Springfest 2000 was hosted by Black Hawk County Street Machines and took place in Waterloo, Iowa on May 13.  There were about 220 different cars entered in the show in lots of different classes.  The turbo Buick camp was not represented very well as they are a rarity in these parts for some reason.  There was only a lone 1987 Grand National and myself competing at the event.  I entered my car in Street Machines 1983 - present, which had some fairly decent competition, including several Monte Carlo Super Sports, a really nice Hurst Olds, and a few other pretty nice G-bodies with great heart transplants..  My car pulled it out though, running away with 1st place in its class.  I really enjoyed the show and it was a treat overhearing comments on how fast Buicks were and how the "supercharger" adds tons of power.  I even heard one guy tell his wife that "that Buick" would outrun any car here and most people don't know that.  I was all smiles, of course.
