Okay, got everything ready...some good stuff here...where to begin...

I left last thursday, on my way to see my dad for the first time in ten years, plus to go to the fest!



Me and my dad, enjoying a couple pre-embargo cuban cigars



my private selection i brought with me



My girlfriend and my dad (a tearful moment for all..we were getting ready to leave)



First arriving at the fest..never seen so much red



Who invited these guys??



More red..



Damien's car....wow...just..wow



His engine...even more WOW!



Corvette engine...love the custom chevy-porsche logo



Geoff...my second love



Saw this on the way to the hotel...not quite so hidden, is it?

Some great ariel shots by my girlfriend





Getting ready for the drive



My new desktop...great pic again shot by my wonderful woman



This is after Dan, Cuz, me, the gold n/a in front of me, and geoff all hit gravel at 100+mph....scary, but fun!



While we were waiting for the rest of the group to catch up, we decided to take a pic...



If you didn't notice, me, geoff, and andrew were making faces at the camera on dan's car...my g/f didn't notice this as she was taking the pic, but if you zoom in, you may get an eyeful



Jacking up the rental as travis was trying to take a nap...he wasn't too happy



Sadly enough, this was my brainchild...I do apologize if I caused any harm in suggesting this...but we decided to jack up the gator and put it on jackstands...needed more than two though...



Got many more pics, but these were the best. Now, to find a place to upload these two vids i got of dyno power!!!

Wow, some great looking cars. I missed the post somewhere, why is Scott getting Rock points? Michelle, the car looks great, glad to see my parts found a good home! Mike, that in the rain shot on page 14 is stunning, only would've been better had you caught a stab of lightning in the background (and no, photoshopping it in will not do it for me, I'm all for doing things in post, but i'd prefer to have them perfect in person).

Mike,
Scott had a run in with the ditch during the cruise. Look at xsboost's photos, you can see the damage under the passenger door.

Scott was chasing after me, I guess trying to catch up, spun it and went *** end into a ditch. Destroyed the rocker. Luckily it didn't get into the fender or the quarter, but it is gonna need some cuttign and welding...
