    Default THANKS TO THOSE WHO CAME TO TFS v2.0

    Just want to say THANK YOU to all that came and to the ones that left.

    Mother nature got us hard, But still we went on to finish the event, Yes later then expected, But we made it happen.

    We only manage to complete the Car show and Bikini Portion of the event, unfortunatly, the rest could not be done. NO RACING,NO BURNOUT CONTEST,NO 3v3 B-ball, NO STUNT TEAM...
    Whoever payed to race, you have a rain check for next friday.
    The show had an incredible start.

    After everything cleared and judging started we still had 100+ cars left.. AMAZING.
    Before the RAIN there were over 500+ vehicles, trying to race/show & sound.
    And who know how many spectators.

    But, TUNERFEST SHOOTOUT v 3.0 is ALREADY in the books for next YEAR =]

    So expect TFS v3.0 to be BETTER AND BIGGER.

    We tried to make everyone as happy as possible, IT WAS HARD, im not going to lie, but we tried.. HARD.


    ONCE AGAIN THANKS TO EVERYONE..

    Wish I could have stayed but when in starts hailing and rains about 2 feet in 20 minutes....I got scared. =) Got to see a few nice cars and some quick times.

    25 bucks was worth it to see that turbo regal run 9's. So sexy. Any pictures yet???

    HA HA HA The rain didnt tick me off to bad, I came preparred for that ( I always have a way to dry the car off at any outdoor show ) but the hail is what got me so damn pissed, and I know after that people tried to talk to me and I didnt talk to anyone, I hope people didnt think I was trying to ignore them, etc.. I was just in a bad mood after that hail

    I want to personally thank everyone who came... we were well on the way to having a bigger event than HIN, we had more participants by 530-6pm. and people were still lined up. We were actually considering closing down show entrys b/c of the size we had already; then the rain came and washed us all away.

    We did have some gate confusion b/c we didn't expect the people we got... we didn't change our gate format from last year, but we just couldn't handle the crowds through one gate. As of next year you will see a completely different format to accomadate the crowds, and we have some big plans & backing from the track to make it the only event of its kind in the US w/ some new events added. We are trying to build and strive to give you (IA) the best show we can provide.

    again thank you too all of the clubs/teams & solo who represented i know i saw people from all over IA, it was nice to see the support.

    To all of the vendors, staff, thank you for your support. There really not must to say due to the rain. Many vendors were still very happy w/ the #'s we were pulling but the rain just beat us out. We hope to see all you out next year for a bigger and better event.

    YESTERDAY WAS THE GREAT LOCAL SHOW THAT NEVER HAPPENED...

    thanx

    You guys rock, and I personally can't wait til the next one. What about maybe a v2.5?? In say the beginning of october, if X-rated isn't going to have their show. The show was alright even with it being only like 1/6 the size it originally was going to be. Paul, Julio, Pablo - you guys did a very good job trying to turn lemons into lemonade and you could tell that everyone who stuck around appreciated that.

    From Forty5 Entertainment & Shi Nasty SoundZ(THe Loud System)

    First off We want to thank Pablo,Julio and Paul for being some of the best promtoters we have worked for..The Show was On it's way to being huge. I heard something to fact of the track talking like it was bigger than anyother of it's kind before and they were not prepeared.
    THe Rain Came so quick We truly had No Choice. I hold No one resposible for Mother Nature..

    Just to let everyone knoe that asked yesterday our damage report will not be know for at least 2 weeks or so as our $100,000.00 system and 40% of my records,CD MIxers,Turntables,MIxer and so much more were flooded dramatically.We poured about a half gallon of water out of each speaker. We did permantly lose the 2 of our Top Speakers and I do not know How much more as those were Blown off the top by the high winds. Billy,My Wife,Adam,Roe and I tryed to wait out the storm for the first 30 min in the tent holding up the tent trying to save as much as we could but when the tent riped apart it was either our lives or the equipment. I Will say untill the rain we had our system were you could hear it anywhere out there it was screaming baby.

    Once again we were haveing a great time untill the freakin monsoon and do apoligize about not being able to finish but Mother Nature had other plans.

    By the way it was cool to meet those who came over especialy QD I now have a face in my head when you talk trash..Ha...


    And Yes the 3rd wed of next month we will be out at Malibu for the Internationall Allstars Bike NIght..Maybe some of ypu can come by and Say whats Up.


    We look forward to next years TF vol 3.0 as we will be better prepared for the weather maybe I wilkl set up inside a 18 wheeler of something and two box vans so that way we dont have to worry about the weather..

    Thank you once again Pablo,Julio and Paul you guys are awsome and Very Undertsanding People we will do a show for you guys anytime....
