Although I'm sad to hear NOPI shut down events, this is a good thing for some of the smaller, less "Wal-Mart" venues. Maybe we can attract some more attention to Import Showdown with all of the former sponsors of NOPi.

We all know that I.S. is more of a sportsman event with volunteers working the lanes, but maybe some of this attention could help it grow from the average 150 cars to a good 250 cars or more.
