The UConn Car Club would like to invite you to be a part of our 5th Annual Spring Car Meet, on Saturday, April 19th, 2008. In the unfortunate event of rain, the show will be moved to Sunday, April 20th.
What you need to know:
Location:
W-Lot Commuter Parking Lot on the Storrs Campus
Directly off Storrs Rd (rt. 195)
Storrs CT, 06269
(see map below)
Hours:
Gates open @ 9:00 am
Registration closes at 12:00 pm
Gates close when the parking lot capacity has been reached
Events will take place between 11:30-2:00
Trophies by 3:00-4:00 pm
Price:
Free to spectators
$10 dollars to show
Parking:
There will be no pre-registration this year. If your group would like to park together, arrive early and drive in together as a group. The first map attached below lists parking lots in the area and their locations, so you can meet as a group before arriving at the show in order to drive in together.
Competitions:
Highest
Lowest
Loudest
Bragging Rights
For those who have yet to see one of our shows, we tend to amass some of the greatest diversity of cars in one place. Anyone who has been to a previous show can attest that there's something for everyone, including classics, domestics, imports, euros and even supercars. All makes, models and price ranges of vehicles are welcome.
Trophies:
Classes are listed below. There will be a 1st place and runner up for each category.
1980 & Up:
Import FWD
Import RWD

Specialty Awards:
Sleeper
Best Club (Quality)
Club Participation (Attendance)
UC3 Choice
Note: Best Club Participation Club Award goes to the club with the most participating members. Best Club Award will be awarded to the club that UC3 deems to have the highest quality entrants.
Other mentionables:
- The parking lot has a maximum capacity of around 600 cars. Once the parking lot is full, THE GATES WILL BE CLOSED. No ifs, ands, or buts. Plan accordingly and it should not be a problem.
- Arrive with the people you want to park with, there will not be any room to leave empty parking spaces open. (see pics below for parking lots outside of the show that you can congregate at prior to arrival)
- Judging will be done by the attendees and will begin at exactly noon. Those who arrive past noon will not be allowed to register for judging.
- We will have porta-potties within the show and more food vendors as well.
Sponsors/Vendors
If you are interested in becoming a sponsor or vendor please contact the club for further details. Space is limited but arrangements can be made.

I was there in the fall, and I should be here in the spring.
I'm not sure if I'll bother putting my car in the show, but Jstoops I think I still have the ticket from the fall does that give me half price to enter the show?

I'm pretty sure yea it does.
Also, i extend this offer to anyone like i did the fall show, if the drive is too far for you to make in one night I have one open bed available and I also offer my dining hall passes to anyone who might have stayed the night (be it in their car or in the hotel on campus) and is hungry i've got a million of em so its no biggie. Our spring show is huge! the whole lot is full by early in the day and there's tons of variety of cars.
Like i said before any questions just post em up here

I might be down for this one. AZ could win the "Best Club" category, we've got some pretty clean rides around here.
I went to this last year cause I happened to be in the area and it was totally rained out, sucked. I hope it's nice this year
