Checked out this spl, what a waste of time! and money! It cost 40 dollars to enter which worked out to be $10 for spl, and $15 * 2 for admittance for 2 people (oh sorry I mean two "VIP's" for the same cost of general admission with coupon)! Their definition of "VIP" is re-entry privileges!
For the most part it was very unorganized, sorry I take that back it was very unorganized! To add insult to injury, future shop gave out 6" by 8" plaques to the to three of each class. The general concensus was that "great we paid $40 for $10 plaques!"

This was a house of boom?? You have to tell people what it was. All the big retailers shows are complete jokes. Was there SQ at this show???

Unhappy

Actually, I have to totally agree with the comments made so far. I went to check out the show, with no biases or aspirations, and I must say for all the shows I have gone to this year, it was by far the worst. And I don't mean just the lack of organization, I mean the lack of vehicles and booths at the show!

If they parked everyone right, the roundup center could have been reduced to half its size. Not enough cars to hold it in such a big place. Besides, who would want to pay the money they were asking JUST to go and see the show. And to have to leave your car overnight and pay $40 to have it in the show? Dont blame anyone who balked at entering their car, it's just too bad for those who did go, as it could have been much better. Its funny, Sport Compact Nights I thought was much better and this show was certainly a disappointment. And...I'll bet that I am not the only one saw it like this.

PS..I will try to convince some of the guys and gals in our AHTC group to attend these kind of shows next year. The more cars that enter events like this and compete, the better chance these shows will get better! Count me in.
