Meh.. the days of the 'import show' are soooo over in Vancouver.

An RS.net meet would be better... and free.

nabs 04-15-2013 09:38 PM

got my free ticket. most likely won't be in town to enjoy it, i'll give it to my brother or someone.

ineedNOS 04-15-2013 09:40 PM

rocky mountaineer = mainly outdoor and if it rains it will suck balls!

not gonna be registering my car for this even though i just picked up new Volks and repainted my car last year. I registered for DTP a few years ago at the same venue and i'm not gonna be paying to park my car outside in a parkade ever again ...hope there will be an all indoor show again soon, i miss those days.

If the sun shines i might check out the show otherwise i'll check out the pics on RS :)

lilaznviper 04-15-2013 10:03 PM

wasn't this the same place that hosted the last DTP and it was raining

^^ DTP by yokohama that year wasnt fun for anyone, our cars got wet outdoors and had to wait til rain stops then wipe off quickly while the judges are on their way to judge.
Luckily we all got tents to hide under...then it started rain all over again.

I miss the old days of importshows, mostly all indoors, we all knew each other and our car classes and competition, everyone had been working hard for months to debut, scn in may; dtp by toyo in june, summer gatherings and cruises and importfest in november, best part was we didnt mind paying reg. fees it was good healthy competition and bragging rights hahah (plus we need to support our sponsors)...we all worked hard and shook hands near end when trophies were called, the feel when on stage with your new trophy, and best part was when we all finished prepping; judging; showcased; all the owners would be outside smoking and talking to one another about whats been new...
I remember seeing the old crews either napping or chatting next to their cars...

Ahh... Memories...

Shoutouts to the serious competitiors... If anyone remembers... RS booth in 2002, ajr, bpt, revolution, g5, is-impressions, team celica, vac, vpc, vcc, 604civicclub, teamtoyo, teamworks, team menace, vader speed and sound, euro projectz, rev competition, the independence guys that rolled in solo and still took recognition... And so much more...
