Post Autotech Show

[trnsfrma@ix.netcom.com (Shawn C. Meze)]

Just in case somebody was interested in the Autotech show last 
saturday, heres my viewpoint. 

Overall, I thought there were much better looking cars in the show this 
year. (Not one primmered Rabbit! Cool!!)

The Potterman and Myseld both showed our Scirocco's and I was suprised 
in the interest that was shown both of our cars. (We parked right next 
to each other) Maybe there is a new resurgence of Scirocco interest? 
Maybe. 

The show winners.
Autotech did good this year compared to last year. Last year they had 
1st, 2nd, 3rd places overall. This year, they had 1st, 2nd, 3rd in the 
A1, A2, A3 classes! An interesting note on the A1 winners is that they 
were all Scirocco's! There were some very nice looking Rabbits there 
but I guess that the Scirocco's looked better in the judges eyes.
Third went to Ken Weidmann Jr's 85 Show Scirocco from the list. His 
girlfriend looked pretty bored sitting there on the curb behind the 
car. Congrats Ken!!
Second was a um... 78 (?) Scirocco. SWEET! yellow MK-I with Euro head 
lights and a full 16V conversion on NOS. Rear Reiger Spoiler (?) looks 
sweet on the Scirocco!
First was a 87 16V. White with some serious yellow racing stripes. 
Corrado head lights. I think its the only thing I didnt get a picture 
of. Hopefully, Autotech will have some pics of their own up on their 
page. The pics on their page now are from last year. The Yellow MK-I is 
on it.

Theres the address if anybody wants to see it. Me and my son are on the 
group photo. Bottom right in the blue shirt/ black hat is me. To my 
right is my son in a purple hat.

Anyways, it was very cool meeting Doug, Brad (again) Mike (the Lurker!) 
and finally, Benton! I hope to meet you guys again, especially Benton. 
He got there pretty late and we didnt have alot of time to chat before 
it was all over and I had to leave. Next time Benton will get up a few 
hours earlir maybe?? :-P

Anyways, I had alot of fun. I won a raffle prize again this year. (A 
sunroof wind deflector. Cool! But, I dont have a sunroof...) So I sold 
it to the guy next to me and I bought polly rear bushings and the 5th 
gear tool instead!
