Still a darned sight better than arriving in a Pontiac, though, eh? "

i'm pretty sure i would have enjoyed the ride more in the 400hp pontiac convertible as opposed to my diesel-guzzling, sweatbox of a rollback truck, but i had a guy holding a car for me for a couple months over in jersey and today was the day.
still, that's some tough talk from a guy that has a corolla and a mid-nineties A-body GM product in his signature

Thanks to everyone who attended today!! Everything worked out better than I could have hoped for. Perfect weather, amazing cars, and great people. I'm already looking forward to the 7th Benzfest.
![]() I think we had the best turnout so far. This year we had to use the back yard for 7 or 8 cars. All the cars fit beautifully and we still had more room. Next year, I'll stake out the back yard to make parking flow better and fit more cars.I'm looking forward to seeing any pics that were taken. I didn't get a chance to take any myself. Again, thanks to everyone for the effort you made in getting here and making today a memorable event.

Yes. Thanks very much to Chad and Raquel for being so generous and hosting an event like this.
Always great to meet new people and see some terrific cars. I love to be able to drive other vehicles and get a sense of what is wrong with my own. |

Chad, thanks to you and family for hosting (and working!) to put on a great event. Food and beverages were wonderful, people were great, as was the diversity of the vehicles. Do need a favor...can you put me in touch with the provider of the German pretzels? We have not been able to find them in support of our own gathering (Octoberfest). Wife has found some that say they are correct on the web but those you had are spot on. Thanks!

Hey Chad! Another great get together. Next year I will get there earlier and stay longer. Me and the wife were a little tired from the night before and then we had 2 more places to go after we left your spot. As always my friend...take care and we'll be in touch!!!
Oh this is a photo on Friday night before we went to the Chris Tucker show at the Revel, Atlantic City.

Chad,
Thanks to you and Rachel for allowing us to park all over your lawn, eat your food, drink your beer, bend your ear, looks at cars and have a great time. Got to meet some new faces and catch up with others. Now if I could only remember peoples names on the forum ![]() Each year the GTG continues to get better and so do the prizes. Fantastic job! Thanks for hosting all of us. |
