hi to all there seems to be alot of car shows in your local area going on and i realize it takes a certain amount of cash to make it go.unfortanull y for some of us tis usaully money or time off from work to get there as the problem.i know it cots a small fortune to go to knotts last year.with gas eats hotel room some times your priced right out of there and ocourse some show dont want you cause your not 73 75 or older.the souliton would be maybe meets like a cuise in located in the middle area of your local area where gas food woulndt be a buje.t buster.i know i have cut back alot myself and as right now im only going to the vallejo ford show and thats kind of end of season.post any ideas that might work.the vallejo show has thrown in a new wrinkle where all cars that want to park together must now drive in together and you know some of us like to come at different times.so iguess it would be nice to post hey everybody meet at a local drive in or area so costs arent such a huge factor. thanks for your time chris in cenrtal ca. :fastcar:
