nice vids josh!! great day for sure...see you at HIN sat.
So there I was about 5 yards away filming the loudest exhaust contest. The Vette had pulled up and did his revs, then after a couple other cars he parked back in his spot which was right in the entrance way facing the street. One of those wooden horses was in front of the car. I hear some light revving and turn my head and I watched as the car slowly pushes the barrier with it's nose and hood, then the car creeps into the 8 foot tall bush which I believe actually stopped the vehicle because I did not even see tail lights come on. Basically someone really panicked. The car must have been in gear at one point to move forward, but as it moved across the street (which they were damn lucky nobody was driving on for that minute) I could here it still revving.
Another reason why they are lucky is that the entire street is literally crowded with parked cars on both sides. It really should be a one way and it just so happened to be that at that very moment nobody was parked in that spot next to the bush. Just after they moved the Vette back, a new Audi A6 parks there and the people go to church.
I then watched as almost the entire crowd of people at the show mobbed around the poor guys Vette with laughter and hysterics. I stood still knowing that s*** happens and he really did not need more embarrassment from me. Though of course it does bring a chuckle, I'm only human.

not that i care....but don't you think they should have a best in class, motor, interior, best riced out??? i thought the awards were pretty lame...like what 6...?
Yea, I thought there would be more classification to the awards. Though it was somewhat of a small show put on be the school and not a big car show company type of thing. Oh well.
Mark, your ride was super clean and I'm sure she would have won for best Mazda.
As for the other VR 8, I stopped by a couple times to see if the owner was around. I think he's a young college student from the 8 boards. Does not seem to want to be part of our community though as I posted much info about us and the show.
