The Road Rockets Car Club would like to thank EVERYONE who participated in this past weekend's 3rd Annual Motorama 1962. Without all of the great people and outstanding vehicles we would have never been able to make it the success that it was! There were so many people who worked very hard to make this show what it was, most importantly all of our friends who showed up to display their cars, some traveling as far away as St. Louis! A special thank you goes out to John Cooper for all of his hard work, Jim Linder from Bubba's Hot Rod Shop for providing the decals for the show, Dan Huffman for running the drive-in movies, Oil Can Harry for his wonderful Stoutfield slide-show, John Welsh for designing and building our 8ft tall traveling People's Choice Trophy, Alan Mayes and Ol'Skool Rodz for their support of the show, and Bill Bronson for bringing out his 1952 Indy Motorama "Give Away" car, it was certainly a special treat for everyone! A special thank you also goes out to all of the Indy Drag Racers who showed up to participate in our Memorbilia Dispay; Wayne Jones, Paul Davis, Phil Hobbs, Chuck Witmer and Pee Wee Whitaker! They all had a fantastic weekend catching up on old times, some seeing eachother for the first time in over 30 years! They all also had fun standing for pictures and sigining autographs! We would also like to thank all those who participated in the Pin-Striper's Panel Jam who raised money for the Soap Box Derby. Also we would like to thank all of the HAMBers who participated in the Meet and Greet at the Road Rocket tent.... the decals were fantastic! Another BIG thank you goes out to the Cincinatti Auto Replicas Model Car Club for setting up and sharing their passion of model cars! A BIG CONGRATULATIONS goes out to Mike Lanning of Kokomo for winning our People's Choice Award with his awesome/outstanding/beautiful 1951 yellow Mercury Custom! A BIG CONGRATULATIONS also goes out to the Push Rods for showing up in force and taking home the Club Support trophy. Once again, we the Road Rockets could not have had a successful show without each one of our friends coming out on a frigid weekend to have a great time! The entire room was filled with great traditional rods, hot rods, customs, gassers, dragsters and Indy cars, along with GREAT PEOPLE!!!! Don't forget to mark your calendars for the 9th Annual Road Rocket Rumble being held 19-21st of June at the Clarion Waterfront Hotel, it'll be three days of outstanding fun!
