(Words and\u00a0photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>This show took place May 7, 2017 in Greendale, IN which is nearly indistinguishable from Lawrenceburg as you drive down the road.\u00a0 This area is teaming with automotive stuff which includes Lawrenceburg Speedway (one of the nicest dirt tracks I\u2019ve ever been to), Edgewater Motorsports Park (drag strip), and Gravelrama (the latter two are in Cleves, OH ).\u00a0 Having an event around here guarantees a lot of different kinds of cars and genres.\u00a0 Muscle cars are big and we were not disappointed with the offerings.\u00a0 We spent a lot of time hovering over a burgundy \u201964 R-code Galaxie 500.\u00a0 This thing was spotless and was sporting upgrades in certain areas including a wide set of drag radials.\u00a0 I\u2019d really like to hear this one at full throttle.\u00a0 Another was a seemingly \u2018tame\u2019 Orange GTO with the Ram Air IV 400 and a stick.\u00a0 It can run 11s on stickies and mid 12s on skinny, stock-looking hoops.\u00a0 Not a tame tiger.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve \u00a0got to see Brad Eglian\u2019s Lumina at the Autorama in Cincinnati a few times before, but haven\u2019t seen it outside in daylight.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t know who that is then you likely don\u2019t watch Street Outlaws (which is okay\u2026I don\u2019t anymore).\u00a0 B-rad has been on the show some and he\u2019s made a name for himself with grudge racing, no-prep, and more.\u00a0 He runs BES-built power so you know it\u2019s stout.\u00a0 The car is clean and some of us never get tired of the tube chassis cars from the 90s.\u00a0 Quirky and cool.<\/p>\n

I have a soft spot for \u201970 Mustang fastbacks and the blue Mach 1 we spotted sitting all by itself was checking all the right boxes on my list.\u00a0 It looks like a work-in-progress and is a driver.\u00a0 What more could you want\u2026.\u00a0\u00a0 Nice, but not so nice you cry after it suffers a rock chip.<\/p>\n

Lastly there was a Rolls Royce that had appeared in many films and television shows.\u00a0 It has some wear, but had lots of documentation proving all it had done.\u00a0 Not something you would normally expect to see and that is partly what makes it great.<\/p>\n

More coverage to come.<\/p>\n
