Man another year gone by and I still didn't get to meet the "Kev"....
Drove in from Vegas just to deliver our trophy. Landed at the show about 6:30, presented the trophy and got right back in the car to drive home.
Well maybe next year.

 

Awesome show.Axel your the man! well organised and had a blast.Couldnt say a bad thing about it.You deserve all the props in the world.The helldivers C.C from san diego had a great time.we even came away with a trophy for my shoebox.Much appreciated!!

 

Now that the hangover is starting to wear off........This was one of the best weekends EVER and "there was nothing we could do about it".

Thanks guys....

 

A lot of holes in the desert, and a lot of problems are buried in those holes. But you gotta do it right. I mean, you gotta have the hole already dug before you show up with a package in the trunk. Otherwise, you're talking about a half-hour to forty-five minutes worth of digging. And who knows who's gonna come along in that time? Pretty soon, you gotta dig a few more holes. You could be there all fuckin' night.

 

^^^^^Hahahahahahahah^^^^^

Who is this fuckin guy?

 

fogetta bout it..

 

Tommy: You know spider,your a fu*kin mumblin,stumblin little Fu*k,you know that.

-Rudi/RUDOG

 

The Lifter's chair trophy was our Suede Palace Club Pick, it was won by Arron from the Beatnicks, for his 31 model a coupe, It was hard to pick a car in the suede palace, there was alot of nice cars, we were at an even tie with Greg aimy's (g-man 51) shoe box and Arron 31 coupe, we spent two hours arguing, but our fellow club member Stan , showed up and broke the tie, special thanks to the strugglers and the Cochinos for flying out from texas and supporting the show,our Buddies from the helldivers built an ausome trophy and had some nice cars too, nice seeing Kiwi Kevan, I only get to see him a couple of times a year, this is by far one of best shows, I was waiting to see this year's Alter boys trophy, maybe Pete will come out next year, nice seeing Jersey Boy (Pat Prior ) from the Lopper's Car club Special thanks to Axle and John Buck for their hard work.
