Show
& Cruising Season is just around the corner......
Maybe
it doesn't seem like it now with temperatures hitting -25
degrees wind chill and 3 feet of snow in some of our yards
in Western NY, but the events that mark the beginning of the
season are fast upon us.
The Buffalo Auto Show begins tomorrow,
and the rest of the indoor shows are short to follow. Let
us all hope this year will be even better then years gone
by. Speaking of years gone by, if you have digital photos
of auto events from past years you can now use our new Upload
Photos feature (described below) to share them with us all.

Preparations
for this July are already in full swing. In the next few
days we plan on finalizing the revised classes list for 2007,
online
pre-registation with Pay Pal on RodandPiston.com will be available
shortly after.
In
an earnest
effort to make this year's Super Cruise even bigger and better
we are offering special pricing to flea market / auto swap
meet vendors. The first 20 swap meet vendors to register
will pay absolutely nothing! That's right FREE.
We also drastically slashed the price for the rest of
the swap meet vendors that register. If you want to get in
on this great deal remember it is first come, first serve
on the free spots.
Time
to become a sponsor is quickly running out as we near
time to send our fliers to press. Don't let your business
miss out on this great promotional opportunity. If you
are interested in sponsorship, please download and complete
our Super
Cruise Sponsor Form available In Adobe PDF or
Microsoft Word format.
