We are have a meet for all import cars. There will be local and national venders there to show off their goods. We will also have a section for anyone that would like to bring used parts for sale(swap meet time).

If anyone has a website that wants a spot of there own at the meet let me know. I know Honda-tech.com already has a spot of there own. I would like to see a lot of the regional nissan guys to show up the honda guys.

I would expect around 500 cars to show up at this event. We have enough spots for about 1000.

There will be a lot of people coming into town the day before and we will be racing at a racetrack downtown on Saturday night.

Please email me if you are interested in attending the meet. Please include how many people you will be bringing with you. Send these to:
Don_Napier@nextgearinc.com

(615)596-2436 if you need directions the day of the meet.

Some people down here are thinking about going to this..

I think me and a guy who runs http://www.huntsvillecarscene.com/ are planning a caravan up there.

More info: http://www.huntsvillecarscene.com/sh...5844#post15844

Sounds like its going to be a HUGE import gathering.... 2 years ago, to Honda Tech day in Nashville was when I blew my motor in my blk FD.. Damn! Its been sometime.. I need to put my car together..

IF it is a big show maybe I can swap a day off at work and go .Would my car embarrass me and other 7 owners being low quality and out of place around the high level imports ?

I spoke with Don Napier today and this event is an import Meet not a judged show .He is trying to bring the many car forums ,groups ,clubs together .We can go in and park in a forum group if we want .The cost to get in is free .Vender cost is $ 100 with room for cars at the booth .There will be a dyno set up for some tuning if they have time . To pull on the dyno will be $ 50 .How many pulls ??? A DJ will be set up for tunes .Tuners and venders are welcome ..They will have free TEE shirts maybe and some prizes . If we go as a group and we get over 200 RX7s together then we need to give Don advance notice inorder to park together.

I can swap days and go with every one .If we all meet up before 11:00 am and roll in that would be impressive . I am sure we can atleast park together if we know how many spaces to ask for . How ever it works out should be fun .I hear about all the fine cars in the area but never see them,I guess this is the best chance .Don said there are cars comming from all over the place . We all know that even Chad can not get 200 cars together in one place at the same time ,but he can contact the most people with his list . Tell hus to keep it under 170 MPH .

I just found out that my engine builder's son will be racing at the Grand Am race at the Barber Motorsport Park that same day. His son has won all the races at the Barbers (kart). I've already purchased the tickets and I might goto that instead. I'll find out more when i see you guys in july.

Gar,
I will get it out today or tomorrow. I am still trying to update the list. Over 50 rx7 owners on it. As for getting 200 7's there......... well if Charles (5-6 rotaries) and myself (9 rotaries) could bring all of ours, then the same for a few others we might could hit that goal. It is hard to drive more than one!
This event sounds good, and yes we need to be respectful but at the same time have fun.

I thought I might have the car re-painted by then, but I guess I will just have to roll in there with the swiss cheese look! Any decisions on when and where to meet before we roll in there?
