I copied this from another site that John has posted on and thought some of you might like to so the latest on this show--------
Just wanted to get everyone up to speed on what has been going on with us these past few weeks.
The big news is that Dennis Gage will be supporting the Vintage Torque Fest. He feels this is a unique
event that deserves his support. We thank him for getting behind the cause. Now we need YOU!
If you don't show up - then he does not get to get any good footage for the show. And you may miss your
15 minutes of fame. So get the winter projects done a couple weeks early because April 30 will be here
really quick.
The show is officially not set to start until May 1. But there have been SO many people stating they are
coming in on Friday for the cruise and pre party.....we might as well start calling this a 2 day show.
The My Classis Car crew may wind up wanting to ride with YOU on Friday night as we cruise on over to
the Field of Dreams.......ya just never know.
All cars in the area are welcome to come out for the cruise.
Muscle cars, stockers, cruisers, and bruisers - come on over to the Speedway at 5 PM on Friday night.
After the cruise - we will meet back at the Speedway to watch the Afterdarks play for FREE at 9pm.
Then Saturday morning - the real fun begins...........
for that - see the site

The show on Saturday is a all traditional hot rod show - if you are not familiar with this - please see the site.
Thanks for everyone's support.
This show is going to be a success because of people like YOU helping out.
Los Punk Rods from Kansas City, The Cheaters from Milwaukee, and the Chrome Czars out of the Chicago area
all have helped out in so many ways that I can not begin to thank them enough.
And it should also be noted that Scary Larry from the Jalopy Showdown is to receive a big huge thank you
as well. He never got annoyed when I was pestering him with all the questions about getting the show started
way back in the summer of '09. So thanks Larry - I will see you at the Jalopy Showdown again this year!
And all you East Coast people that tell me you wish there was something cool like the Hunnert Car Pile Up
on the East Coast..........there is............

OK - last thing. Keven Carter from
www.car-n-art.com has totally helped shape this show. I have asked
him a lot of questions over the past few months and he has not been afraid to tell me what is lame and what
is cool. All you people that say - "hey cool art work for the show" I can't take ANY credit for it......
it is all Keven - he is a great guy and very professional - if you need graphic work done at a reasonable
price - contact him.
I hope to see you all on April 30 or before.....I will be at the World of Wheels in Minneapolis/St Paul,
Chicago, Omaha, Des Moines, as well as Lonestar Round Up and other local shows trying to get the word out
about Vintage Torque Fest.
