Hi all, I just got back from the national meet in Dallas, and it was something else! A ton of fun, an amazing array of cool people, and all perfectly organized by Hightower and his wife. Before I go on, let me first give out some major props to SVT_Chris who came down all the way from canada, and who braved a water pump death, and a nitrous line blowing up, and somehow still managed to maintain a smile! Also Chris Hightower is indeed a mad genius, those tailights were, quite frankly, amazing. And to everyone who was friendly and open to talking about their cars, much thanks! I think some of the best experiences were driving in a huge line of SVT's with a couple of SE's tossed into the mix through downtown dallas, ah my, all the stares, it was too cool  I'll perhaps post a little more later on, for now it's off to work. Any of you guys getting back from nationals post your thoughts here! Questions, post em too!

Oh yeah, I had a blast too! There were some beautiful cars out there, and it gave me more ideas than I have money. Thanks to all those who drove so far to be with us. Post some pics, videos, whatever you got.
And, of course, thanks a million to Chris and Kelly for getting this thing together!

We had a blast too! It was so nice to meet everyone. Too bad we lost 3 Contours. I know "Canada Kris" got his water pump fixed & that Joey is currently stranded in Houston. Help Joey if you can! I'm not sure about Brad's car. We all wanted to know what happened with that. We are hoping for some good news. Other that that I think everything went off pretty good. I can't wait to see the pictures! I'm off to bed. I am so tired.

 Brad lost his tranny. It's an automatic that went south. Far south. Here are the best pics I took all weekend.
