For those that haven't seen this one, it's got some really nice cars, really good food, and the music/entertainment is top notch as well. A couple of years ago, Sandy got a picture of her and Elvis standing in front of our buggy! Not that he's gonna be there this time, but you get the idea...

Yes indeed: As we say in the South "Ya'll Come". I'm always proud to see a nice showing of Buggies at the Autofest.

Good job guys. I would have loved to come but it's my fault for not looking at the web site because I would have come to that one. Maybe next year. I will try to pay more attention to the web site.

In the picture of the T Bucket with the minature clone next to it, the small one was a BBQ pit. The engine was the actual pit, and the smoke came out of the header pipes. Pretty clever.

Russ, I wish you could have made it. It's been too long since I've gotten to see you guys. I hope things are getting better with the back.

It must have been the matching shirts that helped you guys win. It certainly wasn't the buggies qualities that garnered those trophy's :mrgreen:

Richard's name is now on the Doom Buggy Award. So thoughtful of Bryan to bring the name plate and even install it free of charge. What a guy...... :lol:
