[@raymondblasee1048]

Tim! This was an AWESOME show! Thank you for sharing!!! There were a lot of spectacular top tier builds, I mean flat out outrageous beautiful creations even in the junior classes! You do really really fantastic model car contest coverages, thanks again!!!!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Thanks for watching, it was a great show!

[@TerryWilsonModels]

Great coverage Tim. What always shocks me when I see what’s on the table at this show is the amount of great paint work. It’s by far some of the best you’ll see at one show. Thanks for showing Tim.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

I agree Terry, the paint work on these builds is fantastic!!!!

[@frankcerne7613]

Some great models and talent on display 👍.. very awesome builds... Thanks for sharing Tim

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Thank you Frank, so glad you enjoyed! 🙂👍

[@HotrodzModelShop465]

Beautiful Builds, Thanks for sharing them Tim.👍👍

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So glad you enjoyed them! 👍🙂

[@bigbow62]

(6:55) This garage diorama is amazing ! Plus the front engine rail dragster is very cool. (7:55) This wicked 70's Pro/Stock racer is beautiful the whole package works ! [ Base colors detail ] The lighting in the building really make the colors pop ! So many great builds...my favorites for sure for are the old drag gassers & ramp or flat bed combo✌️😎

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Indeed they are! 👍🙂👍

[@trumpet3829]

Wow! Blimey! What a collection of fantastic builds on display. Most with incredible paint jobs. Such a joy to see and proof that this hobby is still as popular as it ever was. Thank you so much for sharing; it is people like you that keep the hobby alive and inspire us all. Good camera work too. I just wish I could have been there...maybe next year...

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Thank you so much for the kind words... Hope to see you there next year.

[@slougo5909]

Tim, AWESOME COVERAGE FELLA! Thank You Sir. Oh, I'd like to add, To me, that Mint Green Roadster with Plaid/Brown Leather interior, Was Best in Show

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Thanks! That green roadster was killer! 🕸🦇💀

[@glenfiorello3744]

I am humbled and speechless. What an honor to see my Green and Silver 55 Gasser. Special thanks to Tim from THROTLE POWER for taking a ton of pictures of my car in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Super thankful to Fred Henry for his attention to detail from the hand fabricated straight axle to the Corvette grill . the paint etc.Also thanks to my friend John Decker for sending me the video.

[@West_Georgia_Rods_Customs]

Doing this build to replicate Glen’s beautiful 55 Chevy was so much fun! Along with doing these builds as a “Build Off” with you was so much fun! It was equally awesome to display these hotrods side by side at this year’s ACME Southern NATS! Thanks to you Tim for getting me the photos needed to complete my build to the level equal of Glen’s amazing gasser!

[@TheLukaCeeChannel]

I never doubted you Fred. But seeing on my tv. MAN! You did an amazing job. Well done my friend.​@@West_Georgia_Rods_Customs

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So true.......... Fred knocked this build out of the park!!!!!!

[@busterscustoms]

Tim you are a busy man. I would have never gotten those builds you did on the table on time. Thanks for the great coverage. 👍

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

It was down to the last minute Kevin. I was actually thinking the 55 was not going to make it there. In fact, Saturday morning (3 hrs before I go into the show) at 5 am I turned on the coffee pot in the hotel room and put the final touches on the 55. ☕🙂👍

[@jerequallio9052]

There are so many nice models. My head is spinning. Thank you for the video, Tim! I wish I could've made it . Maybe next year.

The yellow/beige 55 with the heavy duty is perfect. Did you do that one? I hope this show motivates more builds. Great show.

I did the yellowish 55 that was sitting next to the (yours) silver and green 55 Glen. Hope it motivates more builds too.

The guy who owns the yellowish 55 in real life came to the show to see the build I did of his car. He's from that area where the model contest was. He was impressed and really liked it.

[@theragingdolphinsmaniac4696]

It used to be that you'd get 5 or 7 excellent models of this caliber that really stood out at any given show. Now there are dozens, and what used to be special is pretty average quality now. Our hobby has come a long way. My biggest complaint about shows now is that tables are such a cluster F and disorganized messes.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Yes, the quality of models has definitely increased over the years and I agree that tables can get disorganized sometimes.

[@theragingdolphinsmaniac4696]

@@THROTTLEPOWERit’s really difficult to focus on and appreciate each model when things are cluttered, blocked by large displays, next to spinny things. Every show should have strict display rules with limited display space. Ignoring the rules should disqualify entries because we should be able to appreciate each builder’s hard work and their art without the mess

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

@@theragingdolphinsmaniac4696 I agree.... And there are some shows that way. Each show is different, just gotta roll with the flow!!
