Unfortunately that's all the information he provided, not sure of where to meet or the location, etc. I wasn't even sure if this was spam or not lol, but if anyone is interested maybe try contacting them via the e-mail.

I won't be making it to this event since I have to get ready to head up to WA for NOS Forum Fest, www.forum-fest.com

I think it would be a blast to get a group together for this. Don't really feel like being in a parade, but the show and shine would be fun. Can we just show up for the show, get there early and get the cars cleaned up from the drive? May have to post a link to this on Scikotics and see if any of them want to go. There are a few on there that don't cruise SL very often.

Also, where is this suppose to take place at, the dealership? If so, I guess I could call them and find out whats going on for sure.

I just sent him an email asking if we can just show and not parade and where the event is at. 10 cars would be sweet, but I would be happy with 5, lol.

I just might do this....do they have a trophy for custom/modified cracked lip kits caused by road debris? If so, I'm pretty sure I'd be locked in for 1st place..
ponder...ponder...ponder.

And if they could email or call me rsnails@hotmail.com or service@griffithmotors.com or call 800-395-0250 if they have logistics questions and possibly to let me know how many cards I need to put in the gift bags for u guys, that would be GR8, Again---THANK YOU 4all your help on this. Next year will be a MEGA event---$500 for 1st placers, vendors for scion accessories, scion region cars and vendors, live band, food, prizes---etc…….trying to sched that 1 around august for our car races in Dallesport………but that is still TBD, take care man-thanx again-----ToYoGeArHeAd(Ron)
Ron and the dealership sound like great people, and it would be nice to meet them!! I've never heard of a dealership offering such wonderful hospitality to a car show, and it's definitely a great opportunity for us to come out!!
