Snow in KY in November? That IS crazy! It’s even a little early for that up here in Ontario, Canada! Nice to see an event like this come together. While I don’t have first hand experience organizing a show I appreciate the great amount of “behind the scenes” work that it takes to make a good event like this succeed.

It sure seems like it Tom, but now there are no more for me to go too until next year.
Nice! I used to compete in a lot of contests in Louisville back in the '90's. Lots of great talent then, and looks like there's still a lot of great talent now! Love the green Chevy at the 4:10 mark. Looks REALLY familiar, at least the 'style' does. I use to do a lot of Slammers, and that one reminds me of something Kenny Brickell would have built back then. Matter of fact, he inspired me to start building slammers. ;) Still building, although not competitive any more. At least not for the last 10 years anyway. ;)
@THROTTLEPOWER
Жыл бұрын
Oh yea, Ken is still building and bringing his models to the shows Ronald!! I enjoy spending time with Ken as he has also inspired me to build slammers. If your still around the Louisville area try stopping by one of the contests next year and say "Hi" to Ken. Bring some of your models to, I would love to see them!!
