    I won't bad mouth Wow but as a member of Tri County Thorough Coral club, we had 14 cars that got invited. Two weeks before the show, the WoW organizer call the club president and told him that 14 TCTC club cars were invited in error. The explanation: they are trying to "fresh'n it up" and limit the number of similar cars they had invited to prior shows. This meant we were out of the show.

    I havent been to this in 4 or 5 years. I went down today, 1st time for me at the new building, same stuff as far as I was concerned. Lots of cars that had no bussiness at a show like this in my opinion. I see way better at the track and local cruise's as far as I was concerned. Lots of better cars on here. In general, pretty much a waste of my time and $$'s.

    i have been going to the show strong since i was 5 im now 20 and to tell you the truth anyone who used to go to the old convention center, the wow car shows were amazing their, 3 floors and so many cars, it used to take 3 hours to walk around once. this year was pretty good, about 5 mustangs, not alot of imports, mostly trucks and older cars.

    **but one tof the things that kinda ticked me off was i saw this guy tell his kid to go in a ratrod to take his picture, not stand next to it, the kid actually went in slammed the door once it didnt close; open it again slam it again, was playing with steering wheel dad took pic, the kid came out and everyone was like wtf but no one said anything to them. this isnt the new car show where you go around an test out cars an sit in them...
    sorry i just had to vent.

    There were only 2 fox stangs that I saw. My favorite car was the 68 or 69 (can't remember year) stang that was do a red/copper color done up Chip Foose style. Those types of cars usually arn't my cup of tea, but that stang was sweet.

    I didn't understand what some of the rice boy cars wer doing there, as a few of them were not heavily modded, and they had chap arse stereo systems in them. (The ones my the team NUTZ expedition)
