2008 Baton Rouge Super Chevy Show - True Street Blasts

Enthusiastic crowds lined the fences on both sides of the track watching the hot cars run.

Bigger is better. One thing that was very noticeable at this show was the amount of full sized Chevrolets. (Which if you ask me are the best things on four wheels) Impalas, Belair's, Biscayne's, of all shapes sizes and model years were on display at the show. Is this a new trend? Have most folk given up on owning an outrageously priced Camaro, Nova or Chevelle, and in turn have sought out the plus sized models?

This Biscayne was so bad it should be in detention! Yet another fine display of a plus sized panty raider. Dig the wheels and dig the stance.

Speaking of plus sized vehicles that weekend their were four 1958 Chevrolets. Were lucky to see that many in an entire year at the Super Chevy Shows.

I just loved one, A Parkwood wagon painted up in Olive drag. On the side of the door it reads "Area 51 Alien Retrieval". Who knows what type of top secret antics go on in the back seat of that stabin' cabin on wheels.

From Olive Drab to a full set of red flames, another magnificent Chevrolet wagon rolling like a bat out of...well, you know.

I have chest pains every time I look at this photo.

This third gen Camaro hung a perfect 10 when it launched on the green.

Red as he is known, had a super cool convertible '92 Camaro and took home an award for best in his class. Come to think of it he had the only 3rd gen on the show car side. Dig the chromed IROC wheels.

It seemed there were quite a few vehicles with an LS1 or an LS2 neatly tucked away in the engine bay. This '68 Camaro was no exception.

He was proudly displaying his Editors Choice Top 10 Award the very next day.

Another Camaro owner displaying his Editors Top 10 Award.

There was not an empty seat in the house, especially when the Nitro coupes ran and the jet car.

Stars & Bars and GM cars. Welcome to the south!

Perhaps one of our youngest drivers that received at top 10 editors choice drag award went to Jonah Begnaud and his 1969 388 Camaro from Cecelia, Louisiana. Raise em' right and they will never turn towards the rice burners.
