With 2017 in the books, I can honestly say it will be hard to top for Lonnie and Radar. They’ve built a show that’s talked about the moment it’s over. I’m anxious to see what they have in store for 2018, but in all honesty, as long as they keep doing what they’re doing, promote the way they do, get people excited about the show, I can see this show sticking around for years and years. These two are pure enthusiasts of the hobby, and put on this show for all the right reasons. They give tens of thousands of spectators, and thousands of exhibitors a place to hang out, meet new people, and check out rides some of us thought we’d only ever get to see in magazines. Not much more you can ask for than that. www.lonestarthrowdown.com
