The Rupp 800 Magnum did for me as well. When you drove a Rupp Snowmobile, The 800 Magnum was the ZL-1 Corvette of Snowmobiles, especially if you were driving a 1970 340 Rupp with a one lunger Sacks and you were 14 years old! Great Memories for me as well. What a Show. Bill

Still a great weekend, and the first car event I've been to in a long while.

As was explained to me by Steve, the cars were spread out further to meet covid guidelines, so it felt less populated. I do agree that there didn't seem to be as many spectators as in the past, but covid is still around and there are restrictions, so some people elected to stay away.

I can't say I ever noticed the snowmobiles... I had a couple in my younger years, but I am averse to being cold, so that desire didn't last long.

I did walk by the motorcycles, but didn't see anything to really pull me in.
Maybe I should bring my 2000 Springer with 13,000 miles next year for the original owner display..

They were great and handled it perfectly, were on time and were very friendly. Our ride home in Jim's Mustang did not go near as well but thanks to a GREAT friend who off loaded his 1969 show vette from his trailer, loaded the Mustang and then drove the Vette 170 miles to our place was unbelievable. You cannot buy that kind of friendship.

I only have two suggestions for next year. The singing of our National Anthem was done perfectly by the two gentlemen who sang it. If it was there, I and several others some how missed it. I think we should fly our flag near the wall by the entrance while we sing the song. Just as importantly, I think we should fly the Canadian flag and sing their anthem as well as there were MANY Canadians there and it would have been great to honor them and their country as well. Just a thought and opinion. Great show!

Here....here....I second that Rick.....eh! A BIG thanks to you and all on this site who do make the effort to include us folks "from the north" and make us feel welcomed.

We may be a small contingency, but we have some kick ass cars.

Paul
