very good show...

 

Great show, great time, congrats to all the winners. Thanks go out to everyone invloved in putting this event together. Lots of great sponsors, I need to take some parts to HGI, that stuff is the coolest.
We made a lot of kids happy this christmas with this event, cna't wait for next year.

 

i would like to say great show, sweet rides and congrats to all the winners and for Matt for putting on another great show and thanks to everyone that brought toys for the kids.

I know alot of kids this christmas are getting hooked up LOL

 

Great show, nice turnout and ton of toys donated. The kids getting the toys from this show are the real winners.

 

We had an absolutely fantastic time and cannot wait to be a part of it next year!

Thanks to all who said hi throughout the day!

Remember, pics will be up Tuesday!

 

Ok I think I am finally home........Good lord that was a long drive.

Awesome show.........It was really nice to see all the great cars once again.

Thanks to all the great sponsers who gave away so many really sweet prizes.

Thanks to Beaverton Toyota for host us all and for the great burgers and hot dogs....gos I was hungry and that really made my day.

Thanks again Matt,Cynce,Doug and all the rest who did all the hard work to put on the show....You guys rock....

And a special thanks to the wonderful Marines who spent the whole day out in the cold and rain collecting toys for all the kids this Xmas.......that is a great thing you do every year.They were truly impressed with how many toys that all the participants brought for them.I still wonder how many van loads they filled......yes van loads......and a lot of them......it was really cool....hope to see them back next year.

I feel for the judges as there were so many really sweet cars to judge.....so many makes and models......it was most likely a chore to figure up the final points in all the classes and pick the winners.

Also thanks Nate for the cool surprise for Joe........xmas is gonna be tight here this year and that has been something he really has been wanting all year......

 

Here Here....It was a great turnout...although im still kinda woozy from all the fumes in the building..It's good to pull your car in first, but that just means your the last to get out....

 

This was an awesome show, I just wish Project Green was in a condition to be showed. LOL, great to put a face to the people I talk to on the forums every day.

See yall up there next year again.

 

Thanks to all the sponsors and to Matt and Cynce for a great show. Was great to see everyone! It is awesome how many kids are going to have stuff for Christmas! That is AWESOME! So glad we could be part of it!

Matt will be getting official numbers from Toys for Tots with the total count of toys and money that was donated throughout the event – but there were enough toys to fill THREE CARGO VANS TO THE BRIM!! The Marines were blown away at how charitable this event was. And like Rick said – the real winners of this show are all those children who will be getting holiday gifts this year!

Preliminary registered vehicle count this year was 205 vehicles – giving us a 20% increase in registrations from last year! Imagine how huge this can be next year!! :D

Look for PDXine.com’s OFFICIAL event coverage sometime tomorrow along with official numbers on donations in the coming week! Congrats to all the trophy winners!
