    OK, I just got back home and I'm beat, but I wanted to say a little something to everyone who made it to BILLETPROOF before I crash out and become a vegetable...

    Today was AMAZING. You guys never cease to amaze me with your dedication, talent and support. The final count was 918. Yes, 918!!! There was something for everyone and lots of fresh cars made their debuts. I honestly thought that 800 cars was the most we'd ever have, but WOW! With double the number of vendors this year everyone seemed to have plenty to choose from shopping wise.

    The day blew me away! I got emotional a couple of times seeing old friends and thinking about the last 15 years or so of hot rodding in Northern California. I almost lost it a couple of times during the awards, but I think I pulled it off. I am stoked for all of you who came and enjoyed yourselves and grateful that you made the trek. You made my day! Thank you. You guys ARE Billetproof.

    Thanks, KIRK for putting on another great show. There was so much to do, and see, and H.A.M.B.ers to meet, that by the time I left my head was spinning.

    Kirk,
    Just want to say THANK YOU to you and all of the friends and family who keep this show going. It truly was an amazing show, as it is every year.
    Looking forward to 2007, and starting another decade of rust, primer, and metalflake.

    The day could not have gone smoother, the weather could not have been better, and the crowd could not have been cooler.

    One word...

    AMAZING!

    Yo This Is The Poor Boys 9th Year @ This Show. And Falling On The Tenth Anniversary, My Favorite Part Of The Show, Was To See Jay Ward And Kirk On The Stage Together With Nick And Dirty Running Around. It Was Just Like Old Times.

    Kirk, it was a great show! Yes, I managed to sneak out of the panel jam and look around a few times.

    918 cars? Yow! I was wondering about the number, given I don't remember the cars taking over that much near the entrance before.

    The panel jam was a blast! I'm glad you talked me into 'organizing' it last October. Looking forward to doing it again next year, now that I know more of what to do. :D

    Pictures of the panel jam are on the way.
