Any one else get nervous before a big (5OO-1OOO+ vehicles) show?

l have never had my rods in a show this big.

they estimated 4OOO participants are gonna be there.:eek:

the big dollar/ over the top type vehicles are usually inside the buildings, and then there is jimmy's truck. l asked'em ''did ya look at the picture l sent?"

WELL, for better or worse, tomorrow is set up day.

either way, l plan to have blast all 4 days:D

l will take some pics and post them monday or tuesday.

Later :cool:
 
I don't worry about all that jazz. It just means that I get to see a whole lot of cars and trucks. If my car happens to be at the bottom of the heap, no biggie.
 
A lot will like it. Some won't even see it. The only trophy that would mean anything to me is peoples choice. That would mean people enjoyed looking at it.
Remember you get to go and we don't (pressure) :D

1. camera
2. batteries
3. extra batteries
4. take lotsa pix
5. take more pix :D

It doesn't matter if you have a $ 500 car or a $ 500,000.00 supercar, someone is always going to have a nicer, more expensive one than you. The main thing is, you are out there having fun and not a spectator.

Enjoy the show, and if we forgot to mention it, take lots of pictures for us. :D

You'll be fine. Hey, and while you're there, could you maybe take some pictures? Not sure if you've noticed but we like pictures on this site.
 
Are you nervous, or is your truck?:rolleyes:
so my mouth won't get dry talking,
I put out a sign listing the parts I used.
They all want to sit in it......[cl
Oh, if nobody mentioned it take a LOT of pics........:cool:

weld on........[;)
 
DONS is right. don't worry about the other cars. enjoy yourself and have a good time. you will also be surprised on how much can be learned.
 
I have had my car in a few big shows (kalamazoo) and you would be surprised at how many folks like the hard work that went into building youre own then just buying parts to bolt on.
 
You know I took my car to its first show right after I got it running. It was a new small show. Once my friend and I saw the judges ( young teen age girls) we new we wouldn't win anything. But I got alot of people looking at it and even made some new friends talking all day.
