... well, maybe "report" sounds a bit big ... just a short recap ...

First of all, anybody who decided to go somewhere else or had something else to do, you missed a great show ... I don't know any official count, but could imagine they had well over 500 cars there ... of them, again inofficial and without having actually counted them, I would think there have been a good 50 or even more F-Bodies (heck, FBE alone had 10 or 11 cars there in total yesterday and today) ... e.g. a 30th and a 25th anniversary T/A which both looked great ... and a twin of mine - another 98 Camaro Convertible, but black ...
As a small teaser, I've taken 262 pictures in total ... gotta sort them a bit, hope to have them up tomorrow or so ...
Apart from the show itself, I guess all the people there had fun - FBE did ... quite a few people did burn-outs, most of 'em getting in trouble for it ... :) again, see pics later ... :) The partying kept on for quite a while I think - from FBE reports, the last of our members quit somewhere around 2:30 or 3am - maybe somebody who was up that long could confirm that ;)
And me, I now know that Firebird seats do well as a makeshift bed ... :) with a sleeping bag and a jacket as pillow, I had a good night (apart from all the people doing there burnouts and messin around way into the morning), and even my dog bothered me less than he usually does at home (guess I should move him to the car for night times :) ). The seats would be nicer if they could be reclined a bit more ... Oh, and for the next meeting, I know another place I shouldn't forget to put sunscreen on ... my neck is killing me ... :(

Yeah, my arms got roasted!! :O

That show was AWESOME, guys!! It was kickass, and I think there were a few more than 500 Garry, but that is a pretty safe estimate. I'm really glad I went!! ;) For those of you who will be here next year, you gotta go, I know I will......

You guys made the show its all about the company you are with. We got pretty close to the female convertible, But no hands on rub downs. I enjoyed cruising Nurnberg, eye candy, great cars, and company (you guys) The show in Hockenheim will be put on by the same street magizine with driving on the F1 track show only no racing. I did not agree with the categories but I had a good time.Hopefully we willhave about 5 new members. Thanks for coming. Bruce
