Was OK, still had a good time for the most part. HPD entered 7 cars together and 4 awards were taken home. There was another HPD car under the Icon flag. Really Mike at Icon was the only go fast tuner out there. I just like looking at cars period so that made me happy. Some cars were way-over board and we had a few laughs.....

Lots of nice C6 Z06s and yes the C5 is still alive.

- Took home 3rd place in C5 Street Stock Class. Was very shocked to hear my name called.

Could have been better! Hope next year they get the word out early.

Troy.

I agree with you on the chrome kits, and accents. That crap is wack!
