just too many inconsiderate, unaware people...

it's one of the reasons I only show my car maybe once a year... if that. I'm always a nervous wreck the whole time & feel like I have to stand guard 24/7... which gets boring. Because of that, I typically don't get to enjoy the rest of the show.

Of course, the other reason is that I didn't buy my car to show it. I bought it because I enjoy the car. I was not prepared for the amount of attention it generates when out on the road... it takes some getting used to.

... and then the cheapskate in me kicks in... why am I paying $40 (or whatever) for other people to come look at my car??? Shouldn't they be paying ME??? I could care less about getting it judged.

I guess that's why I just prefer the casual get-togethers.

I thought about hitting SuperCar Sunday, but did enough driving to/from Knott's on Saturday. That, and the fact that I am NOT a morning person. And I try not to irritate the neighbors with early morning warmups too often.

well... there's MY tyrade...
