MIS Olmstead Kiwanis show 7-18-09
 

We went to this show yesterday. We got to do 2 1/2 laps on the MIS track. The Hemi Roadrunner kinda held things up for us, and when LadyT went from the low line to the high line, she got kinda scared. But as you can see in the pic, she got over it! About 30 on the track at a time. GREAT time yesterday!

This BEAUTIFUL Camaro. Notice the dorks standing beside the car? One of em' reached in and fiddled with a NOS energy drink can on the carb, and the can exploded IN the engine compartment! Thought there was going to be a homicide right then and there! See the drink splattered all over the inner wheelwell? It's EVERYWHERE!

And what's a car show without a jet powered truck? This is a MIG training plane engine. The truck drives normal, and he puts it in neutral and fires up the jet engine! He made a lap around the track as we were getting ready to leave:

I'll post this and more in the show section, but for now enjoy! I took 365 pic's yesterday! This is just a few. Lot's of nice 50's cars, trucks, rat rods, muscle cars, a Boss 302 Mustang, just about anything anyone could want to see......EXCEPT.....We didn't see not a 1 Willy's! That's just weird, but still a GREAT show. One of, if not THE best show I've ever been to!
