Or better, bring a customer's "award" to the show.
I heard that the Lambo didn't belong to the guy that brought it, and was revving it to 1million rpm cold.

Yeah the guy who owns it gave him the keys to it that morning, they did not even know each other that well. I guess the owner did not care that much. Too much money and not enough brains.

Wow....last year the old models cleaned house! I would probably also make a "Supercar" class. There's no way us watercoolers can compete with a) the 1946 Austin-Healey or the $280K Gallardo.

But who am I to talk. I didn't even participate :/

Wrong.

That guy that brought is the owner's personal mechanic. He's been working for him for years. Cool guy. He works down at Underriner during the day but said his "moonlighting" gig is getting to the point of full-time work.

The owner is a big-business type who's got a place in Red Lodge, owns a ton of cars and is a "car nut with a ton of money" - something I think we'd all love to be some day.

My bad I guess I heard him wrong. I'll have to pay more attention next time.

That's cool and all, but I would rather be a regular guy with a job and NOT a ton of money. Just enough to satisfy my love for my hobbies. So, a car nut, with just enough money :laughing:

IMO that makes a person appreciate what they have and what they do so much more. (I.E. the gentleman who brought the car to the show).

Regardless, it was cool to have the car at the show and be able to see it in person. :thumbsup:
