Brent hosed off the car at a self serve carwash, and was on his way. But I would expect to have some wear and tear from an event like this. If you are in love with your car, and want it be prestine....don't try this type of event.

i do love the condition of my car but i love the experience of these events more (hot rods (driven = rock chipped) > showcars = not driven)
i'd drive to a show rather than trailer it there
thx for the advice

I may consider making the journey and enjoying watching you all terrorize the salt flats.

I am sure we will be partying it up the night before somewhere and the night after the run too.
