Tom, no way it could have been better to be there! I would have liked it to be less than 90 outside, but with the wind chill it felt like 85.
The banquet was a great show of fellowship, getting to hang out with folks that you would otherwise only know by screen name.
The expansion of the exhibition hall was a big plus, as was the air conditioning.
After looking forward for a year for this show, I now have to start the count down for next year.
Come on, SCR XI!

My hat is off to Tom, Rob, Mo and everyone else who make this event happen including everyone who brought their cars.

It was a fantastic weekend and I am honored to be able to be a part of it.

Like TC said, there was indeed a "special feeling" in the air. There were way too many highlights to list, (see photos) so all I will say is, if you haven't made it a priority to make it to an SCR, I can not emphasize how much you should.

SCR11...PLAN NOW and Don't Miss It!

And for anyone wondering...YES, KASEY REALLY IS A BIT, um....DIFFERANT! 0-:

I agree Bob, and I also would like to ad that you don't need a supercar to have a blast at a Supercar Reunion... I've only had a car at 2 of 10 and honestly have had a terrific time each and every year. I've always said that if we all just showed up in rental cars and a change of clothes we could all still have a great weekend just hanging out with each other and swapping stories. All the awesome cars at the reunion are great, but its the PEOPLE who really make the show such a super event. If you weren't there this year, don't miss it next year.. (or we'll all talk about you behind your back. )

FIrst I would like to thank the Clary family for the hard work in once again hosting the SCR. I was very proud to be one of the lucky few that were recognized with a "Decade Award" for attending all ten SCR. That was a real surprise and, it still amazes me that the time flys so fast. I cannot even imagine a year not attending. This is the ONLY show we work the calander around. All of the hard work that the guys at the Super Car Workshop and friends, like Frank, Franny, Keith, George, Bernie and others get great joy in showing off the latest restorations. I cannot think af a better venue.

I have to say that there were quite a few great memories that will be taken away with this SCR, but by far meeting Mel Bogus and his son Bart was a highlight. Mel spoke from the heart and it showed at the banquet. Reuniting him with "his" Yenko Camaro was very special to me and many others. Thank you Mel for being there. And a close second was meeting Roberto from Mexico City. Flying to Chicago and then driving to the SCR was a true testiment to his dedication to the hobby. And to get to see his 67 DANA Camaro was amazing as well.

I would also like to give a big thank you to the media guys that covered the event. The legendary Bob McLurg and one of my old friends Tom Shaw both covering the event was very special. And I would also like to extend a thanks to Dave Newhart for the work he does. His books are true works of art, and I look forward to seeing some SCW cars in print. That is the finishing touch on the restorations, having guys like you want to put the cars in print. Makes the long days and night worth it.

And as always its great to see old friend and their cars. If you have a car, or not, its really not important, its the community of the hobby. Friends enjoying the cars, the stories and the latest finds. Having a beer and enjoying a laugh. Thats why the reunion is such a great success. Its not a mass produced show, its a family. Its fitting the show is called the Super Car REUNION and not just another show. Here's to SCR XI...BKH

Here are two examples of the dedication of the SCW gang

The excitement builds all year to see what's new and what's been happening with everyone. Then, when it's over, rather than be sad, we start planning for next year.
It IS about the people; it IS a reunion, and we ARE like family!

Don't mess with ONE of us unless you wanna take on ALL of us!

to everyone.

Let me add to what Brian said above. For those of you who couldn't attend, there were eight people called to the stage on Friday Night for the Decade Awards. Those named and present were:

Brian Henderson
Joe Swezey
Joe Barr
Erik Barr
Fran Roberts
Mark Hassett
Rayburn Pennington
Mark Kickel


and of course, Mr. Tom Clary.

Not sure about Rob, but please let me know and we'll make sure the appropriate certificates are delivered.

Congratulations gentlemen.
