Vermont Scirocco Show is done! <sorta long>

["Jason Arms" <redbug64@hotmail.com>]

List,

Whell the local Vermont VW show has come to an end.  Josh Able was the only 
lister that came up for the show, excluding me and Justin Morse, the only 
vermont listers i believe.  The weekend basically sucked ass for me, and 
probably when Josh gets home, you will hear some crazy tails from him too :( 
  It basiclly was waterfest revisited weather wise.  It didn't start to get 
nice out untill everyone was leaving the show.  On saturday night, i went in 
my rocco (that is in dire need of a new master cylender and front wheel 
bearings) to go meet him to escort him to my house.  On my short trip to go 
get Josh, (i will let him tell ya about the hotell escipade)  i get about 7 
seperate instances where my oil pressure idiot light blinked and made that 
horrible buzz noise.  When we got home, i  checked my  oil level, and it was 
ok.  I figured that maybee it could be a freak thing.
  Saturday night, we pulled my car, then Josh's, then my frinds JEtta GLX, 
then my sister Sara's rocco into the garage and vaccumed them all out.  Then 
we pooled our money together and my alcoholic of a sister made my cousin 
take her out ot buy some beer.  We hung out in the garage untill about 1am.  
Then we decided to go to bed, cause Josh wanted to wake up at 6:30am!  
Apperently hee needs a little longer to wash his car than the rest of us ;)
  We struck out for the show at about 9:15 in the morning on sunday ( in the 
rain)  I rode with Josh, cause my rocco didn't feel like taking me to the 
show.  We get there and everyone in our caravan (7 cars) parked and started 
to shine up their cars.  For the first few hours, Josh's car is the center 
of attention, all us vt hicks thought it was pretty impressive! ;)  This is 
a nice  cold, wet and windy day.  Josh descovers that he has no "do do dee" 
relay when he opens his doors, so we find one in a bin of parts for a dollar 
and put it in.
  Finally the judges come around to the watercooled class.  Now because this 
show is run by air cooled guies, the judging sheets were for air cooled 
cars.  Josh  got points deducted because he was lacking a spare tire and 
jack setup (because of his stereo system)........wtf is up with that crap?  
Anywhoo, Josh left sorta frustrated, and i don't blame him.  I think im 
gonna write a letter or email to the people who run the show, and request 
that a seperate judging sheet be made up for watercooled to make things a 
little more fair.  There was also a rocco there that made all of us sick to 
our stomacs.  It basiclly showed that somtimes you should think twice before 
you dump your girlfriend.  This was at one point a pretty decient rocco, 
untill the guys ex drove her jeep into the front of it, jumped on the roof 
and pried the sunroof up, then smashed out the window and ripped the 
interior to shreds stealing a bunch of stuff.  DOH!
  Anywhoo, overall the watercooled scene at the show this year was hoppin!  
There was the most that there has ever been.  I took some pics, and will get 
em scanned in if i have some time.  Oh whell, maybee next year will be 
better weather and fair judging.  I know that Josh proabaly won't be back 
up, hehe, but maybee next year we can get some more listers in the show.  
Hopefully i will be able to get my rocco back into shape early next spring 
so i won't miss any events.  Untill then i will hope and pray that my 16v 
jetta winter car doesn't shit the bed on me!  Have fun everyone.
