i was kinda disapointed when the flyer said ''monster truck'' not big rig? i found that confusing to me... thinkin the jacked up xB would be there... but the limo looked nice.. an i agree wit more vendors..as well as more classifications. but this wasnt really a ''car show'' just a scion show by scion. an i dont remeber the chick who got in trouble.. but i agree it was a family/freindly event. an i dont drink beer....
i didnt go to the club either since clubbin isnt my thing.. i just chilled an did my own thing..

My suggestion for Improvement lets see:

1. Instead of just a tc hot laps they should have included an xA/xB lap course for those interested in autoXing their xA/xB.

2. Instead of completely tearing down an xB and rebuilding it they should have demonstrated all upgrades (for all models) and shown where in DFW you can purchase or have thing installed (i.e. the hook up for scion owners). I mean thanks to this event I now know where everyone get their graphics (SD ) or some custom work done.

3. I agree more classes for show comps. (best speed set up, best interior, etc...)

4. For those into speed should of had a straightaway shootout (drag race anyone, we all signed the waiver), I mean not everyone is in it for the style only

5. Could of brought a portable dyno like at turner bash in FL so we could dyno our cars

6. Could of had an alternate venue for the pre-party not everyone their wants to hang out in a club (I can't drink for medical reasons)

7. The kenny tran booth could have shown what they could do for our xb's beside just pimping out their 500hp monster

8.Lastly, post party lets just rent out cozymel's event if the charge was five bucks to get in AYCE I would have gladly paid

But in fairness we all have 20/20 hind sight so to those who put the event together much respect to you I appreciate what we did have and even if you didn't make a single change I would still attend next year and take all the awards

pinoy, if you still have the graphics pm me for I am still intrested in gettin mines.

my 2cents................

ok from beginning to end.............

about the club thing (pre-party) or whatever to find a place for 18-up.......there are lots of scion owners under age....................more people at the place=more fun

classifications::::::::::::::been to few shows
they always have (((((((((((((((( STREET))))))))))))))))))))))))))) classs...... (you have to be street before mild..........
the longest drive award!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
some interior, exterior, engine awards as well........

another thing for the cruise...........police escorts should of done a better job than that
POLICE making everyone drive fast it was cool but,,,,,,,,that is no fun to be driving and be taking pictures like that.....i believe i was driving on my 80's . when houston did it, everyone driving around 40+45 mph.....was fun and be able to
take pictures

BUT AFTERALL EVERYTHING WAS ALL GOOD..............

I am with Nes on the cruise I think I was going 85mph at one point and the cop was telling me to speed up.

Also there needs to be a street class!!!

Hell, Mike was doing 105 with a cop right beside him.

Probably wouldn't have happened if he hadn't been text messaging while driving in the middle of a convoy on the highway.

we were traveling way to fast and on multiple ocassions me and roger almost got ran into by other drivers. the cops werent able to get all the intersections blocked quick enough and there was one point were we had to stop very quickly going really fast and almost got smashed by Vaughn, but hes an awesome driver and didnt smash us. lol and then i remember that the cops would drive inbetween us and almost get hit by one of our cars. not safe

did anyone notice the police SUV driving across the concrete median to get passed the traffic that was at an intersection we were passing.

I dont think they were expecting that many people to be there....
