If any of you are bored, the Happy Days Car show in Grinnell is this Saturday. It's a nice show with a wide variety. I'll be there with the C5.

Yep my dad and I went to ERP today to run his Mini Cooper "S" and we both had a lot of fun. The best part was riding with Paul with the red Trak pac 427 mustang that actually knows how to drive fast lol.

I had 2 spots in the Arm drop live @ Cedar falls next week but had to back out since Eddyville has the bike points races Saturday and sunday.......Boo!

I think I maybe saw that Roush 427 on trailer headed back towards DM yesterday, red with the track pack wing. Sharp looking car for sure, I take it they had the autocross course open?

well since there were 3 two year old mustangs with 10 miles on them. and some retarded scion thing. they all took the top 4 tropheys. and brians (oh2le) car was way cleaner than mine and before i even got out of my car, he told me to not even do last minute touch ups on my car cuz he wasnt going to win anything. so right there i knew i wasted my money, especially since i didnt even win a door prize lol.

i hope you arent friends with the judges cuz i made a smart *** comment to them when they were judging my car, they werent very happy i made it, i knew i wasnt going to win anyway.

i know its not the judges fault for the lack of classes for camaros and mustangs newer than 1987, but a 2 year old mustang shouldnt even be in a car show, or that new of a car should be in its own class.
