    Was speaking with the director of this the other day, he is a very switched on guy that has big aspirations for this show. He has managed to secure some really nice cars from O/S and is still working on a couple of other surprises, from what was explained to me this is going to be heaven for OHOS lovers.

    I met him over in Monterey and to be honest I have quite a few concerns. I really want this event to be successful.

    I had quite a detailed meeting with him Tristan and from what I heard I think he has put together something that can be built on and become quite successful, there were a couple of small issues that did'nt grab me but I don't think that would discourage people at this point. Peoples opinions on these things are always different from all angles and to a degree it's a suck it and see situation for the first one, the cost of putting this on is enormous and as I was told if they get a break even result it gives them something to build on, this is where you have to remember that the event must attract the general public and not just car enthusiasts. I think if he can keep it running for 3 years we will have a world class show here. I have to say that for year one they have attracted a good spread of vehicles.

    lets hope the judges judge the cars on correct detail as opposed to over restored "Raffled" American standards.

    unfortunately i'm not sure if that will be the case.
    I was shocked to hear my friend has been invited to be a judge (and has accepted) ...his only car is a Fiero based 308 replica !!
