When is AutoRama? Who is going?

Or entering their car? I would like to enter my car someday. But I doubt it will be this year. Is there a link to the event?

Sure does. you missed it by a month though. Don't worry, it was nothing spectacular this year. I'm hoping Detroit is better.

The Detroit show is always better. But I have to give credit to the GR show this year, they made a good effort, and hopefully it will grow and get better every year.

yeah, hopefully the detroit show is not half populated by vendors selling matchbox and hotwheels like GR was...

more room for REAL vehicles, less toys.

Yes but Detroit has had waay more than its share of rice the last few years and it keeps getting more each year. Not that they aren't show cars but they have their own circuits for imports..

Not like the hotrod guys want to see that crap. I think they should stick to their own show circuit.

well considering there is no street dreams or hot import nights i don't have a problem if they wanted to "expand" the show and open up a section for them that typically is blocked off by the wall. i don't think they should take up spots that muscle and hot rod cars could have taken since the show primarily started as a hot rod show.....

however, if you look at it from that perspective then all the trucks, lowriders, bikes, etc should all be out of it as well. as far as i'm concerned if its a nice car it should have a chance no matter what it is.........unfortunately the slack they give on imports is way to great.
