Haha - Yep, that was a fun show. I was going to put the Libres on, but messed up my hand and couldn't. I was the only white-wall guy for sure, but everyone was very welcoming and enthusiastic about the car. To my complete shock, I received a sponsor award from O2 Creation in San Jose.

Surprised? With a car that well done you shouldn't be! I suspect you opened the eyes of more than a few attendees. Great showing John!
P.S. If you ever see me near your car you better put a lock on that windshield washer bottle, that's a real gem :D
