I will be there, and I urge everyone to come! End of a lot of history there, 100 years of manufacturing basically. A lot of the plant guys, retirees, Kenosha area guys have some cool Mopars and AMCs, and its open to all so there should be a pretty good turnout!

Hey Jim, saw your car. Stopped by twice but you weren't there. I hope you took some pictures, my camera decided that being dropped 2 times was code for delete every picture that was on there.

It was a great turn out, tons of AMCs and others. Some D Bag in a Hornet decided to be a homo and do burnouts and brakestands down aisles full of cars and people. Other than that, it was great!! I even won 2nd place for 1980 and newer.

Great show! The guy with the hornet was kind of a douche. There was a large open spot in the parking lot for doing burnouts, why do it where you could hurt someone or their car? Did anyone get video of me doing burnouts in my red 68 chevelle?

[stealthy1ss]

I saw your Chevelle doing a good burnout and Jim did one hell of a powerslide in the Viper! The dude in the Hornet also wanted to do side by side burnouts. He almost ran into somebody when trying to do a side by side burnout. On my way home I saw him pull out of the Golden Corral on HWY 50 and made sure to let him know that he was number 1. lol :flipoff2:

[Plum Crazy]

There was a guy filming the Burnouts, hopefully it will be on YOUTUBE!

[Plum Crazy]

Jim, your car made the paper! Picture #3

I like how "The Greg"s dad is in the picture on page 9. It's his house that holds the yearly SRT meet.

I'm not sure if this is going to work or not, but I am going to try to post the video of the burnout I did in my 68 chevelle.

I had a great time! Sorry I missed people, I was walking around or hanging out in the shade most of the day.

My first one was better. Second time I was sliding all over :thumbsup

[stealthy1ss]

The first one was the one I was referring to. You had a good angle and tons of smoke! :thumbsup

[Moparjim]

If anyone got video or pictures of it let me know I'd love to have it!
