So, I skipped the NTBA’s 2007 T-Bucket Nationals because I wasn’t eager to drive 1,700 miles to Arizona. But when the 2008 event rolled around and was conveniently located in Springfield, IL, I was there in a flash. Maybe not as many cars as had been at Mountain Home in the past, but you could chalk that up to $4 gas, a bad economy and the fact that most people’s eyes don’t light up when somebody mentions visiting “lovely” Springfield, IL. But, overall, the quality of cars was excellent and well worth the trip. Sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

P.S. If you see any T-Buckets you particularly like, let me know because I may well have more pics available.
