I certainly had a good time. Horse shoes, Frisbee, excellent food and a car show.
Pete and I got to "show off" the DirtMaster 2000 (Nissan SE-R) that was his first car, first track car, and 3rd rally-x car. I believe that we won the Patina and Outstanding Shine (POS) award almost solely on the merits of the distinct musty aroma courtesy of a year's storage with a leaky door seal. Luckily for the judges, we Lysol'ed the car to remove the active mold and alergens. The 30+ pounds of dirt inside the car probably didn't hurt our chances either.
One of the down sides of rally-x with a car with inadequate exhaust systems is the need to run with the windows down (i.e.: dusty).

Thanks for all those who helped put this together and for all the fine and friendly folks who made the outing a fun event.

It was fun to stand close enough to the LeMons car to taste the lemon aid. Fortunately the electric cool aid did not kick in and lure me into the Chump Car/LeMons madness....yet.

P.S.: I think I need to teach a few folks how to finish a beer. As one of the official garbage removers, I discovered that some folks refuse to drain a bottle. I got about 1/2 quart of beer on me and the back of the truck. Thank goodness I wasn't stopped for a "routine vehicle check". If I'm around, never, never throw away a perfectly good beer (i.e. any beer that isn't finished. :P ); I can think of a proper way to dispose of beer.

Damn Charlie, I had much higher expectations of that crowd than that. Sad.....

It dawned on me later that it wasn't clear.... The POS award went to the WRX. We were impressed by how bad it smelled and as new as it was. Keep up the good work!

Good news for you... with that leather tree 3 pack you've got one for each with a spare!

Oh, well. I thought that we had it nailed with the DirtMaster. The WRX is the dog's chauffeur driven limo. Gotta love the dog, gotta hate the aroma. I must confess there isn't enough Fabreeze in the state to make that one sweet smelling. Of course the work boots in the back that were used for a brief stint as a grease-to-fuel job probably didn't help either.
Sigh,
Charlie G

The catering was done by my co-worker. If anyone ever needs a caterer let me know and I'll put you in contact.
