Checking Interest Levels

[EJGuy]

My dad's car club puts on an anual show at the Lagrange Mall every August. The last couple of years a class for Sport Comacts has been added. We were talking about adding a class for modified trucks. How many of you would be interested in participating & how should the class be labeled? We are trying to grow the show to attract a larger audiance, both spectator & participant.

btw, most of the cars & trucks @ the show will be anteques. For you trophy hunters, it means an easy score.

Thanks

yea id come but how much would the buy in be and what would the catagories be... would it be like nopi or like HIN?

As soon as the classes & Date are finalised & I get the info, I'll post it all here.
Last year there were around 100 cars. Original & modified. All but 5-10 were anteques. Some of the cars that stand out in my mind are:

55 Chevy Street Rod
69 SS/RS Camaro
22 Model T Touring Car
31 Ford Victoria
Chrysler 300 w/ a 440 Cross RAM

So not so much like Nopi or HIN, but there'll be some cool cars

yea, i understand but will it be biased towards the imports and non muscle cars? im not gonna drive 2 hours to only have my car looked at for a minute and not judged because its not a 69 gt500. if theres gonna be a specific category for imports then id be willing, but if everythings gonna be in the same group. i know sure as crap my car cant compare to a 69 SS

There is a specific class for Sport Compacts. They are judged.
In addition to trying to expand that class we are trying to open a class for late model trucks. I just need to know about how much participation there will be.
I don't know what the entry fees will be. IIRC, last year it was $10-$15.

Thanks for your input.
When I get more information, I'll let you know.
