in the works, please post info.

That sounds like fun. Friday is supposed to be the last day for rain.

E-mailed me about getting the Vettes together and having some controlled parade laps at Cal Speedway on June 13th. We did this two years ago and it was a huge success. I've talked to Sparky and we are going to do it with his monthly GTG in June.

I think the T1 Vettes are racing that day. Here are some pix's from 2008.









Steve was kind enough to buy ribbon trophies for us and we had a impromptu car show judged by the T1 drivers.

My son and I were the first to drive to the staging area, which, in our minds meant...THE FIRST ON THE TRACK!!!

But, it didn't work out that way...we were the first car in the last line to get on the track. Oh, well, still had a super duper great time.

Thanks again Mike for putting that on and for the one coming up in June, which The Block is going to!!!
