If anyone is near Bremerton this Sat(June 15th), I'm going to have my Kelmark/TurboII at the car show at the Perry Avenue mall(Northeast Bremerton, 2901 Perry Ave.) I've been working on this two and a half years and this is my first show! Its the only TurboII powered Kelmark there is.

Well, my first car show was kind of disapponting. It was the first time they had this car show, so I don't think they really had it down. No awards for, imports, sports cars, kit cars, etc.(they didn't really know what to make of my car with a rotary engine.) They did have an award for "Euro Car" that went to a riced out Honda(I think it was a honda.) There were about a half dozen imports there(out of 100-125 cars.)
Well, the "Cruz" in Port Orchard Aug 11th is 10 times bigger with lots more going on(live music,beer garden, food, arts fair, parts venders, 30,000+ people, etc, and a whole lot more good looking women!) I hope to see a lot of rotary cars there.

Well, to the people that ran the show,if it wasn't a Chev or Ford, it was a "Euro" import. So to them a Honduh was a "Euro."When I told them I had a '78 Kelmark,they went What?? What country was that made in?(made in Michigan!) And when I told them I had a Mazda Rotary TurboII engine(in the back), I think their brains went into overload!!
Well, to show you how this show was, the big Peoples Choice award went to a stock PT Cruiser with a bunch of toy cars on its hood!(Go figure!)
Well, the "Cruz" Aug 11th here in Port Orchard will be a lot more fun, at least there will be people there that know what a rotary is or own one(or two, or three.)
