How Does the Car Show Work? Can You Really Cheat?
Our car show, like this entire event outside of the community and social pieces, is designed to raise money for our charity. The car show is no different. So there are no judges here. All awards are by people choice. Everyone who registers, buy raffle tickets or donates will get “votes” that they can use to vote for their favorite car.
Does this mean you could donate a bunch of money, get a bunch of tickets and vote for yourself (or your friends) to ensure they win? Absolutely. We’re here to raise money for kids. So if you want to help makes kids lives better by donating a bunch of money to get a trophy in a fake car show, not only are we cool with it, we’ll applaud it and tell stories about you.
The event is open to everyone, and it usually really cool cars that win. But if you are looking for some professionally judged show of car show purists, this isn’t it.
What If I Don't Have a Race Car?
Everyone is welcome to enter our car show. We specifically have an unlimited/open class just because we always get some awesome cars to come that are not race or track cars. We love it all the same.
The event is open to everyone, and it usually really cool cars that win. But if you are looking for some professionally judged show of car show purists, this isn’t it. We have had a few people get their feelings hurt because they typically win “judged” car shows and don’t win at our event. We are here to raise money, so if you want to have a good time doing that, come join us.
Will You Park Clubs Or Groups Together?
If you arrive together, we will park you together if you would like. If you have a large club and plan 10 or more pre-registrations we will be glad to discuss special arrangements. You are also welcome to put up a club banner.
Can I Register The Day Of The Show
We generally ask you pre-register if you are coming. However, if there is space available the day of the event we will gladly accept day of signups.
The last 2 years our event “sold out”. While we do our best to try to accommodate last minute people who show up on site, we have had to turn people away.
Also we prioritize our pre-registrations, so until we’ve parked all of our pre-registrations, we will not open up no show space or unsold space until that process is complete.
Do You Have Trailer Parking?
Yes! Lots of people (ourselves included) bring a trailered only race car to the event. We will have a dedicated area for parking trailers and you are welcome to arrive a little early to help get setup. We’ve even rally’d to push a few race cars whose motors blew up and didn’t run, but still wanted to support the event. Because that’s part of racing.
Our Venue
For the last 3 years Pontoon Brewing has been the host of the Drivers Festival. We take over the entire facility, and most of the neighboring parking lots.
