Saturday, Oct 20th Car Show @ Kil-Kare

Recommended Posts

During Street Life Tour some Greene County deputies approached me about having my car in their first car/truck/bike show to benefit the Greene County F.O.P. I told them I would. I invite any interested CR folks to come along.

 

Registration: 10:00 a.m. to noon

Prizes awarded at 4:00 p.m.

 

Kil-Kare Raceway in Xenia, Ohio (1166 Dayton-Xenia Road)

 

Prizes in Best Overall, Best Paint, Best Engine Bay, and many more

 

They will be selling food, there's a 50/50 raffle, door prizes, silent and live auctions

 

If you want to convoy down with me, your registration is already paid. I plan to leave Cars & Coffee at Lennox Cup o' Joe around 9:30 a.m. for those who want to go together.

 

If you arrive on your own, it's $10 to register. Spectators free.

 

Post or PM general questions to me.

 

Show-specific questions can go to Deputy Shawn Prall, 937-414-3759 sprall16@yahoo.com

Thats not a bad deal DOC. I'm gonna have to think about that one. I was plannin on being deep into some more "special" things on Joes FD, but that does sound tempting.

 

In any case, have a great time w/o me if I cant make it.

 

PS: What are you takin anyway?

Now the weatherman's flipping the forecast to rain on Saturday. I guess I'll just have to see what it looks like Saturday morning and go with that.

 

It'd be great if you can head out with us, Kevin. I expect this will be a somewhat small but friendly gathering (since it's their first car show), but the cops and deputies are promising a fun family time. My plan is to take the Bentley.

 

If the weather's sketchy Saturday when I go to Cars & Coffee, then I'll call the organizers while we're still at Cup o' Joe to confirm that they're going ahead with the show before we drive to Xenia.

Since it's still looking like a decent chance for rain Saturday morning (but clearning in the afternoon), I phoned the organizer of the event to ask if it's going on, rain or shine. Definitely, yes, I was told.

 

I'll leave at 9:30 from Lennox Cars & Coffee. You're welcome to join me. I'm bringing drying towels and some cleaning supplies to spiff up the car at the show if the weather breaks.

I went by myself to this event today but had a great time anyway.

 

Because the day started out rainy, there were very few spectators or participants besides the Greene County first responders, but they made me feel welcome. They gave me some great tactical kit for coming over, and my registration ticket won me a $100 gas card. :) The food was good and there were some good deals with the auctions for donated goods.

 

Based on the sampling I saw, my sterotypes were mostly re-inforced.

 

Firemen like big trucks (black or red)

City police like old customs and 70's muscle cars

Police captains like old school luxury

And the deputies had to have LSx's or LT1's to be happy, and they love doing burnouts

Next year they plan to have it earlier in the fall, and they said that they would love to have more Columbus Racing people join them. I'll keep you posted.
