Very nice results Congrats to all.

Here are some of my WOW shots







Our club's display included a flat screen playing Fiero videos round the clock. (Thanks Tony)


Thanks to all that attended, and buffed their cars for hours to represent the club.

In case you've missed it - some other show highlights

















My personal favorite was a MIL spec sports bike that was completely customized with military related parts..

Thank you, and to all our guys who helped us out and came to see us at the show.

Public reception of the Fieros was very good. We had lots of good comments, questions and discussions. We'll likely be rounding up some new members as a result this year. No snide remarks, or at least nobody stopped to voice them (guess they decided to keep their bad comments to themselves).

Thanks Dillion. Glad you had a chance to come see us.

While the local weekend Show 'n Shines during the summer are good exposure, sometimes the only attendees are the other vehicle partipants. That's why we wanted to be in a show with the prestige and large attendance that World of Wheels has. We met quite a few Fiero owners who still didn't know we existed and hopefully will check us out once our meetings are underway again.

It's also imperative to have top notch cars (quality over quantity), an eye catching display and things to get people chatting. Club displays are allowed a maximum of 8 cars, but we could only round up 6 that were suitable for this years show. We're shooting for 8 next year and will hopefully get higher scoring in our classes.

I spent one day at the club display and was impressed at the good questions and interst shown in the cars. A good way to spend a day.
