I think this was the best at the show hopefully it did well great shot Bill I have been out of town for a few day so I’m trying to catch back up.
hey Larry, i was totally impressed by this machine, although very difficult to capture properly…I took about 8 shots of this car. It did not make the top 10 in awards though. Go figure…
