It's funny, because I had the SAME feeling...and figured out why. The
last couple of shows we ALL didn't give a flying #@^K what condition
our cars were in, we just wanted to hang out and bring the sciroccos en
masse. And we did. And we talked shop, and hung out and got sunburned
and talked some more shop. This year, some of us, including me
(innocently) decided to spruce up our "show" cars (which also happen to
double as daily drivers), and in the process, got stressed out and
missed the point of the scirocco gathering this year. At least that's
how I felt...I was up until 3am Friday AND Saturday changing CV joints,
suspension, alignment, getting newly painted bumpers and grill from the
shop...ended up missing guido's (running errands for my sis' graduation
and picking up parts). The only time I felt "at home" was *after* the
show, hanging out with ruben, randy, the teulies, dirk and tina, yarrow
and georgy (sp?...the guy from TEXAS with the p-51 mustang teeth on the
front spoiler) and Tobias. Even after that, randy, ruben, tobias and I
hung out in the parking lot for at least an hour after everyone said
their goodbyes, and then drove to a bar and shot the shit until almost
11pm that night!

I plan on bringing back the yellow DADADA car next year, but if it
ain't done a month before the show, it's staying home, and I'm bringing
a beater (and I may not even stress out washing it!)

Till next year, my friends.
