I went there today and I haven't seen so many POS cars in one place since I went to the salvage yard. I mean really, what were some of these people thinking in entering their cars. 95% of the cars were POS's And then there were the rare cars that looked like people actually took some pride in their vehicles. It was so bad that I didn't even waste memory space on my digital camera. What a joke this show was.

The rain wasn't the issue, it was all the POS cars...lol. It was hard to tell what was the parking lot and the cars in the show. If they didn't have caution tape around it you would have never thought it was a show. Hell some of the cars in the parking lot were better looking than those in the show. I wish now that I could have taken some pictures of some of the POS cars there. Just to have something to laugh at.

I heard that the organization was horrible. That's probably why you couldn't tell which cars were showing and which were just there spectating. Just glad I didn't show my POS.

Thanks It was rough out there, with the rain and all. I'm glad the rain gave us a break later on in the day though.
