2018 Stray Kat 500 Coverage Part 1

It’s hard for me to write about the 2018 Stray Kat 500 some times. I (maybe unfairly) love this show and the weekend. From the time that I first attended the show I immediately got it, the vibe of the show that is hard for me to capture in words. The people that attend this event, the laid back vibe, some amazing vehicles  and the occasional great weather all combine for what is annually one of my favorite events to attend.

Thursday night I wanted to head to Salina to get the Galaxie cleaned up from the Lonestar Round Up trip. In the 20 mile drive this storm appeared on the horizon.

48 Cars In 48 States : The Great American Road Trip – A 48 state road trip with a stop in each state to photograph a traditionally styled hot rod, kustom or drag vehicle. I completed the trip in November 2017 and have been working on a 224 page coffee table book of the entire 9 week adventure since. The book will be out in the Spring of 2018. You can pre-order the book here!
