BD, I thought you had made it last year. I don't know if we'll have another one or not. If we have anything, it would probably be something involving the antique truck clubs we are in. Have been asked several times by them to host a show, but with me being away at school, I don't really have time to help organize something and my Dad's back trouble has kept him from really wanting to mess with it for the time being. I'm not going to say an all Dodge GTG is out of the question, we'll just have to see how things go as time goes on.
Vaughn-- unfortunately, we don't really have enough room to get them all lined up for a good shot, nor do we have a camera with a wide enough lens!! I think the last count was 14 or 15. Most completed, but at least 3 under some form of restoration.

I'll have to see how things go, but a few minutes down the road from my place is the old Augusta International Raceway (roadcourse, dragstrip, etc.) It's been turned into Diamond Lakes Park and I'm involved with the AIRPS (preservation society) out there. Anyways, we've discussed having a vintage race car show there, but I've thought about looking into it and seeing about holding a GTG there. Probably would have to pay something, but there are a lot of things to do, baseball fields, fishing, camping, cookouts, etc. Have a brand new library complex up that has raquetball courts, a basketball court and walking track, so it would be a nice area to have something, especially for those with kids. I'll find out more as time goes on and see what can possibly be done.
