Event Coverage NorCal KnockOut Round 4, July 6th, 2013

In 12 hours we will be at the fairgrounds preparing for one fun day! Looking forward to seeing some very nice cars!

 

Is it true the first one in line at the not reg gate 4 and is wearing last years show shirt gets in free!

 

Hahaha! Not very true, but that would have been amazing right?

 

I thought it was just a rumor.

 

I guess you can sleep in a little then Jeff!

 

A few pics...

 

Some more...

 

and...

 

show today was great. best $25 I spent all year! what was the final car count?

 

Im guessing 350...will have to wait for Hank and Korena to get everything counted...the place was packed!

 

Best Knockout yet! Thanks!

 

Thank all of you for attending, it was a FUN SHOW! We had about 400 cars! Looking forward to next year already. Trying to make a little cruise - party - band thing happen the day before the show next year!

 

Was a great time, had my partially off topic 40 Ford Pickup there. Great tunes, food and people. Thanks to all that made it happen.

 

Great show, cool cars, nice people, awesome bands. It was a fun day!

 

Goodtimes with good people! Can't wait until next year! Anymore pics?

 

Better deal than spectating, $30 for me and the ole lady with parking.

Next year I'll push my heap there if I have to. Great show and got some good tech pointers too.

 

Same for me... mine represented in the parking lot because it has "OT" wheels on it... but it didn't look like show officials were enforcing like they did last year because I saw a LOT (A L O T !!!) of modern "billet"-type wheels in the show this year. If I had known they weren't going to enforce, I'd have saved some money by parking in the shade inside the show instead of just spectating.

 

This year, after numerous conversations, it was decided that we were to make our decisions at the entry gate based solely on the current NCKO website vehicle requirements...
No Jeeps, No Donks, No Modern wheels to exceed 17" diameter, no monster trucks, off roads, no VW's or other European made cars. No hi- tech rides, fenderless IFS sporting street rods. No new Indians, Buell, Big Dog or West Coast Chopper ' OCC style bikes.

Pretty much a slightly relaxed version of the guidelines we used when we ran the gate at Billetproof for 6 years.
This gives a good mix of vehicles while still adhering to the nostalgia theme and I honestly don't think it hurt the show at all...

 

I have no problems with the rules of the venue... which is why I parked in the lot. The only point to my comment above was that the rules were "lax" enough such that I COULD HAVE p***ed. I visit the show so I can see traditional non-billeted vehicles (again, why I didn't try to bring mine in).

And I enjoyed the show.

 

I totally understood what you where saying, I just wanted to put the current criteria out there again for all to see.
Its difficult to convey the intent of the criteria on paper since its subject to interpretation and unfortunately this years "softening" decision didn't help much with that.
Hopefully you will choose to bring your car in next year, Im betting that you weren't the only one out there who left thinking, "Damn, I could have gotten in".
Glad that you enjoyed the show!

 

Here is some pictures from the show..Story coming up in Ol Skool Rodz, Hot Rod De Luxe and Gasoline Magazine in the near future!

 

Hank & Korena, Thanks again for a nice show.

 

No, thank YOU for coming. Amazing vehicle my friend. Best of luck at the salt with the roadster.
I'll try to swing by shortly to ******** a little!

 

Great show. The LBCC crew had a blast. Thanks for all the hard work.
