This Sat & Sun from 9am to 5pm, you oughta hit the Fort Allen Antique Tractor Association's Ice Cream Social Show in West Overton PA. In addition to the many many great old tractors and other antique farm equipment (all operational, incl. steam and hit-or-miss engines), many varieties of Ice cream (homemade ice cream too and such) there will be a display of models and antique toys by The Olde Potbelly Gang Model Car Club. Rustycab, Rocko, and others who post here are members of this fine organization. I can't speak for anyone else, but I (Rocko), intend to be there Sunday. PLUS the club will be doing demonstrations of the National Gravity Dragster Association's model car dragstrip !!!!! Yep, that's right, model cars IN ACTION on a 32 foot-long sloping scale dragstrip! Come witness the excitement, the thrills of victory, the agony of defeat.. maybe even a wicked crash and burn... It's a blast! Stop out and see it if you can! The show is located on Rt. 819 between Scottdale and Rt. 119 and right beside the West Overton Museum. The hours are Sat. & Sun. 9-5pm. If you need any additional info drop me a line, i'll be on and off line from now till the weekend. I'll try to get the exact address so you can mapquest for directions, or just mapquest West Overton PA

Bobby- That's what's tough about bein the Top Gun, everbody's always gunnin for ya lol. But good ol' Rocko is up for the challenge.. Put it to ya this way... If you guys thought the Rocket 88 was fast, you ain't seen nuthin yet Aerodynamic testing reveals that the big-ass fins on 1959 Cadillacs actually DO add stabilty at supersonic speeds. And yes, "big-ass" IS a scientific term. Us hillbilly engineers use it alla time
