But still its pretty amazing to see how much money some people will drop into their cars

Its nice to see some of the cars on the road closer in person and ask some questions, not to mention cool swag and deals from vendors.

I think everybody that are really into cars and car culture will want a show. The shows are usually lots of fun, have lots of cool cars and cool ideas for modifying, usually some decent looking underage broads, some good music and some cool new products.
People that think the show is stupid or don't care to have a show or go to it are usually older, have a wife and a kid and/or love their bus pass. They don't have much of a care for cars or are jaded because of all the 'cool' stuff they see on Pimp my ride. Its just funny that they're on Revscene.

I wouldnt count on it. Seems Toyo is doing nothing but cut backs for the past 2-3 years in an attempt to save money where ever they can. With the dollar so strong it doesnt exchange very well for head office in Japan

sick RX7, I like the banner..... but if they advertise is as taking place and bail 2 years in a row, fuck that's a slap in the face to all local enthusiasts there oughtta be some repercussions or something if they end up bailing on us again.
I'm super excited for this years show because there has been so many sick exotics spotted in town over the last year or so, I can't wait to see them all nicely prepped in the show!
And you said something about Toyo tires, they been sponsoring all these previous years right ?? from the looks on the banner it says Yokohama, did Toyo perhaps ditch the sponsorship and Yoko took over ??

I like the idea of having it come back. A few years ago, I would say no because it would be one of maybe 3 shows per year that features the exact same cars. Those have died off. Now, there is only the RS meets, so I think having an actual show every now and then would be good.

(Here come the fails) But "driven to perform" is actually a slogan for Toyo Tires, so Im a little curious as to naming rights. But yes it looks to be the case that Yokohoma wants to advertise more than Toyo.
As for repercussions if they bail out, well IF they try for a 3rd year after 2 failed attempts back to back, I think the best thing we as a community can do it not support the event. You have to support others if you want them to support you. Canceling shows and dicking the community around is not a postive showing of support for our hobby
