I posted some pics at:

So many people were taking pictures of each car from every angle that I had to cut it down to group shots.

Thanks again for a great show. Any ideas to help us improve next years event? What did you like what can we improve on?

19 White xB 130db
22 Green xB 130db
27 Red xB 130db
25 Blue xB 133.9 db
36 Maroon xB 133.9 db
07 Red tC 135.0 db
12 Gray tC 136.1 db
35 red/white tC 137.0 db
02 Gray xB 137.1 db
01 Gray tC 138.2 db
24 Blue xB 138.4 db
23 White tC 141.1 db ~ Our Winner! Holy WOW!

I copied these for comparison purposes:
Train whistle at 500' 90dB
Subway train at 200' 95dB
Level at which sustained exposure may result in hearing loss 90 - 95dB
Power mower 107dB
Power saw 110dB
Pain begins 125dB
Pneumatic riveter at 4' 125dB
Jet engine at 100' 140dB
Death of hearing tissue 180dB
Loudest sound possible 194dB
