Rep Power: 0 DTP In Calgary May 28th, 05.
Anyone from here, besides me that is, going to the Driven To Perform show at the Calgary Olympic Oval on Saturday May 28th? I'm actually showing there, but wondering if anyone else is showing or going to check it out?
Would be nice to meet some of the other 7th gen members.

Rep Power: 762 So how about some comments on the show... I think it sucked... maybe worth the trip to meet some new people and bring home some new hardware (trophies), but compared to the comparable big import shows in Vancouver (more recently, SCN) there was just no comparison.... you guys have a LOT of SICK JDM, but that was unfortunately all that impressed me
did meet blue-wolf though, cool guy and a hell of a ncie car, also met some other guy in a pink shirt that was from this site but can't remember the name

Rep Power: 0 For one, security sucked. Second, it wasn't really organized all that well. 3rd, the stage for the breakdance stuff was allowed to be WAAAAAAYYYYYY too loud (Like distorted so you couldn't understand a damn word they were saying. 4th, I would go on but what's the point. The judges never even really did much. Came over, took a quick glance, marked done on the contestant sheet, and said they didn't have time to find out what you had done to your car and moved on.
I met the same guy you were talking about, Megahurtz. Can't remember his name either. And, your car was awsome. Sorry I didn't get a chance to come and see you before we all drove out, but I'm sure we'll see each other again.

Rep Power: 0 The sad truth is most shows are like that. V8less nights is probally the worst, esp when they held it in Northlands Sportex which is not good because it was hot, muggy, and too much sound echo.

Rep Power: 0 It was still a good time tho. Met alot of people, seen alot of nice cars, and got a few ideas for my own.
I said it before tho, I didn't expect to win, but it was a different experience. Would have been nicer if they actually had more than just pizxza there for purchase.

Rep Power: 762 and glad to see you liked my car bluewolf didn't see you come over and look at it though, maybe I was elsewhere
btw in the sound competition I took 1st place in USACi SQ Consumer 601+, 1st place in dB Drag Bass Race 119.9dB and down, 2nd place in dB Drag Street A, so not a bad haul for me at all

Rep Power: 762 SCN here was pretty good, however after seeing DTP in Calgary I don't think I will be entering DTP Vancouver
and wolf I might be out there later in the year for another show, probably Calgary so we can meet up then... I don't come out there often (it's a helluva drive) but when I do it's always a good time

Rep Power: 0 Yeah, I'm not sure if I'll make it back to Calgary this year or not. I damaged my car on the way out Friday, so I have some work to do. If I do come out again, the car will be on the back of a trailer as to avoid the damn roads.

Rep Power: 0 Should have added that this was the first time I had the car on the highway since it was modified so I wanted to see how it handled, and it handled really nice actually.

Rep Power: 762 this was the biggest road trip I have done with my car... granted my car is stock externally except for the wheels, so I did not expect any problems. It handled the trip really well. On top of the 950 km's that I did the night before to make it to Calgary, we did about 900 to Williams Lake, BC the next day to officiate another show, then another 550 or so back home fun times

Rep Power: 762 I remember looking at mr. pink shirt's install and i was thinking I've seen it before, but couldn't put a finger on it... then reading PASmag today, i saw the SAME install in a different 7th gen from Calgary, I guess he bought the install off the guy... oh well, it was bugging me so I thought I would say MYSTERY SOLVED!

Rep Power: 0 Grin, oh well. What ever happened to origionality counting for something in these shows? I mean, everyone has the same thing... Motorized in dash DVD, usually more people have the cheapo racing seats, painted this, stitched that... Dunno, I think maybe I expected more...
Just my opinion tho.
