V8less 2002 - Click HERE for Original Thread

Marximus
I've been asked several times what import events are scheduled for Edmonton in 2002. _With great pleasure, here is a preview. _

There will be 3 types of events, wrapped around a Sport Compact Car Championship (herein known as SC3)

Show Series
There will likely be a 2 events, the first in in Early July, and the second event in late September. _This will be an indoor night event which will be both a vendor Exhibition, Variety Show, and Show off, similiar to Hot Import Nights.

Drag Series
The events will be on July 19th and Sept 8th, which is an V8less (SCC/IMPORT) ONLY Street Legal and first of its kind. _This means no V8's, Muscle cars, and bikes, unlike last year's Sep 30th event where we were overun by muscle. _July 19th will be a night race, which will run to 1am! _Sept 8th will be a afternoon race similiar to that of V8less 2001.

Slalom Series
These Autocross events are very sketchy at this time. _V8less will own the autocross equipment and will likely take place at Budweiser Park in the staging area and based on availability. _Look at seeing 4-6 Slaloms.


Rules for SC3 are still being developed, and until we can confirm the Show and Slalom dates, we won't publish them, however your input is critical.

Having said that, running these 8-10 events will be very time consuming and will require a lot of planning and help. _If you wish to volunteer your services, please let me know. _Also, if you would like to sponsor the events, please let me know also.

These are all not for profit events.

Thanks to all sponsors including <a href="http://www.budpark.com" target="_blank">Bud Park</a> and <a href="http://www.pasmag.com" target="_blank">PASMAG</a> for supporting the Edmonton SCC/Import Scene.

I will update you on information as soon as I get it.

Now let the confusion begin...

If that isn't a good sign of success, I dunno what is  <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

For those who don't know Luong98, he organized the very first import event in Edmonton.  

BTW, SC3 is just one part of the events, we welcome all racers and show cars.

Man gonna be a sweet year.

All I need is a CAR!

wong
Oh I can assume the Drags will be at Budpark too???

Loose
Sweet!  Time to start thinking about a little road trip...

VR666
Man, I really need to go back for all these events.

REFLUX

darkman
Hey Mark! I will always help you with any events. Just to let you know.

wong
Damn, Marximus is handing out free race passes to Budpark for volunteering last year.

What do you get for Volunteering?

how about bikini gurls serving food?

REFLUX
better get someone with high standards 2 get the girls then

Marximus
Some good dieas, I dunno about bikini models.  If you know of any maybe we'll look into it.

It will be an all age show so it's gotta stay clean, if you know what I mean.


As far as voluntering, really, you don't get anything! That's why it's called volunteering. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

But expect some minor things like a name tag and free pop <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

just curious if there is any promotional type stuff (flyers, etc.) we could give away n' such for this v8less stuff?

VR666
Hey dsm4ever

Whose got the cheap ass tires that squack doing a fast lane change.  If I remember correctly you only have 3 matching tires, the other one is from Wal-mart.  <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

Not all the events are in a straight line.

OMG, That was hilarious.  

Hey DSM, the last time the 3 of us raced you and I got walked.

I can't wait for this summer.  I predict the order will reverse it self.

VR666
Yeah, I think I'll be last this summer.  Hey dsm4ever this summer you must give me a ride in your car, just like the one I gave you in March of 2001. <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

Mark, thanks for calling me with the details from the meeting with Kimberly.  <!--emo&:angry:--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'><!--endemo-->
I need some info for the indoor show so I can get started on some of it for you... As for everything else, if you ever actually call me, I can definatly help as usual. Just let me know the details.
I asked Cheryl for some help too, and she is in, once again. I think you will have all the people from last year (even though you STILL did not feed us) and I would love to see more people out there this year with us.  <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

Marximus
Actually I have very weak proof that I was trying to contact you.   Ask the Egg.

Anyhow, I will call you tomrrow.  But based on how infrequesntly you log on, chances are I would have talked to you bfore you received this message  <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->

BTW, thanks for rounding up the troops.

BlueTurboEGG
'Tis true...

You really need to look at your Computer access once again Crystal, get your priorities straight <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

GirlRacer P1
Oh shuddup Andy..... as for Mark, I got your message last night, but was unable to respond..... I will call you tomorrow on your cell and we can discuss everything then. Thank you for trying to call.   <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

Marximus
Well looks like its gonna be a crazy summer.  We have a location for the Indoor event ready to go.  Just neeed to line up some events for it!

I hope you have good news Crystal.

BlueTurboEGG
That's nice Mark, but you wanna fill me in here too?...

A few funny ideas for the indoor import show:

DJ Showdown- DJ's battling for supremecy?
Loud Mouth Drags- Who has the loudest mouth?
Loud/Quiet Exhaust contest?
Most outrageous execution of Neon on a vehicle (c/mon, you know there's gonna be someone who can fit this bill)
Dance competition- Girls and Guys dance off
Any way we can get one of those large R/C car tracks at our event?, like they have at the Car Show and WEM.
Model Car contest?
Largest grouping of cars without a Veilside/Combat/Shogun bodykit?...



<!--EDIT|BlueTurboEGG|Feb. 20 2002,07:52-->

BlueTurboEGG
Any chance of getting one of those NASCAR style pitstop wheel change centers for our indoor show?...

Just like the one they have/had at the Auto show this year and last?.

dropzone
CIN would have been a lot better if the show wasn't spread over an entire day.  It will be fun as long as there are poeple there.

GirlRacer P1
Andy: We'll discuss ideas this week when I see you!! I have some things to go over, and throw some ideas around.
