    I was at Wagon Fest last July and it was a lot of fun. Yes it is specifically for '91-'96 B body GM wagons, but there were about 50 cars last year in the small town of Waterloo NY. Fri. night is just a hang out / tech time. Sat. we all go to a NY state park in Geneva, rent a shelter, grill some hots and burgers, and just "hang out" with each other and talk about anything and everything (mostly the wagons). Then Sat. night we all go out to eat at a nice restaurant and talk some more. Sun. a bunch of people go over to a junk yard and beat up a few cars, and then everyone goes home. I have met some great people there that I now call friends. It was kind of sad that the Pontiac 6000 wagon got wrecked last year, but it wasn't mint, just a daily driver that Fred was having some problems getting a title for. I don't know all the details about how it got volunteered for the derby, but it was Fred's car to do what he wanted to with. Anyway Fred sells cars on the side, and specializes in '91-'96 GM B-body wagons, they are his passion. Fred and his wife put a lot of time, energy and money into the fest every year and everyone that goes has a great time. I'm going back this year! Can't wait!
    Take a look here, we are not all LT1 donks! http://gmlongroof.4umer.com/wagonfest-2009-f25/
    Oh yeah, there was a guy last year came from Olds, Alberta. 2,300 miles and 35 hours away!
