Anyone here happen to be going to the Cleveland Auto Show? I think its the 5th largest in the nation and is in its 100th year.

I'd love to, but with hoop tournaments going on right now, I'm traveling all over the place covering games.

I was there last night. I assumed you weren't there because I didn't see any crapwagon.com stickers on any of the Toyotas or Hondas. ;)

I thought last night was invite only?

BTW were there any IRL sleds there that I could, um, decorate?

I have mixed thoughts about the auto show. I used to work the CART display and had a blast, but otherwise I wonder if it is worth the cash.

Last night was dealer appreciation night. I guess no dealers appreciate you very much. ;)

No IRL cars, 1 ChampCar (Herdez Lola from about 99 or 00 with Dominguez and Moreno name on it) in the Ford section, a bunch of stock cars, and a Star Mazda. And, thanks to my brother and his hoodlum friends, there are probably 5 different display cars missing their license plates. :laugh:

Taking a couple of license plates off of display cars? I mean, its not like I condone what he did or anything, but I don't think its that big of a deal that he took a display license plate off a show car.

Oh yeah, back to the original subject. Apparently Tagliani and Manning are going to be at the Ford booth from 6-8 PM on Wednesday night.

Theft is theft, be it a Twinkie from the 7-11 or a bag of money from a Brinks truck.

Hum.

I had halfway thought about going on Wensday and bringing some CART stuff and having Kurt Busch sign it since he will be there, and while doing it get in a plug for him running a CART event this year.

The TV ad does not mention Busch but the press release and schedule do.

Busch was added to the radio and print ads this week - I guess they didnt get confirmation of his appearance until too late.

The CART Boys will be at the Race/Volunteers Booth near the food court.

Hey Rabbit, you going to the Media Lunch?
