are you serious? i'm going to be in a wedding that day have fun guys!

 

Is this the same Vegas trip we've been talking about? If so, that's kind of week of Scion to put it two weeks after the Invasion. Guess I won't be going to Vegas

 

+1 ^

 

OHH Yeah, that weekend is my Birthday

 

well on a slightly more positive notes I should be able to make it to that...maybe

 

Hmmm, I might just show up for this on my birthday.

 

the dates ARE pretty close to each other now, guess I'll have to save the money I was going to spend on mods.

 

I'm just going to wait to go to Vegas until SEMA in November, should be a great time. Went to SEMA in Philly a few months ago, unbelievable show.

 

I'll be holding out for SEMA as well

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^ Wow ^^^^^^^^^^^^


Unfortunetly I was afraid this might happen. Now the group divides and lessens
turnouts for both events scheduled. What a shame -- A month apart would have
been much better for our group as a whole.

Sorry -- Just my 2 cents

 

Totally agree^^

That is why Mark is going to still fight to move it back to November. The date that is posted on Scionetics is the date he is still pushing for. We will se...

 

What is SEMA? Remember, some of us are new to the Scion family.

 

SEMA is not a SCION event, its the largest trade show regarding vehicles ever. I'm not sure if you're familair with it but its like CES only all for cars instead of electronics and other stuff. SEMA is an awesome event to attend since they have basically anything car related you could be interested in at this event including motorcycles.

I'm sure if you do a google search you can get some sites with pics from previous years at SEMA, the pics are definetely worth checking out.

 

hello. my tC club will be expecting you guys. theres is about 13 of us and at leat are 5 are show and 2 are racing. it will be fun

 

sorry I most likely will not be at this one. I am attending the Invasion and then the car goes to SEMA again this year as well. Not going to make back to back trips to Vegas.

 

Hello all

I work for ATTIK and we are organizing this event on behalf of the Scion Denver Region, and I wanted to try and give you guys a bit of a background to how this date came about.

I can promise you that the 10/7 date was not settled upon without great consideration for the events and meets surrounding it.

The original date we were looking at was going to be the same weekend as the Scion Invasion. The Invasion started out as a relatively small local meet, which has caught the imagination of a much broader owner audience, and therefore we obviously did not want to clash with that.

We were then going to move it to 10/14, but that is the date of Hot Import Nights in Phoenix.

The venues we are looking to book do not have availability on 10/21, and Halloween weekend in Vegas is crazy and impossible to book anywhere.

Moving into November is unfortunately not an option as it greatly reduces our venue and partnership options for the event.

This leaves us with 10/7.

We are very aware that this date is close to the Invasion date, and is not ideal.
However, we want to make Exprescion LV an amazing experience and we have to work around what is available.

What we are planning is something very special. If anyone knows someone from NorCal who attended this year’s SF Exprescion, I’m sure they’ll tell you how much fun it was. Our plans for Vegas are even better.

We regret that some of you will not be able to attend. This year should be the first of many annual Vegas Scion events, so hopefully all those who cannot attend this time, might make it next year.

Please watch this space over the next few weeks, as we begin to announce the venue(s), music & performance acts, Scion owner benefits plus much more.

Big thanks

ATTIK (on behalf of Scion)

 

I think the issues and concerns that the community has is that there seems be a lack of settling on a date sooner and now the year is coming to a close so Scion Denver Region has to pick a date and it just happens to make it hard for the majority to attend. Originally from the D&S region this meet was going to take place in May/June, but Scion wanted to step up and take part in this great community which is TOTALLY Awesome and please do not get any of use wrong about THAT. So we waited and waited and waited for what seemed like forever.

If you havent you can refer this thread from Feb to see the progress on this event

Seems to me that many peeps here just wanting to see something happen sooner. We were to believe May then June then July then August now October??? Business is business and we all know how corporations work. It is a slow long processa and it takes time to reach a consensus.

-The Scion Invasion event was announced in April and has been a staple event from the beginning for this region with the backing of Scion according to what we have read and heard here. And it two weeks before this Exprescion event.

- HIN PHX has been on the calendar since Jan of this year which is the week after Exprescion.

All this makes it really hard for the masses to attend or have the cash flow to make it all possible. While some can attend whatever they when they want. Having this many Top quality shows and events all so close together we will see how many will attend all of them. Good luck to all that go and I wil be thinking about whether attending myself. First inclination is to decline, but damn I love Vegas!!


I cant speak for everyone, this is just my.02

 

Chad, I couldn't have said it any better myself.
Thanks for explaining how the D&S region feels, because I don't think you left a single thing out. I would love to go to Vegas, but the date is just not an option. As Chad said, two weeks after the Invasion and a week before HIN, they must think we have tons of cash or something.

Sorry, but I am dissapointed in Scion for picking this week, regardless of the reasons.
