Great racing on Saturday, good parts for sale, lots of nice show cars, and tons of killer race cars!
How about Lauffer 5.25 for a pass! you should have seen it.

If you didn't make it this year you need to get it on the calendar for next year.

Great Job to Scott and EVERY person that was involved in putting this event together.
GREAT TIME ALL WEEKEND!
even the wife had fun!
Thanks for the corner of your tent Tim, my wife said to thank you.

What a wild weekend!

We did a 1175 mile round trip @ average cruising speed of 75mph!!!!!

The 2L type4 and freeway flyer sure was a nice combo for this trip!

Made it friday @ 7.10m for the cruisenight and won VW Most likely to be towed home LOL what an honor one of the best looking trophies I have ever won!!!!!

After that we went to Hooters for some hot wings :twisted:

Then with a full stomach we went for Orangeburg Dragstrip where we arrived little after 1am! We were third to arrive at the scene!

As saturday progressed things started to come together at what was going to be a killer event!

We were invited to show our Most likely to be towed VW in the show area and we actually even won a top25 spot ! WOW 2 awards on one weekend when I never in my wildest dreams would have expected 1!

The races were awesome !

Thanks for scott and his crew for this ubercool event!

We will be there in 2011 for sure!

Great weekend- My wife and I had a great time - looking forward to next year.

Got home last night, had a blast. the drag racing was top notch, the heat was almost too hot to breath and drink beer.

the spot has a lot of room and could accomodate many more show cars so next year we need more people to come for that also.

Plenty of swap space too, so bring your stuff to swap.

thanks for the great weekend scott, my son was really happy to receive that free guitar on his birthday!! and he was only hoping for a free t-shirt! lol

Do that! No regrets! :P

I've got to hand it to Scott for putting on an awesome event!
Also can't say enough good about all the Cali guys for hitting the road and putting on a show! :shock: These guys are putting butts in the stands for good reason.
There were some class-act race teams there. From the R& S crew to the Cooker Gang , USE racers to name a few. These Guys Bring it. I wouldn't miss this event next year.

Scott and Krew, great venue! We drove up from Miami and had a blast all weekend. The racing was truly awesome. The track facility, concessions, racers, crowd, pits...all top notch! I'll definitely make it a point to come back next year. You guys have put something together here that is "spectator friendly". Reasonable gate fee, free show car, free bottled water throughout the day, good selection of vendors in swap area and most of all...great racing and at night!! You definitely know how to cater to everyone and because of that, I'm sure you have laid the foundation to build a great yearly event!
Props from the MIA!!

Only negative for me was I locked up my motor 200 miles shy from my house :x Friend drove up the 200 miles and trailered my bus back. Besides that, great weekend!
