It comes with >everything to make you laugh, feel good and even make >a little extra cash. The organizer, we will just call >him "Felix" is always good for a few laughs. And this >year, he did not disappoint. First thing we noticed >when we arrived at the show was this...... ><center> ><img border="4" >src="http://www.texasdragracing.com/events/2011/12.4_Bu >nton/12-4/images/IMG_0023.jpg"> ></center> >This is the box where we were to put our toy's. This >box was for the "Grils"...lol. You know, I don't >really know if this show is really to benefit the >Toy's for Tot's program. I mean, the boxes are not >official. And the guy was asking for "cash" >donations"...lol. Oh well, that is just my opinion. I >really do hope that the toy's that were donated do >really go to a good cause. And if not, well, they are >still toy's and I am sure they will still go to needy >kids. And that is all that matters. > >We really did not have a bunch of stuff to sell. But >we did manage to gather up a few extra car parts that >were just sitting in our shed, gathering dust. We had >some cool stuff, like 3" Flowmaster mufflers (didn't >sell) we also have a tilt-steering column for a >G-Body. Also very hard to come by. This one came out >of a 442 that my buddy Johnny was parting out. That >also did not sell. What is funny is that even some >parts we were giving away for FREE, did not >sell...lol. I had one gentleman ask me for the price >on an air-cleaner assembly. He asked, "how much?"...I >said...FREE...he put it down and walked away...lol. We >did manage to get rid of some stuff. Like a 1" >aluminum spacer for only $5.00...some Derby Rally >caps, also let them go for $5.00....And we gave away a >bunch of car magazines. I often see people selling old >magazines. And I have never understood that. > >What was our biggest seller? Rock CD's...yeah, a bunch >of Rock CD's. I took my entire collection of Rock CD's >with me to sell. I was only asking $1.00 for them. And >$2.00 for the two-disc sets. I had everything you >could think off. 3 big shoe boxes full of CD's. I sold >a hair-band CD right away. Along with some Pearl Jam >and Nirvana CD's. Then one gentleman who took his time >looking, pulling out CD after CD, just looked at me >and said..."How much for all of them?" seems he could >not make his mind up. I mean, we are talking Kiss, >Pink Floyd, every Metallica CD, Iron Maiden, Korn, >Nickelback, Seether, The Who, AC-DC, Led Zepplin, you >name it. So, I let go of all of them for $60.00....did >I lose out? Yeah, I mean, what are CD's now a day's, >$10.00 or $12.00 each? And yeah, each one held a >special memory. But, they have now been passed on. And >I hope they bring this person as much joy as they >brought me. And don't worry, all the CD's are backed >up to hard-drives, jump-drives and iPods. They aren't >really going anywhere...lol. > >It has been a wonderful weekend. We hit every goal we >ment to hit. The only thing we didn't get to do was >race the wagon. But, that gives us a little time to >work on it and maybe install that nitrous system I >have been meaning to install. Maybe we can go and run >a 10 second pass before 2011 is up. Now that would be >cool.
