We've been volunteering at the show for a few years now, and I can't say enough good things about it, including the superb venue.
 
We will be in the U.P. this weekend. But the EOD show is always excellent. I actually managed to make it out to Bakers in the Conti this last weekend with my son. First time there in at least 2 years. Big turnout and the Ford GT club was there.

Oh man, what time were you there on Sunday?
I was at the Waterford OTD, so didn't make it to Baker's until nearly 5pm.
 
Have decided to "shrink" the herd a little.
In acquiring this one Jan. of 2017 my mission was to preserve it as a "one of one" and enjoy it for some 7-8K miles of driving. Mission accomplished!
 
Ugh Neal, that's a tough read o_O

I was not just the only the only Acura on the Eyes On Design driving tour, but the only Japanese car period.

Met someone new at a car show today, I think his name was Joe and he has a red 94. He said he's been on here before.

Did you sell the car after the auction, I thought I saw it didn't meet the reserve.

I was at Mid Ohio today too, in fact if you watched the driver's parade lap, the first black s2000 with Pietro Fittipaldi was me driving.
 
We made it a trifecta of car shows on Sunday, starting at the BaT C&C event at the Packard Proving Grounds waaaay up in Shelby Township.
It was a cool/sunny morning, but lots of interesting cars participated and the Packard Museum was open for viewing as well.
Next was the annual Battle of the Brits show at Camp Dearborn, which is always fun and has a bunch of motorcycles to check out as well.
Finally, we ended the day at the ongoing weekly Baker's of Milford show....where we often also have dinner since their food is pretty great.
We took the purple boostmonster, which as usual enjoyed plenty of interest since most of the people we met had never seen anything like it before :cool:
