    I didn't happen to get into much trouble but I did hang out with a great bunch of Assholes from this side of the equator. If it wasn't such a damn good show why else would I still be in a car for the 2nd straight day in a row for a total of more then 20 hours right?

    Ryan nice seeing you as usual but Stop copying my style with that hat :). I forgot to act on my mental note of scooping up an issue of Fuel Magazine. Damn it.

    Mr. Ford, Joe T Creep, Lucky Burton, Evel, Dreddy Bear and Chris, I had a great time hanging with y'all!!!

    I Love Austin and Love the Roundup. I'll hopefully be back next year.

    As a read that last part the door slammed and a gust of wind blew open the shutters and an all black owl flew in and landed on the top of the monitor. Of course I rubbed my eyes to be sure but...it was gone? Should I be scared? :)

    Had a great time, and it was great to meet you Ryan. I too stayed in our booth all weekend talking... Fun and got to meet tons of folks out there. I wish I could have had a bit more time to check out all the cars. Next year a couple of extra days so the drive doesn't wipe me out and some evening partying!

    The show somehow felt incomplete without seeing the T/C coupe.

    Ryan, it was good to have you as a neighbor at the show, even though we had very little time to actually hang out.

    The show seemed to go by really fast this year. Maybe it was the wind.

    I will hopefully get the opportunity to be there next year, and every year there after after I blow this popsicle stand (East Coast)
     
  23. Were you listening to"only after dark" by Tito and Tarantula? I would be scared then.:D
     
  24. Thanks for the kind words, Ryan - you know, half the fun of putting this deal on is seeing what you write about it afterwords. Too funny.

    This show is the biggest, coolest thing I get to do all year with all of my friends and family. Thanks to everyone for all the support for 11 years and counting. We must be doing something right.

    My first time to go the Round Up at the Expo Center. I've enjoyed the South Congress drags for several years, but I could not believe the number of cars that were at the expo grounds this year. We walked forever! A buddy from Houston came over and another flew in from CA.

    What a great time! Thanks to all who made it possible.

    This was my first time and I had a blast.. I'm already planning for next year. I can't wait to hit up the Revolution and become a regular to Austin.

    Great show. I missed a lot of the people I would have liked to meet but I also met a lot of the people I wanted to meet.
