I'll probably check it out. I'm going to be mad if my car is better than the stuff shown. That happened with at Heatwave event a few years ago. Who shows a car that has primer patches, rusted hood, and a "under construction" sign?

I won't be arriving in my good car though. Beater ftw!

that show was shitty, thats all i have to say. there was no kinda vendors at least i didnt see any. the drifters were cool, there was some nice cars but the turn out wasnt that great at least in my own opinion.

lol! Sadly, nope, not the greatest...

I didn't even see the drifters or the dyno runs. We should sue HIN for false advertisement.

Drifters and the dyno were both there. I don't know how you could have missed them. I saw both. Hell, I saw everything in about 2 hours.

overall it was a decent event. obviously it isn't eibach or IA. there were some nice clean cars. a lot more rhd vehicles than what I was expecting. it would be better to have this event indoors also.

this is the 5th hot import nights i have been to 2 in florida 2 atlanta and no this one. this was the absolute worse show they have ever had. thats why my expectations were really high for this show. i cant wait for hot import night orlando. now thats a show.

Nah, like I meant, I knew they were there but didn't bother to actually see them. Gets too crowded. Had a good time none the less, and good turkey legs!

I went, entered my car and meet some cool as people. This was the first show I have ever done, however I didn't meet anyone from the forums except for the people I already knew. Still good none the less, I think it too would have been better indoors.
