I will be there!! I paid to enter the wagon!! Great news! Look forward to seeing the royal longroof on the grounds.
You should fill it up with any builds you have ~ those that haven't won before ~ and bring them along!!
See you there!

Print as many as you need, complete them, and if you can scan (image) them, email them to me.

I ... am ... exhausted.
It was a SUPER show!
Fifteenth Southwest Nationals! We hit an all-time high (for us) ... 260 entries ~ almost as many as Desert Scale Classic.
A wide variety of builds ~ everything from factory stock to big rigs, rods, customs, a batmobile, dioramas, race cars, police cars, trucks, truck/trailer combinations, boats, monster trucks, post-apocalyptic street fighters, and a couple of fire engines! You name it ... it was on the table somewhere. We even had a hand-carved, solid wood, 1/6 scale Mack AG stakebed truck!
We had 1,139 people's choice ballots cast by spectators!
A 12-year-old (former Make-n-Take customer) won "Best Junior" with a nice '56 Chevy.
(There were 2800 1:1 entries outside.)
Had a great time ... including a sell-out for the Revell Make-n-Take.
Plenty of great help from my friends in the local clubs, Moonlight Modelers and Cactus Car Modelers, without whom it couldn't be done!!!
I'll try to load some pix tomorrow. Did I mention ... I'm ... exhausted!

Hey Danno, Glad to hear your show went so well.
Yeah, I have told the Good-guys staff a couple of times that the email they have is not good, but I'll keep on them.
Try this one - a56hotrod@gmail.com
Still trying to get the show built up more over here, it's going real slow though. Can't really figure out why.
Happy Thanksgiving as well my friend.
See you in -- oh, 5 months or so? Already planning..
