Pics From Bandit Run 2009
« on: May 10, 2009, 09:13:51 PM »
Well folks, I made it down to Branson, even though, due to economic and mechanical circumstances, I wasn't able to take my car. There weren't many cars there when I was there, and I was unable to stay as long as I wanted to due to the fact that the missus decided her lunch didn't set well with her, but I was able to get some pictures of the HOT HOT iron that was there. I just wish I could have taken my car, and gone on the run























As I said, when I went to the show (the run itself is tomorrow) there weren't that many cars out because we got there early, and the weather was rainy-ish, and it was mothers day, so................

But the rides that WERE there were AWESOME...........

Wish I could have gone :(

Thanks for sharing the pictures.  Looks like a great time.  Thanks for giving us our first look regarding the Bandit Run 2009.  I sure hope it went well.



They're covying up in Branson tonight and taking off on the first leg of the run tomorrow. As I said before, I can't go on the run itself, but I sure wish I could have :(

Here is a link to photobucket.  I put about 18 pics of the first leg of the Bandit Run on there.  Pretty fun time,  the weather held while I was there.  I drove up to Branson this morning in the rain though.   There were some beautiful cars!!!  The Snowman's truck was a HOMERUN :o :o   Too bad I could not go the whole way.

You mean the car that had the rear window shattered from the sun last year at T/A Nats? I remember seeing that car and wasn't sure if that was the same car.

I hope to go on the run next year, hopefully have a job by then and maybe get back to semi-normal living. Good luck to all who are on the run!

He is talking about the Snowman's big rig.  It is posted in the photo bucket link.
