3rd Annual Tufts Auto Show!

Hey everyone, this year the Tufts University car club will be having our third annual car show. It will be more or less the same format of last year but with a big addition we've been working for, a BURNOUT CONTEST!

Location:
Cousens Gym Parking Lot
161 College Avenue
Medford, MA 02155

Date/Time:
Sunday April 19th
We're working on finding a rain date that works...
Open at 12:00 PM
Car entry closes at 2 PM or when parking lot fills
Trophies around 2:30-3:00 PM

Price:
- Free to Spectate
- $10 dollars to Participate
- $5 if in pre-registered groups of 5 or more(e-mail me to pre-register)
- $5 if Tufts University Student/Faculty/Alumni(must present ID card)

Trophies:
We will be holding a popular vote for a variety of categories, a few best burnout awards, as well as some Tufts Auto club awards. These have not been finalized yet but the list will be updated in a few days.

Events:
This year we have finally gotten approval for a burnout competition! Enter your tire-smoker for some fun and prizes. More to come on this soon...

Food:
We will have food vendors at this event so no one will go hungry.

Sponsors/Vendors
If you are interested in becoming a sponsor or vendor to the show please contact me at Andrew.Nelson@Tufts.edu for further details.

Any questions or comments should be e-mailed to me as well and they will be promptly replied to.

SEE YOU THERE!

That is the same date as the UCONN car show. They usually have about 600 cars there. Is there any chance you can change the date? It might give you a better turnout.

The UCONN show was the first thing I checked to see when theirs was because I knew a conflict would not work out well and I tried but this is the only date my school's administration would give me(other than Easter Sunday the 12th) so I had to do this one.

I know we won't have 600 cars or anything like that but we should have around 125-150 based on initial estimates and past years. The big thing that we have that they will not(as far as I know), is the burnout contest at the end which should be a great time.

Honestly, both shows should be fun and exciting in their own ways. I'm biased towards telling you to come to ours at Tufts but I don't want to be stealing from UCONN because they have a great car club as well.

Hope to see you there!

although uconn does not have a burnout contest, we do have a loudest car contest and there will be corner scales there so people can weight their cars.

Bump...

Yes there are multiple car shows on that date but unfortunately we don't have many dates to work with the administration on so we're stuck with this one. I hope to see some of you out there.
