I`ll be going Sat thanks to Mike & Geoff from NLP. I`m looking forward to seeing lots of cool parts and meeting some of the many people I`ve only talked to on the phone.

Man, the show was freaking huge. I couldn't do it all in one day with the reps and companies I had to visit. I'd recommend it as well to anyone that has the connection.

One of the interesting things I saw:

Toyo drag race slicks and front runners

That was a great show, more LS1 stuff then I thought I would see. There is lots of new parts for LS1 cars coming this year. It was hard to look at the car parts with all the fine looking ladies walking around.
