Judging by your car club website you are trying to organize a group for the wrong weekend. DSMs, STI’s, EVO’s etc. are the performance and style group May 9-11. The group the kit car guys are looking to avoid.

Import > Performance and Style. The cars are much more interesting than a bunch of riced out Hondas.

I understand that but it’s a tradition that dates back years. A large group of us had SPG Saabs and I had a Viggen. I brought up the same point but like I said the tradition aspect is more important to us. They have imports there all usually very clean and well done. I think that is what paNX2K&SE-R was referring to. It’s an older crowed than the style and performance. By the way, for some reason there is a large nissan group with 240s-350Zs. Plus on top of that May 10th is our clubs annual show at the Icoplex.

^^^ Yeah you nailed it man ^^^

We also have a group of SR20 guys that have been going to Carlisle off and on since the late 90s (back when the import/kit show was still combined with the custom compact show) and generally prefer the crowds and the cars at the import show.

Crowd is way more mellow. Cars are way more tastefull.

Lets get SR20 guys together this year. Jim can drive again!

I’d go but I think Jim and his crew normally hit the Custom Compact show, not the Import show.

Yea, you are right. He is trying to get me to go to Style and Performance. He tried last year too… I don’t know what I’m doing…

I have been to both many times, and I have picked this one to go to for the last couple years. Its a lot more chill and you get to see some stuff you don’t see everyday. Not to mention its one of the largest SAAB gatherings in the USA.

yep thats the one i go to. been goin since they pretty much started having them. i’ve always wanted to check out the import / kit car show though, but being in the same month, i never can afford too.
