Aug 14th Rookies 3rd Annual Car show

[Scarbs]

Well after the great Midwest meet the St Louis boy put on and the great dinner with Aggost the weekend wasn't over. The Next Morning Damon and Kevin meet Amy and I at our Hotel and the 4 of us headed east from Galesburg to St. Charles IL. There was 3hrs of road to hit before the end of registration for the show. We rolled in just before 11 Luckily there was a car wash right next to the place. The show was small about 25 cars. The looming weather and the all Pontiac show down the road played a factor I’m sure. After the wash I back in next to Damon and we both started cleaning and setting up our stuff. His Engine shroud was a huge hit he said he didn’t think he beat me both me and Amy said other wise. The first person to say something was the show manager. Damon had just set it up and he came over and commented on how cool it was and very unique. I keep telling him he was winning he wasn’t convinced even after the Cheerleaders for the Kane County eagles Football team said how cool it was he wasn’t convinced. We all know how cheerleaders have such great car knowledge. After we set up and cleaned the cars we heading in to have a bite. The place was pretty dead inside too, the best thing on the T.V was a spelling bee on ESPN2. After the long wait for the food in an empty place (go figure right) we headed out side for the participant judging we had to do. There was a pair of Classic Mopar we drooled over for a while love the Mopars. A Masarati, Jaguar T-bucket, Caddy most of the cars were classics just me and Damon and 2 Tuner cars. There were maybe 8 cars past the year 95. After the Judging came the Awards. It was Damon and I in 1st and 2nd place in your class. Yep he won 1st. This was his first show and it’s a first place wins. I was so glad he won makes all his hard work worth it. He was very surprised he doesn’t listen well, we all told him he was winning. So that was a great capper to a great weekend in my book. Hope we can do this again soon.

Well this is getting long so bye for now.

Sorry Eric I did not come across this post till today. What the hell I must have been at the back of my car when the Cheerleaders came over and said that. You know if i heard them say what they said maybe I would of thought I was going to win. You know how smart those Cheerleaders were. Oh and the show manager came over. I guess I was not there that time also. I am glad you where there help the Cheeerleaders make up their minds. the other thing watch a spelling bee with no sound. what a sports bar. I had a great time up there just hope we can get more people tocome to the next ones. 1000 miles later through all the country roads many bugs out there. Oh and Eric loves corn dont you Eric.

Let’s rephrase that Damon. Corn Fields. Hell we saw so many cornfields that weekend I thought I was a Fu kin Alien looking for a field to circle.

Yea you missed the Promoter, you had just set up the engine shroud when he came by. And you seemed to miss the cheerleader every time they cam over. I think one even was talking about bore and stroke or something like they were dam smart girls.
