If you want to go to a show in the US then Spring Thing is favroit, held in Febuary, just after the Daytona 500 NASCAR race and the Daytona Bike week, in the Orlando/Clearwater area.

Book a flight and a hire car and go, no need to book motels. In 2002 M/Hotels were from $25 (£18ish) dollars a night, thats for a room with 2 x double beds, NOT PER PERSON.

unless you already have them on the net and just havn't shared the URL with us.


and yes, bigger is better here, but we lost it. We used to have cool ass Muscle cars, now we are stuck with these stupid SUV's. The only SUV's I respect are ones designed for the dirt. Land Rover Defender, Disco, Hummer 1 (not that freak show H2) and the Short wheel base Jeep wrangler. All other SUV's should go to hell.

However, Chrysler is pumping out some good stuff
with the new 350 (5.7 Liter) Hemi Magnum station wagon. Finally the station wagon is cool again.... not true since we lost the 57 Nomad. Chrysler also has the kickass new Hemi 350 powered 300.
I can't wait to see the crossfire with the Hemi. I hope it happens. When they drop that shitty mercedes benz 6 cylinder the Crossfire will seriously haul ass.

I have no idea how to post them on the net, but I have a mate who will do it.

That Hemi station wagon looks cool (saw the adds on TV in New york)

Why are there so many 4X4s especially Hummers in New York???

well i think the old hummers are in the New Yorkers style
when you have a hummer the "hey! I'm walkin' here" (with a NY Accent of course) doesn't hold up against the "Hey!, I'm drivin here"

and lots of yanks are rich. So why not?
