Just got home from a day at this Years (2012) Mopars which was the busiest in terms of crowd and cars that I've seen atthe event in years.
I have plenty of pictures to share but for now and of all the pictures I could post I thought you might like a look at Rene Van Den Bergs tasty new TF bike.

I know you do "go" more than "show" Jim but when you parked you car in the show and shine arena it got loads of attention.

A good busy event this year (2012), just a shame the weather finished it at lunchtime on Sunday.

Joe Williams and Dave Russell brought the van out again with the motor finally sounding crisp and sweet.

I see loads of pictures being taken of the car and plenty of people looking at it while I was waiting for the rain to stop 8)
Thanks for praise Jim.
