Re: Car Show Season
Did you buy a drone for aerial shots?
The best way to keep your Kia from being stolen is to not have a Kia.
Re: Car Show Season
Oh, heck no. I have a lot of crazy car show stuff, but I'm not that crazy.
I'd be afraid of crashing it into someone's $$$ car!
The people running the event brought it. You could hear it buzzing around overhead.
That thing takes a nice picture.
In case you're wondering, that's a go cart track. On the way out I took a hot lap... pretty fun.
Got another show tomorrow. This one should be a little bigger.
There are no really big shows these days. They all got canceled.
Note in that shot that I'm not too close to anyone. That's on purpose.
I sit behind the car, the showgoers are at the front or looking in the side window.
At the cruise in that's in the previous shots, I put on my mask because the parking was a bit tighter.

Re: Car Show Season
Hot one out there today.
This was one of the few moments where there was any breeze.

Re: Car Show Season
Another birthday cruise today!!
The cruise ins are about to come back with a vengeance... I think I have something like 24 on the schedule right now.
A lot of stuff that was postponed may end up back on the schedule as well. Or not.

Re: Car Show Season
It's cool that the car is getting out a little.

I think I've driven more this year than any of the previous 5 years.andyofcolumbusmerkur wrote: ↑Mon Jul 13, 2020 4:01 pm It's cool that the car is getting out a little.
Got a little test coming up on Saturday. We are going in a caravan to a car show at a bar called the Psycho Silo in Langley, IL.
It'll be about 100 miles round trip and it's going to be really hot.
A few years ago I wouldn't have tried it, but I'm confident that the car can handle the heat now.
Then a 2nd cruise in back in town. Gonna be out in it all day long, but I'll have a cooler full of Gatorade.
At least there's supposed to be a nice breeze this time.

Re: Car Show Season
Hell freezes over at the Psycho Silo!
They had actual judges (not participants) that knew what they were looking at.
