Went many years ago and was well worth it for sure. But it's a dam shame we have to worry about OUR cars getting jacked. I just don't get what the hell is driving these nut jobs to rip people off of thier prized cars!!! Really pisses me off and the reat of us in the N.O. area.

We went Fri Nite and I dont want to rain on anyones parade but it cost us $38 to walk around for an hour to see pretty much what I can see on the street for free, minus the real show circuit cars (trailer queens that go all around the country in this show series, about 8-10 of those mega $ cars) I got a way better car buzz from CTC 2007, then WOW 2008,
Waaay to many choppers too, their cool but ever see cars in a chopper show? uh NO!

And NO F-BODIES of any variant what so ever...

YMMV
