The Dog enjoyed meeting Sargent Matis (vdubbin) and family we hung out at the hotel slot car open house the night before and at the show the next day.....

The fall show is November 11 this year they usually stay with in a week or so but it's always on Sunday so the date changes i will post a reminder in the fall some tine 10 November is the Marine Corps birthday and Ball so I definitely won’t be making it on Saturday evening. Hopefully I won’t overindulge, uh, too much and be able to roll out of my rack on the 11th ( Veterans Day!!) and head up. Is it still by chance held in Matteson? |

The location has changed to ......
The Lincoln Center
2450 Lincoln St
Highland, IN
It's just across the IN border off I-80 very easy to find, stop by the Kdog Racing booth if you can make it we have a very cool group of guys in that area of the show including Graphs by Gary for decals, Bodys by Doug for cool resin bodys, Not sure if Sargent Mathis is coming but he was there this Spring with amazing paint jobs of a bunch of cars. The show is open at 10am till 3pm

I doubt if I’ll be able to make it. With having a Veteran’s Say Memorial service to participate in and not being able to leave here till at least Noon, it is a 2 hour drive and being I am in Illinois and an hour behind, I wouldn’t get there till closing time. I’ve always wondered why these shows were not geld on Saturdays!
