Russ or Mike, you guys just do the "Pontiacs on Parade" or the judged car show?  Looks to be different if I read the website right.

yeah i know. the reason i'll have to wait until time gets closer, is the weekend before Pontiac Nationals i will be at Mid Ohio Raceway for "Vintage Motorcycle Days" for the weekend, with the motorcycle club i belong to ! it's an anual event for us local guys, & this year we have members from oversea's planning on attending. as a higher ranking member of the club, i am expected to be there. i may be able to talk the wife into going to Pontiac Nationals too !
