For the past several years during the summer, a group of people have organized "Exotics@RTC" (Exotics at Redmond Town Center) car shows, with some amazing things showing up. Ever since I was allowed to bike through Redmond by myself (October 25, 2019), I have planned to attend these events. Unfortunately, COVID happened and there was only one event this year, held on October 3. Dubbed "the Photo Booth", the event was not for spectators; attendees had to sign up. The pictures will be posted on the Exotics@RTC website, but I wanted to see the cars in person. In other words, I was the only spectator, albeit a rather distanced one.
(Note: I wasn't there the entire time, so the gallery doesn't include every car that attended. There were also two photo locations, the second of which I discovered shortly before the time when I planned to leave. All the cars went through the location I started at, but not all went to the second location.)

Dri-Sleeve was a replica manufacturer with just one model: a replica of the Bugatti Type 37 called the Moonraker. Produced only in 1971, just six were made, each one with the Ford Kent engine from the Cortina. I met the owner, Nathan "Mad" Muntz, who you can learn about here. Muntz says that he hates driving it on the freeway because of how loud it is.
