Hey guys, just lettin you all know that the CCSU Car Club's fall show will be on Sunday, October 14th this year. This will be another charity benefit for the FSMA. For those who don't know, that is the charity that Jonathan at Bristol Dyno's daughter Emma benefits from. This fall the show will be a little different, less of a show, more of a meet, but there will still be awards. Right now, the categories are:
Homecoming King –Best in Show
Queen- Best Female Driven Car
Most Likely To Succeed = Most Balanced Performance Car
Class Jock = Most Powerful Car
Class Geek = Most High Tech Car
Biggest Flirt = Most enticing or sexy car
Class Bully = Truck
Shop Class Award = Muscle Car
C3 Award= Sleeper
Club Award
4cyl Award
6cyl Award
8cyl Award
This fall's theme will be Homecoming, as the show is during homecoming weekend. Also, this year it will take place in Kaiser Lot (the big one next to the football field) in efforts to avoid the clusterf*ck that parking has been in the past. As usual we will have some innovative events, I think we'll be saving the car smash until the spring show, but we will have some other cool events this fall. Hope to see all of you there!

The UConn Car Club invites you to our first ever Fall Car Meet. This is not a show, but rather a laid-back get-together for auto enthusiasts of every variety. This event is a fundraiser for us, as this year's spring show was inconvenienced by rain. Come support us by attending this event so that we can make the upcoming spring show our best show ever!
What you need to know:
Date
Saturday, October 13, 2007
Rain Date Sunday, October 14
Location
UConn W-Lot, Storrs Campus
Storrs Road (Rt. 195)
Storrs, CT 06269
(see map below)
Time
Gates Open @ 10am
Hang out all day!
Price
Free to spectate
$5 to participate
If you participate, you will receive a voucher for a reduced spring show entry fee.
Other Info
This is a meet/get-together, as opposed to a show. There will not be judging, but there will be three trophies awarded:
-Best Sleeper
-Best Club
-UC3 Favorite Car
Like our shows, however, there will be events, raffles, contests, etc... It's a great place to get together, take some pictures with the fall foliage in the background, and just enjoy the nice weather.
Bragging Rights
For those of you have yet to witness one of our events, we tend to amass some of the greatest diversity among cars under one name. Anyone who has been to a previous show can attest that there's something for everyone. Check out the pics from past events.
Sponsors/Vendors
If you are interested in being a sponsor of or vendor at the show, please contact us at the e-mail address found below for further details. Donations in the form of raffle prizes would be greatly appreciated.

Honestly UConn's shows feel more like import shows then CCSU's do. We tend to get a large variety from all genre's of car enthusiasts. I'd love to go to the fall meet but I'm not going to have my car that weekend so it's basically up to Chris or Tony cuz wherever they go I wanna hitch a ride:laugh: .

I don't think we've established a meeting place but we should. I'm already up obviously and I'm going to wash my car shortly so I'll be good to go any time after the show starts.
