After running the first one and having a horrible day, it was nice to actually enjoy this awesome meet. Never trust weather people, EVER. The rain was "suppose to" stop by 12pm, around the time a lot of the caravans of cars would arrive. Nah, it just rained harder. I'm glad it rained. For one, I am more in love with my camera than ever, and two, the shots of rain drops on the cars made for nice captures. Sure, hanging out of a car going 70mph was wet and painful, but the shots are sweet.
I was amazed when out caravan arrived. The Sonic parking lot, along with the adjacent lot was full. The Walmart lot was filling up quickly too. There are numbers being thrown out about how many people actually showed up. Most were estimates of 400-500 cars. I have no idea. I wish I had motivated myself earlier to take shots sooner. I missed so much, along with cars I wanted to get shots of. Eh, theres always next year. Wonder who is gonna run it? The first one was enough for me haha.
