    Wow, there are some great pictures in here so far. This WAS a good event. I really liked this location compared to Carson's Live, and it was nice to put some faces to some of the names on here.

    I'll post some of my pictures and some video clips tomorrow when I have time to deal with them. The Velvet Kittens were very nice.

    Stephanie & Ron looks like it was a great event with a huge turn out. Sorry we did not make it, unfortunately did not get done with Sat. jobs until just past 6. Great job planning, Thanks.

    Don and Carolyn - your lack of presence was definitely noticed. Wish you could have made it. Carolyn could have worn out her camera trying to keep up with the kittens!

    Love that red Countach! AWESOME! That was my fav of all the Lambo's. Still is really, though I have to say the up coming Gallardo replacement looks pretty awesome. Still like most all the F-cars better, but I certainly would not mind having some outrageous looking Lambo in the garage!

    We need something like that down here in Austin...Kind of like the upcoming Concours down at the San Marcos airport...that should be fun... Hope someone remembers to call is the hot girls for photo ops!! ;)

    For those who missed it, Tillman got motorboated by one of the Velvet Kittens. Stephanie likely got a better picture than I did; I was a little late.

    More pics to come :).

    They would love to have us back. They had a great time as well. If I get an overwhelming response to do this again at the same place - I'll be happy to do it - I'm thinking end of June. Give me some feed backs on likes and don't likes and Ron and I will do our best to top this one.

    Thanks again to Ron and Steph for setting this up. Fabulous fun.


    I do, however, think I'm done drinking in public :)

    LOL I knew someone would get that shot I missed.
    ------------------------

    Opinion of show:

    For my 2 cents, I liked everything about this location. Good parking, low traffic, safe location.

    The only improvement I can think of is if we could get the word out better to get some other owners out in their Aston Martins, Lotuses, Lamborghinis, Rolls Royces, Bentleys, etc. More is always better :), and sometimes some of the more eclectic cars are interesting to look at. The meetings at Paciugo always got some really uncommon cars attending.

    I showed the pictures I took to my Corvette buddies, and they wish they knew about it to come out. I didn't know whether to tell them or not, since I didn't know the parking lot would be massive.

    There are a lot of Ferrari 599s and Aston Martins between Preston Center and Uptown, so I'm surprised we didn't see a lot of them at the event.

    Here's the video I made. I originally had the cars included more, but the program crashed in the middle of saving and my file got corrupted. I didn't want to start over, so I cut a lot out. It got a little choppy, but I got tired of working on it.

    The red Countach and Lightguy's 512 are in it more than any others, but I'm fairly certain most of you won't notice the 512 in the video unless you watch it a few times.

    I can tell you like the redhead, that is my favorite too. :) 3:00 minute video and you didn't get a scan of the entire parking lot? I think you captured 4 of 40 cars that were there. Got the girls though! :)

    Yeah, the redhead was cute :). They were all actually pretty good looking, but she was my favorite. The brunette was pretty feisty and the dark blonde/light brunette was a good singer.

    My original video had the parking lot, but after Pinnacle crashed and corrupted the file, I didn't want to have to go through all that footage again. Besides, the girls looked good dancing. :)

    I have some good pictures of the parking lot here:

    If I go to the event in Cresson next week, I'll be sure to bring the video camera and get some car action :D.
