What a great year. New huge facility, tons fo cars and midway. Over the top. IF you don't want to walk it all just rent a golf cart grab a giant beer and cruise the cars staged outside.
Here are a few pics.
Tents that hold the cars to be auctioned

My brother is showing there outside the main tent with his company, OPM Customs. Should be a sick Black First Gen Camaro out there on display with an audio system from hell. In fact, he bought one of the systems I was going to put in the Revolution before we switched to Zapco. Rumour has it that after lighting it off, the subs blew the trunk open.
Take some pics if anyone sees the booth for me.

We moved from San Diego and it is'nt as bad, not even close. But right now you have 3 major car auctions going on. 2 major fine art events and the TPC Golf event all in the same 10 square miles!
Cave Creek and Carefree are awesome and I don't look back from moving from both LHC and San Diego although all my friends and ex-coworkers are back there.
