Had a great time at the truck show didn't get to stay as long as I wanted to but got to see some great lookin trucks and Brian and the rest did a great job on getting things together. Also thanks to Southern Ky Classics got a great deal on a cowl induction hood for my 86 Silverado will post some pics when my wife down loads them and tks again for a great show

TY Brian & Mandy for putting on an Awesome Show. Around 100 Trucks entered,
Great times, Great Fun, and the thing that who ever didn't come will regret .....

NO RAIN

I can't wait till next year

Hate that I missed it. Would have made it if some prick hadn't slashed one of my tires. Glad it turned out well. Hope next year is even better.

Bryan did a great job of putting this together. I think everyone had a great time.

One comment I did hear from a participant... They had hoped to see some "BIG" trucks there. I'm pretty sure it came from the gent that was driving the custom mini-peterbilt. Said he liked parking it next to a full sized Pete. The other guy he was chatting with also seemed to act like it would have been nice to see some BIG trucks. I've seen pictures from shows that are full of custom and vintage big rigs...maybe that could be another forum we need to search for to recruit participants for the next go round?


Another group we may have overlooked (Not sure on this one, I know Bryan posted about this show on a lot of truck forums)....The lifted up diesel 4x4 crowd. You know the ones I'm talking about. The ones with the ginormous anounts of lift that never haul anything... They obviously have money (or credit) so we know they can afford $25 for a truck show. I know at the Rod Runs in Pigeon Forge those guys are fanatical about showing off their rigs.

For an inaugural event, I think today was exceptional....And it has the potential to only get better if that's what Bryan and everyone else decides to do with it.

I'm going to hit the sack....I'll work on going through and editing my pics in the morning....By the way...was my lens cap off???

Uh...Was about to get in the bed when I thought of another group to invite to the next one....Military vehicles. You know, the Power Wagons, M37s & Jeeps. I'm positive that there are forums out there for them as well. I think one of them is Military Preservationist ...somethin somethin???? Anyway, it's something to think about.


G'nite

Glad to hear that it was a good show and no rain. Can't wait for pics.

I know that at least 5 people took pic's, you know who you are, so hopefully
sometime today after they are rested we will get to see some killer pictures.

Right?

Kudos to Brian for all his hard work in the show! The wife and I had a great time! The trophies were killer, and I thought the turn-out was great! Not a fan of the minis crowd, but that's just the grumpy old man inside me, lol. I will be posting pics soon, hopefully by this evening!

PS It was a pleasure meetin some of the folks from the board! You guys rock

Thanks Brain and crew for having the forethought to do "your own thing". I personally think the show was a great success!!! ......and not because I won trophies. I can't wait to see what it will be next year. It's great to have something like this in our backyard.

Well, the first negative of the show. Some _________ took my banner down in the park. When I say took, I mean stole. Unless someone took it and planned on giving it back to me. I called the parks director and he talked to his guy who was working and said he had not seen it. Man, am I furious!!!!!

Brian,

I thought we got all the banners. The last one we took down was a black one. I think someone handed it to Woody. And I think Woody may have it with him. Josh seems to think that it is supposed to be with Woody? Have you checked with everyone who was cleaning up? Woody, Craig, everyone? Perhaps someone put it up in one of the trucks you had?

I'm sure we will find it. I just can't see someone trying to take it. Strange.

Wish I could come help!
:D ~jewels.

BTW, the whole thing was a blast. I've posted lots of pics in the other thread. Enjoy!
And THANK YOU to Brian -- you made it all happen. Can't wait until next year! :D

Jewels, this was the one that was at the road at the entrance. I had to go back out and grab the cones and bring them back to the police dept. I saw it at that time and realized I had forgotten it. Came back a few minutes ago and it was gone.

Hopefully someone will brag about it to someone else
and it can be recovered in future? (Mention this on FB)

Sorry bout the sign...hopefully it turns up....

Checked out the pic threads...AWESOME show!!!

The show awards looked GREAT! Does anyone have pics of who won what awards? I recognize a few of the trucks from this board and from the other board.

I handed them out when Bryan called them out.

No idea if anyone took any pic's of that?

I believe I remember several of the award recipients, so I will start a thread and maybe between us all we can piece it together :)

I have Asa's pics and a list of who won what. I will post the recipient and their truck in a bit.

Already ahead of ya Bro

I see that now

Still a few to add, can't remember them all

Sorry about the banner, hopefully someone will do the right thing and give it back. B, thanks again for your hard work.

<-- Wishes the whole thing would have lasted longer

Maybe next year.

I didn't mean just the show, I also meant the whole weekend
of food, trucks, fun, trucks, fellowship, and did I say Trucks?

I know. Next year I say we start on Thursday.

I'll 2nd that, we just need a 3rd?

okay, if I must. 3rd it

I'll vote for that!

Motion carries.

Sweet, let the planning begin

I think we just had our first official meeting.

Looks like it well I might add. Keep up the good work.

Hopefully the sign show up and hopefully I can get my truck in the show next year

Joe from the big board wrote this about the show:

Good write up B (except for the location of White house.) You and your trusty crew made it happen and it can only get better from here. Hope i get to make the next one.

WoW, I want to have that framed

Here is an event which started out as a one day show.
http://www.backtothebricks.org/index2.html

That's a neat show Protruck

It's the same week as all the stuff at Woodward Ave. in Detroit. I've gone up the last 3 years and drive back and forth between the two events. There are people in lawn chairs for miles watching all the cruisers. Woodward Dream Cruise is officially a saturday only event but the place is packed with cruisers every night of the week leading up to it. If you have never been there you need to go at least once!
