Super Chevy 2007 Indy Was A Racer's Dream.
It's tough knowing where to start when reporting on the Indianapolis Super Chevy show of 2007. Last year's event pulled in a decent amount of show attendees. This year's event was a bit different. Just three hours away in Columbus, Ohio, there was another major car show in full swing that same weekend. Undoubtedly many of the local area vehicle owners couldn't be at two shows at once, so they had to make a choice, which split show attendance.
While the show car side may have been lighter than usual, the drag racers are a different breed altogether, and they showed up in droves. But we already knew that, didn't we? A great number of the Indy drag racers had amazing looking vehicles, but they weren't there to look pretty. They were chasing glory! So naturally we had a hard time knowing when to stop taking action photos of the racers.
One thing about the Indy show that never disappoints is the humungous swap meet. There were piles of parts and a great amount of project vehicles for sale. The swap meet has got to be the worst part of the show for the editorial staff. There sits the part you need, and it's only 20 bucks! How do you explain to the TSA that they have just got to let you bring that '70 Nova cowl vent with you on the airplane? Take a look at some of these action-packed photos from the show.
