what is your daily driver??

That's something I never understood about the "car show" people. You take your car from it's garage, to it's enclosed trailer, to the grassy car show field, sit in your lawn chair and snarl at everyone who gets within 5 feet of it, back to the enclosed trailer, back to the garage. How is that enjoying your car :dunno:

I always had it in my head that if I ever won the lotto I would head out to Barret/Jackson and buy some awesome/rare 80-100k musclecar and enjoy the look on peoples faces as I laid mega slab out of the parking lot and cross country road trip that bitch back to New England.


You should check out the Collings Foundation.

They have a couple shows a year. They have a grass airstrip and will race the cars up and down the field. The last couple times I've been there they have even raced a Stutz Bearcat.
 
Mine was my 86 M1009 but I just sold it last week. I drove it 50+ miles a day for work for the last 3 years. We bought my mom's old chevy equinox (she passed away 2 months after my dad bought it) so my wife drives that and I took my wife's 2010 Kia Forte. Went from 18mpg in the m1009 to 32mpg in the kia.

On the topic of car shows, The Iron Invasion in Woodstock IL is my favorite. Here's the trailer for last years show:

As you can see, they have a "do it yourself" stunt show where anybody is invited to bring their ride into the dirt field and do some donuts, 180s, whatever you want. Here's a vid showing some more of the stunt show (skip to 2:30)
