Magic- I told myself not to go to any car shows until my Chevy is back roadworthy, I went to one last weekend in New Jersey that was badass, but your show was alot of fun last year. Keep me posted on what you decide and if I don't hear from you I'll holler at you Monday.

Sam Navarro

 

Sam, Forgot about the holiday but was out of town anyway my daughter had some car trouble so had to handle that will call you tomorrow Tue.

Metal Flake Drive In is proud to announce that after a few months off to create new music, Sam Navarro & the Lone Star Devils will perform thier new music along with old favorites Saturday October 23, be the first to hear there new stuff.......

Welcome Sam Navarro & the Lone Star Devils.....

 

OK we are going to start making annoucements of special events and happenings at the show, so figured this would be first and give everyone time to prepare.

We will be holding much the anticipated championship "VALVE COVER RACES". We will have two classes kids 13 and under and 14 and up. then a championship race of champions classes. If your not sure what a valve cover race is it pretty much like a pinewood derby but with a automotive valve cover, paint them, chrome them, be as creative as you can just have fun with it, or build a couple with your kids. it will be fun

Reminder for the Friday morn crowd, hope everyone has a great weekend ahead.

 

Do you have a schedule of what is going on at the show for Saturday, and what is going on Sunday. There some of us that might only be able to make it out one day. Thanks alot

 

The majority of biger events will be Sat, Headline band, Cruise, pinup contest, and assorted games and several other events, Sunday few events, games, and awards. have not wrote all in stone just yet had a few late come on board so tweaking a little bit but Saturday is allways the biggest day, either way expecting a great show and plenty to do

 

What time does this thing start on Saturday and what is it going to cost?

 

real low turn out...

Sam Navaro was Awesome though!

 

I was disapointed more cars didn't show up. We left around three to go to the Highway Horrors party, more cars may have showed up later. Nice place for a show, however. The weather was cool, nice breeze. Sam and the boys were great, I don't know why they had him play at noon. The cow that got loose and ran by was funny!

 

I was dissapointed also. I don't understand why the swap meet and spectator parking was in the grass and the show was in the dirt parking lot. Sam Navarro was good though. I'm glad they caught the cow before someone's car got hoof prints on the hood.

 

I was real disappointed in this show. Last year there were plenty of trees and cement. This year there was no shade and plenty of dirt it was like parking in a dust bowl. I also don't know why they hid all the cars behind the pavilion in the dirt on a windy day and let all the spectators and the swap meet be in the grass. There were maybe 50 cars total that showed up and I think most were gone by 3. I am glad that atleast they had Sam Navarro play and gave free tshirts and striped plaques for the registered cars so it wasn't a total waste of time. Plus it put me on that side of town for the Highway Horrors party later on in the day and that thing was a blast. Next year I will just skip this one and go straight to the HH party. But this is just my .02

 

Hey Guys First off I want to say I am sorry for a lot of the confusion and and most was out of my control when we booked the grounds we were supposed to be the only event there and they completely destroyed the 30 acres of parking and we had to try to adapt to a lot of stuff way beyond our control and will fix all the problems we had we had less than a week to address the parking lot being dug up, and three other events being thrown into the mix. Sam set the schedule to play and time so we went with what he wanted and he did an excellent show. we did end up with a decent turn out of 173 cars but rain got several in Houston, and they cancelled, I am in no way making excusses and understand all your input, and appreciate it, we had way more surprises than could be expected, and did not plan on giving up half the grounds for stupid stuff but we tried to adapt the best we could. Guys please email me [email protected] with any sugestions or ideas how we can improve and next year there will be no conflicts and 99% of the problems we had will not be an issue.
I do want your input and sugestions, just please understand the spectator and swap meet had to be put out in the front because of all the was going on in the back and no parking lot for any of it. Thanks guys for coming out we will resolve all problems with grounds and have a much better show next year.

Tha wounded Warrior project car that will be built and given to a wounded soldier that had to give his up from injuries or finacial problems from rehab was the focus and raised a good bit of money for them, and the Patriot Guard Riders who escort fallen soldires to their funeral really appreciated all of your support.

Please Email me or call the shop [email protected] 281.286.2106 and give us your suggestions and opinions for improvement for next year, and any one that want to be involved in the build of the car for the soldier contact me as well.

Thanks
