09/17/06- Don't ask me the
name of this show and who put it together, I am doing
my very
best to forget. I am trying to forget everything about this
show, because
everything about it was lame. So forgive the
sarcastic tone prevalent on this page, but considering the
amount of money I have spent on therapy to work out the issues
created by the sheer trauma of being exposed to that car
show.... well...
Not to want to
sound like a whiner, but let's list a few of the things that
were NOT happening at that show: It was super hot, it was super
windy, we were parked next to a huge dirt field and ate dirt all
day. All of which I can easily deal with. However, what I had
difficulty dealing with: the people organizing the show did not
have a single vendor selling drinks or food. No restrooms or
porta potty. Complete disorganization. An obvious complete lack
of promotion resulted in that only about 50 spectators showed up
(if that). We got corralled in the back lot behind a restaurant,
where no one could see us. Meanwhile us car owners were stuck
there, eating massive amounts of dirt and dehydrating from 8AM
until 3PM. And we had to pay $30 for the privilege of eating
sand and turning into crispy human potato chips. To add insult
to injury, even the judging was lame. And I am not saying that
because I did not win anything, that's no big deal, I don't have
a "show car" to begin with. No, I say that because when a
motorcycle wins because they are the ONLY motorcycle in the
class, then it makes you wonder just how valid the whole show
is... Oh well, it was an experience I guess, and what I have
learned is that I AM NEVER DOING THIS AGAIN! Thank God we
had friends there to cheer us up! Otherwise I would have
probably simply hung myself with my fan belt to put an
end to my misery LOLOL. :P..
