Just in case you are wondering, here are a few tips on how NOT to hold a car show.

• Don’t take over a Shopping strips parking lot with out permission to display 400+ cars!
• Don’t Ignore the property owners request that you hold the events somewhere else
• Don’t block off entrance to the store so that customers are afraid to go into the store to shop (this has the tendency to annoy the store owner)
• Don’t hold Peel out, Doughnut (spinning around in circles with your vehicles tires burning out) competitions or other vehicle stunts in the crowded parking lot
• Don’t ignore Police Trespass warnings when choosing the location for your event

While this may seem rather obvious to some of us apparently it was somewhat less obvious to the 44 people arrested and the owners of the 33 impounded cars.
