    That car is chopped. I took video and no pics. Look for a samall video on youtube.

    Total car count was 26.
    Drag racing was almost a bust. We got to run for 45minutes before the bad weather moved in.Past that it was a perfect weekend. A total success. I enjoyed meeting new and old friends alike. I had the time of my life. Can't wait for next year.

    I implore every mavericker/cometeer to support these events. Regardless of which club floats your boat.

    I would like to take the time and wish Nick and the MCCI a successful roundup.:thumbs2:

    That's great Lance...26 cars is great for a 1st event.
    Thanks for the update.

    Hey Guys,

    I just uploaded some pics from the drag strip the other night to the gallery. I didn't get too many shots, but, these are some of the better ones. Mother Nature won the first round on this night. You can see the ominous clouds in the background in a lot of the pics! I had a great time though. I sure wish I was going to be able to make it to DC!

    I'll look through all of the pics again later and see if there are any more that I can post.

    I'll also go back later and add some captions to the ones that I posted already.

    Later,

    It was an awesome event, already looking forward to next year! Other than the rain on Thursday night , the weather could not have been more ideal. It was actually cold sitting outside at midnight!

    Thanks to everyone for making it possible.
