The parking, everyone who's shopping the parts section, ***** mine g'damn it! Jk

All the prick cops who attend spring and fall fling who love to bring their ticket books and hang by their late yr slopars near the red curb just waiting for you to take a little too long to load up and slip one right under your wiper blade. You who do that...arent mopars guys and habmve no business even attending, scummy yellow turds.

I love General Lee's , need more of those
 
Plastic model of car on air cleaner or dash. A stuffed F'ing animal on the seat or even worse, a coyote under a tire and cheep hot dogs!

Or the guy or gal that says "I had one just like it,but it was different."
 
I parked next to a guy with a big block chevelle SS. Pristine car right down to the last bolt. I opened my hood and he said “that could be a really nice car if it weren’t for the rusty headers”. I asked him how much money he had in his car. When he told me I just laughed and walked away. He had 3 times what I’ve got in mine and folks seem to like mine much more. I’m ok with that.

The guys who have bad *** cars at home but won't bring them out because they're scared.

I'm talking Superbirds, 6pk Bees, Hemi cars, and cool unrestored oddball stuff.

Here's an unrestored, original owner 4spd 70 Roadrunner, Air Grabber, hood-stripe delete vert. Export car, too, since it was ordered from the PX.

First time at a show....ever!!!

Thanked the owner profusely, for making my day, but I know of other stuff that never will get seen while the owner is still breathing.

I don't fault owners of rare iron that don't want to bring it out...the car scene today has plenty of low lifes that will seek out valuable cars at shows and either try to steal it at the hotel or do an online search for the owners address and do it later. Happens all the time at big race events.

I don't hate the owners at all, just the situation.

...oh, and the flashy lights thing...but that IS funny at least.
 
Wow...i don't go to shows but i attend a couple of cruz nights regularly where i know most everybody.
It's a nice drive,a couple hours with friends and a nice drive home.
 
I hang out at race tracks mostly now. Still get to see some amazing cars and most guys are too worried about racing to worry about someone else.

I stopped going to the race track because I used to run either my dad's cuda or a track Duster I used to have and they were lining up muscle cars with those tuner piles. I understand that tuners are fast and blah blah, but they will never be the same and I feel a tuner should race a tuner and a muscle should race a muscle. Problem is after awhile, all the muscle started disappearing and now I doubt you will find any kind of car over 30 years old.
 
Not a big fan of these. Just my opinion.

My biggest pet peeve is the blaring music. I enjoy talking, not screaming, with the owner about his/her car. The car's owner is what makes the car special. I enjoy rare, factory original, numbers matching cars. I enjoy clones and/or tributes (as long as they're not passed off as "real cars"). I admire the guys/gals who can "do it all". The bottom line is, I respect people and their visions/dreams.
 
I will say, for the most part, The all Mopar shows are pretty good. The judged shows can suck especially if it's peoples choice. I have a sore azz about a guy in town that has a Swinger like mine. He and his mullet attracts many goat roper friends. He usually out places me because of all the votes. I come with 10 Mopar guys and they can't all vote for me. The guys paint is shiny and he has Cragars but he didn't jam the car when he painted it and it has 4 layers of crustys everywhere. He also spray bombed his engine without masking off anything. Over-spray everywhere.
