- No sign of high rollers Rick Hendrick or John Staluppi
- the top car of the auction was less than the top car at Mecum Kissimmee
- trucks/SUV's bringing absolute stupid $
- Late 70's Trans Ams selling for insane $
- lost commentator Chris Jacobs to Mecum
- NO SIGN OF CHARLIE LILLARD EITHER?

I went to BJ Scottsdale about 10 years ago and want to go back but not sure it still has the same energy?

Look forward to the opinions of others.
On Wednesday night I did see Hendrick's general manager of Hendrick Performance (Dale Ledbetter) on the phone & winning the bid of I believe $3.6 millon on the 1st 2023 yellow Corvette built.
