Nacho Z Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 I am thinking of going to this show. It will be my first time attending. Is there anyone from the club that could answer a question about one of the rules on the flyer?
JTalmage Posted October 14, 2015 Posted October 14, 2015 Im also considering this one as one of the last ones I do this year.
Nacho Z Posted October 14, 2015 Posted October 14, 2015 Sure, John. What can we help you with?Hi Curt and thanks for the response! I sent you a PM with a link. Please let me know if it did not work.
Ramfins59 Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 There is a strong chance that I'll be going to this show for the first time.
Nacho Z Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Sure, John. What can we help you with?Thanks for the answer to my first question, Curt. I do have another question. Is there any way to get the entry form(s) so they can be filled out ahead of time? I have not been able to find them. TIA.
Nacho Z Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Mark, click on the link in the first post. It takes you to the show flyer.
Nacho Z Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 I am in Fairborn, OH. Due to the length of the drive, my wife and I drove up tonight. I can sleep in tomorrow and still be at the show when the doors open. It is my first time attending and I am looking forward to it!
Craig Irwin Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Nice show, small swap meet but over 300 models were entered in the show, plus the club members display only models. Build quality was high.
Nacho Z Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Let me give a big "Thank You" to the C.A.R.B.S. members for putting on the show today. It was their 26th annual show and their largest one yet! They told us there were 339 models this year. It was my first time attending and I was fortunate enough to have a few models place, including a class win and Best of Show! I got to meet up with some modeling buddies and was able to meet some great builders. All-in-all, it was a great day.
Ramfins59 Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Hey John...... Congratulations on your awards. I'm sorry I couldn't make it to the show...... Maybe next year.
Curt Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Glad you enjoyed yourself, John. We worked hard to put on a good show and we're grateful for the positive feedback. It was good to meet you and a bunch of other fellow modelers. Rich, so sorry you couldn't make it - l'm a big fan of your work. Next year would be great if you can do it.
Ramfins59 Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Thanks Curt, I'll do my best to try to make it next year.
JTalmage Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 That was a good show. Tough competition too. Swap was nice, but cramped.... and warm.
thatz4u Posted November 2, 2015 Author Posted November 2, 2015 great stuff to be found there, here's some of the stuff I got...post 14 or 15...http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/66689-what-did-you-get-today/?page=587
Craig Irwin Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 The show area was so cramped the kept asking us to stay out so the builders could set them out to show, so I didn't get to see them all. Any one have photos?
Nacho Z Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Sorry, Craig, I don't have any pictures. It was very cramped in the display area. That is a good problem for the club to have. I was happy to hear that it was their largest show to date. I wonder if they could move the contest display area down to where the round tables sat? Again, good problem to have, a show still growing after 26 years! I wish the best to the members of C.A.R.B.S. for next year's show.
