I think everyone had a GREAT time........ I'd like to thank all of the people who make it happen. It takes a lot of work to make this show the success that it is. It is one of my favorite shows.
Big thanks to everyone who voted for my car...It was quite an honor to place in the top 5 of the modified class.

Weather could not be better. Got to say Hi! to a lot of friendly faces. Couldn't stay to the end since my 4 yr. old got cranky early. Hope someone posts all the winners.
It was a great show and had a great time.

I had a great time too.
Hey Winston, are you missing a chair?
BTW, We may have the hard luck story for the way home from the show. Some idiot ILL driver hit the Stinger on the way home. Not a lot of damage and no one hurt.

Argggg! Why do I keep doing that! That is the third chair I leave behind at a show this year. I can't believe I did that. It is not the $15, it is the stupidity that gets me. Oh well, it is a very comfrable chair, I am sure you can use it.
Sorry to hear about the stinger. Hope it gets back to its awesome looks.
Wish I could have made it, but my new engine install is still not complete. We are taking our time to make sure it looks as professional as we can make it. I want it to pay off by taken time to get it done and not rush it.

Looks like a great turnout!

Had a great time at the show. I would like to thank every one that voted on my car. The award came as a surprise and an honor. My wife did the detailing so she gets the thanks as well. Volo museum was fun even though only six of us went. It was really great to talk with every one. I think enthusiasm at the show has won my wife over to the Fiero. I told her it wasn't just another car. Now I can spend more money with out all the begging... I hope. OOPS..... She just looked over my sholder and said " In my dreams" O-Well back to the begging.

LOL! You guys need the extra time up there that we have down here so you can make all those weird left turns you guys do.
I'm just still bitter about the fact that I showed up to dinner an hour and fifteen minutes early, and I was hungry then, and then I had to wait an hour before we went....

Oh that would suck. You should have driven down with Tigger and Fieromaster88 and gone to Hooters with us at lunch. They had some great......food there.

I wish I'd been able to come down there with them, but something came up friday night, and then I spent saturday morning trying to finish my keyless entry system install. I like hooters.......food, too
On a side note, while at the show I joined NIFE, but I think the address I gave them is wrong (I move every 3 months, its really weird), do you know who I should contact to get that straightened out? Thanks!

Thanks to NIFE for a great day. I had a great time as usual. It is always nice to see old friends and meet new ones.
One car that caught my eye is this modified GT. Some fresh ideas are always nice to see. I was told that the kit cost $1300.

Fred, I belive that kit is from a glass guy in indaina. He was originally going to do the clear lenses, last year he had a similar set up on his table, but it had a lot of vents glassed into it.. looks good though
