Hey ya'll. Since I'm doing my 1st show this Saturday, I thought I'd do a search for tips/advice/suggestions and got NIL in the either the "How To" or "All Show" threads ... ;crap
Any thought to a thread on this and to those that have done shows before, what can ya tell me? I'm basically planning to have fun..

Man, I had fun. The weather was beautiful (in the high 70's). I didn't win anything, but a nice sunburn. It was just a cruise-in. No trophies.. It was cool though. The only issue I had was that my camera died and I had to use my cell phone to take pics too. I have to buy more stuff for the car now too.... lol
I had alot of folks checking out the ride and liking it. Kids loved it. Alot of folks said that they had never seen that kind of body kit before. One guy said that when he shows his wife the pics of it, she's gonna want to get her GA hooked up... lol. I see now that I have to put together a book on where I got my mods and on the SC/T model itself.
BTW Mark, you should be having some business coming your way. I talked about where I got my stuff and GAGT.
The cruise-in was sponsored by Finish Masters, which bought out AutoColor recently. This was the 9th year for this event.
Here's a link to the past events... http://www.autocolor.com/photos/aug-cruisein-2006/index.htm

I got quite a few flyers put on the car for other shows/meets. There's gonna be one in Saluda, S.C on November 2nd. Registration is $20 and there are supposed to be trophies. I might just hit that one up too. It's only an hour from Augusta.
I've got the show bug now... lol lol ;crap
I'll be posting pics on my CarDomain
