It is impossible to know how many cars will appear. You have to kind of go by the pre-registration numbers. Next year they will know to give more thought to placement of cars initially. It was a fun and relaxing day in a nice setting. I will be back next year and recommend this show. Congrats to Ryan and The Stewarts on their win. ]]> Mon, 29 Jun 2009 00:22:25 +0000 1270-72 http://www.wiscollectorcar.com/component/content/article/88888910-car-shows-2009/1270-O-Town-Showdown-Oregon-2009.html Aaron was expecting 30 cars today and ended up with around 130!!! A very nice first show that will continue to improve in the future. The door prizes and entertainment were very good, I'm sure many will come back to this show next year. ]]> Mon, 29 Jun 2009 00:00:34 +0000 1270-70 http://www.wiscollectorcar.com/component/content/article/88888910-car-shows-2009/1270-O-Town-Showdown-Oregon-2009.html Congrats to GTOman and BigBlock for their 1st wins! For a 1st year show in which they were planning on only 50 cars coming they had one heck of turn out with about 130 cars. They may need to make a decision on whether they need to move it to a bigger location next year (like to the right of the tennis courts across the street). This was a nice show with a lot of hometown feel to it; I enjoyed it and plan to recruit others to the show next year. My suggestions for next year: Bigger location, with more folks parking and maybe some painted lines on the field to line up the cars Different class organization (if there is +100 cars again next year I'm sure more cars will come with better class organization; participant judging is fine, it is nice to attend a mix of shows with participant or normal judging) 4PM awards is pretty late for most folks who sit outside in the sun all day (2-3PM is typical); by 4PM about 30 cars had already rolled out. ]]> Sun, 28 Jun 2009 23:02:29 +0000
