RADwood and Autopian Meetup Delight Car Fans, But Early Flights Loom

The RADwood event and the Autopian meetup the night before were both great successes, bringing together car enthusiasts for a celebration of automotive culture. The author, however, faces an absurdly early wake-up to catch a flight home, leading to a mix of exhaustion and satisfaction. The events highlight the vibrant community around retro and enthusiast cars, with attendees enjoying the camaraderie and shared passion. While the author plans to complain about the early morning, the overall experience was clearly worth it, underscoring the dedication of fans who travel for such gatherings. The takeaway: even the best automotive events end with a groggy trip to the airport, but the memories make it worthwhile.
