Haha, thats what I was saying, and thats not even everything, its far from it.
I have been to some big shows in CA, but the classic is definately the biggest and most amazing show I have been to by far!

awesome pics, I'd love to go to something like that.
its funny how even though the tyres on the hummer are probably 305's they look like skinnys because the rim is so big and tall it makes the tyre look
thin, even though its bloody fat!
some wild cars, hope I see some when I'm over there!

Thats basically the week that Stealth and I(and our lovely wives) have not long returned from. I had the best time, but man... flat out.
(And if I think it is who posted these pics, you guys went even harder in the first few days!!)
I would completely recommend this stuff to anyone. Well worth it. Forget the 13 hours(on a good day) flight one way.. Or the costs of it all... Just
do it.
I could post pics, but I think they would look similar! I might make an online photo album, and whoever wants to look can then.. I'll let you know
when it is up and going.

Yeah awesome.. wouldn't live there. Would and could happily live in LA, but Vegas was nice to visit.
How the hell does it work out to be 56 hours? Did he catch a friggen bus to Australia or something?!?!

haha, there is some "intereting" rides there too!
his flight from Boston was delayed, then something happened on the plane and it emergency landed between Boston and LA, so he missed his LA to Melb
flight... almost 24hr delay at LAX, then home....
they did send him in business class though.
I was too drunk by Nick's, maybe you have better pix of there than me!!

Man, I have some serious crap to sort through.. I will post some if/when they are sorted..
Business class would have rocked. Wouldn't have come close to making up for the 24 hours at LAX.. Melb Airport kicks LAX's ass..
