It was standing room only for about a mile in the streets of Henderson. Thousands of spectators flooded the town to the point that you could not see the hundreds of cars on display. There were two stages with live bands (complete with the horn sections) and one large DJ trailer and all were playing that Carolina beach shag music. The show focused on historic drag cars, drivers, and personalities. Added to that were hundreds of show cars from all over the region. Mrs. Nancy Wilson is the producer/director for the annual event. Officials seal off the main drag thru town (Garnett St.) for the festivities. Covering the event was the crew from SPEED-HD TV's "My Classic Car" with host Dennis Gage. Later on in the evening, after the crowds died down, something was brewing. Dennis and Nancy were preparing to do a lead-in interview for the story, and they wanted a car for the back drop. Guess who's car they picked..... They got in the car and mic'd up for sound, even switched seats half way thru.....So we will have a cameo in an upcomming episode that is to air around Feb 2011 according to the crew. Wow!
