    Thank you Jim...that always means a lot to me...and it means people are reading GG's Gazette & enjoying it...you too, Django...

    And while we are on the subject...I'd be remiss (means I'd miss a marketing opportunity) if I didn't mention the SECOND of my books has been released and available for purchase... "Fast Cars, 4-speeds and Fist-fights" is available from my website or Amazon.com...and if you like the "Banging the Gears" columns...you will also like "Bangin' Gears and Bustin' Heads" ...my first book.

    Both books feature social commentary about the 1960's between the "Episodes" and the second book has a fictional story in it...

    And Jim...that is the way I remember it...!!!

  2. Good Guys is not a bad deal if like somebody said ya look at it as a mag supscription.......they do some kool events on the west coast and since NSRA doesnt do crap out here GG is a way to go, it seems to help bridge the gap between old school and the billetboys by every body hanging in the same area...Me...I've been a member for over 10 years............ dont forget the vintage drags!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have been a member for quite a long time. The Gazzette is really good. Especially the Indy coverage issue from this year. Thanks to Kirk it was the first time my car has been in a mag of any sorts. I like good guys as a whole. Allot of people bitch about the price of joining or entering a car but it is that way across the board for the large traveling shows. I look forward to the indy show because of the people I see that I only see that weekend of the year. If you go to these big shows it is impossible to not make friends with others from who knows where. Go and enjoy your self.

    The GG Charlotte show has a couple of very unique features. Two of the reasons I have return many, many times.

    My favorite is driving on the track UNDER THE LIGHTS which is WAY different then the GG Kansas City show where you drive during the daylight hours.

    The second unique feature is the Thursday poker run to the NASCAR shops. Doesn't get any better then driving thru the countryside in that part of the country with hundreds of other hot rods and stopping every so often to check out a shop.

    My only issue, and the reason I haven't gone since I purchased Big Olds, is the time of year. Sometimes the weather was AWESOME (shorts, t-shirts, sandels and top down), sometimes it was bitter cold (with jeans, boots, gloves, hats and no one hanging out at nite cuz it was too cold) I can't take that chance anylonger till I have a top and interior.

    I have enjoyed all the GG events I've gone to. Some more then others but they are all fun. How can you not have fun at a car event??

    Oh yeah, and the third reason I go is the handsome men running around on golf carts all weekend.:D

  25. I was a member for a few years and looked forward to the Gazette. It had a lot of good photos and articles. I quite when I kept seeing more and more high dollar kustoms and rods. The gate prices were also pretty high. Maybe after hearing the promos here I should consider rejoining.............

    Hey 36tbird you don't have enough post to be worthy yet in time you to shall be worthy. The Goodguy's membership is a sub to a mag and that is it.Hell it seems to me Ryan takes better care of his alliance member than Goodguys or NSRA as far as any of these memberships go.
     
  27. Joined for the gazette. I like the Delmar show,cause you can un-cork and cruise inside the show.
     
  28. Man is this place going to shit.......:D
