Default First time experiance at MCACN

This year I finally got to go to MCACN after driving through the snow storms that hit Michigan, Indiana and Illinois (6 1/2 hours) We got to the convention center and from the minute we hit the floor we were nothing but impressed by the verity and caliber of cars on the show floor. I know my son made a lot of people smile and be proud. The first car we walked up to was a 69 Camaro convertible labeled the chromearo. there was a group of guys by the car talking when my son walked up got on his knees and looked at the under side of the car. The guys looked at him and smiled and give him a big thumbs up. I had great aspirations of meeting people like Ryan and Dan and other but that did not happen but I am ok with that because I enjoyed watching my wife and son really look at the cars and ask questions. The highlight for us was the model car building. The gentleman and crew running the building were flat out amazing talking and helping us build the little red mustang. The best part was watching my son be so focused on building and seeing how it all came together then his eyes lit up when the man said he can keep the car. From the time we left the table until he fell asleep walking around the show he refused to let go of his car. I want to personally thank Dan and everyone who puts on this top notch amazing show you all have made fans out of me and my family and we will definitely return in 2016!

The last minute changes that the MCACN people had to face at the last minute were tremendous but they took the challenge and handled it expertly. The issues that did arise were completely out of their control including the weather. Despite all that the show once again raised the bar even though that bar is as high as it can go every year. Thanks to all the staff who even though were faced with a tremendous task due to the last minute changes always met us with smiles. The best of the best. Ann and I met MANY new people and made some great long term friends. Great time for sure.
