    Billetproof Florida: April 9, 2011
    Billetproof is back in Florida for the 4th year! Last year 450 hot rods braved the cold/wet weather and had the last laugh when the day ended up being sunny and warm in the afternoon. Come on out to the Alachua County Fairgrounds in Gainesville, FL. There is plenty of room for hot rods and customs, vendors and a huge swap meet.


    Hosted by the PoorBoys Florida (a bunch of great guys and gals, be sure to say thank for all their hard work when you come in the gate)

    we appreciate your enthusiasm for getting your bitchin car into the show, and your creativity :D... actually the photo copied covers you had for your car looked REALLY good... and we were all bowled over by it when you pulled up the first year.. we HAD to let you in...

    however....

    over the years others have taken it to the next step and have started showing up with shitty versions of your finely crafted work and then taking them off when just inside the gate... which leaves me to get all of the "I went to Billetproof and saw a car with Billet Wheels maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!!!!" type of complaints. So its a funny joke between friends and that spread to others and has now run its course.

    Not bad mouthing you, in fact, I really dig your car and enjoyed the humor, effort and creativity you showed in crafting your wheel covers. But its time for the trend to come to an end.

    That being said, you car looks REALLY good with the type of tires and wheels you put on the wheel covers. ;)

    see you at the show Jeff!!

    The guy that painted his billet wheels flat black last year was certainly in the right spirit. :D

    Well it is not looking good for me to be there this year but I will most definitely be doing the "Body Basher" trophy if it is okay.

    New Guy here, but after what I saw at the Billetproof drags in lakeland, a mini bike class would be super. There were some really slick mini bikes in attendance and from what I saw unfinished, mini bikes are coming on strong.
