Default Barrett-Jackson in OC

Anybody else going to the Barrett-Jackson auto auction in OC this weekend? A family friend wound up with two extra tickets and I'll be going with my dad.
$13 Fri/Sun, $18 Saturday, at the door.

Lots of super cool cars & hot girls to check out. I was looking at the Foose Hemisphere when Michael Anthony (Van Halen bassist), and his daughter walked up & he started talking to me about how cool that car was.
