Hows it going? Someone must have a smartphone to post info or pictures. How about race results? |

Let's race!
|
I saw a few guys taking pictures but there was a lot of activity throughout the show and maybe nobody had time to post. |

Pictures will start appearing tomorrow guys. Folks here are still partying, drinking etc. I ended up winning the downhill truck and van class. Picked up a lot of new metal for the collection. It has been great to see everyone again. Look for moe soon! |

I just got back here to the house at 2:30AM. Now 3:30AM and I've got to be up by 7:00 to get back down there. No pics tonight. ![]() But only because I left my camera at the show.

I only took about a dozen pictures at the CARnival. I took a few pics at the dinner. Attendance was down, but the fun wasn't. |

I think I had the most fun I've ever had at any of the various diecast shows at CARnival this year. We were missing some familiar faces, but we had quite a few new friends show up, there was no lull in the action, and fun was had. I even won my first ET race ever (I've been going to various shows since 2004- this is the first trophy I've taken home for racing at any of them!). Yes I've won heat races before. I've won brackets and Pink Slip Racers at another event, but I've never had the chance to win a class outright before and it made my day! So maybe I'm a little biased by that, but hey, it's a day later and I'm still stoked! I'm also ashamed to say I barely got any pics. I was so busy having fun I forgot to get some this year.

I thought it was a good time, seemed to be plenty to do and always nice getting together with everybody for the BS sessions.. Sorry I don't usually take pictures at any type of functions I'm involved with, but since I ended up bringing home a box of new stuff for the collection, I'll being sharing those as times permits.. Still recovering from the Karaoke session.. |

I'm sorry I missed that- had I known the reason everyone was going to the bar was to do karaoke I'd have definitely gone along. |

Something to ponder about Attendance.. I was just reading on another board about a prominent members wife being assaulted outside her room at the HW Cincinnati Convention.. Fortunately she's O.K., but sometimes bigger isn't better.. |
