(Words and photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>More muscle in here and more tips on attending the Street Rod Nationals.\u00a0 The nameplate \u2018muscle car\u2019 has many interpretations depending on who you are and when you grew up.\u00a0 There are those that choose to put the Camaro and Musting in the \u2018pony car\u2019 distinction, but in truth they are really a muscle car.\u00a0 Some place the Corvette in the sports car realm, but the purists in that arena will tell you if it came with an attached roof then its not a sports car.\u00a0 Me, I\u2019m thinking 2 seats\u2026.sports car.\u00a0 Anyway, since they came with a rumbling V8 for the majority of their existence I call them a muscle car.\u00a0 Even a Shelby Cobra can fit into this genre.<\/p>\n

On visiting the Street Rod Nationals you should remember it will be hot and generally humid\/Sunny.\u00a0 Bring an ice chest with plenty of water.\u00a0 There are plenty of water fountains and restrooms in the AIR-CONDITIONED main buildings.\u00a0 Take breaks and go inside to enjoy all the vendor displays, workshops, and builder\u2019s showcase cars.\u00a0 There are a LOT of choices for food on-site, but not a lot of places to sit and eat.\u00a0 If you are going to be buying things bring a small car or wagon to haul stuff.\u00a0 You can also use this to carry a small cooler so you can stay hydrated.\u00a0 I used to pull one to haul my kids around because riding piggy-back or on my shoulders would get old REAL fast.\u00a0 One of the best ways to see cars is to sit in the shade near one of the main intersections and watch as folks come and go.\u00a0 Many just move their cars from place to place as they gawk at cars themselves.\u00a0 The blown, black pro street 2nd<\/sup>-gen Camaro will eventually make a lap bringing its symphony of sound with it.\u00a0 If you\u2019ve been you know what I mean.<\/p>\n

Enjoy.<\/p>\n
