    We had a great time in McGregor, TX at our meet!

    Eight cars on the Maverick/Comet row! Several more attended on foot.

    The sponsors of the show gave us the trophy for the club with the best attendance again! :yahoo:

    Great Pictures Doug. We had a great time. I'll say The Texas Mini-Meet was a great success. I enjoyed seeing how much progress Brian made on his 73.

    I think we all had a good time!

    Darnedest thing on the way to the meet. I had one Maverick tailgating me and another a few yards behind that one! Can you imagine that? (see picture)

    Oh yea! The reason I didn't post it:

    The girl somehow took a blurry 1-second video instead of a picture on my camera!:(

    We'll have to see what she took on Brian's camera (After she apparently bumped the time delay switch on his camera).:rolleyes:
