Feeler: 2003 Autowerks Summer BBQ at Evosport

Thinking of the 3rd bigger and better Summer BBQ...

Since this seems to be a good idea for the two prominent shops to join forces and offer an unforgettable experience...

What: AUTOWERKS 3rd ANNUAL SUMMER BBQ
When: Sunday, June 29, 2003
Where: EVOSPORT (proposed location)


Doing this spontaneous effort as a good will gesture. All car makes are invited...

Here are the Signed Up and Confirmed Boards / or have expressed Interest at the moment:

SOCALEURO
SOCALAUDI
SOCALVW
CALLANDRA
DTMPOWER
BMWPLANET
CSPORTCOUPE
BNZSPORT

Food, Prizes, Giveaways and Treats to be fully sponsored by AUTOWERKS.

I think we can expect about 400 - 500 or more cars this time...

What do you guys think?

Since I was planning to come down to this get-together in a caravan with 20-25 of the Import Tuna crew, and I've never been to the evosport shop, I think that this would be a great idea!

Maybe we could have a tour of the facilities and some technical workshops with some of evosport's product line. I've seen lots of the work in the magazines, so this would really be something exciting.

Look forward to it!

Reading all the good things that Evosport has to offer from national publications, I am pretty sure that Evosport will be more than excited to give a tour of their highly publicized operation and facilities.

It will be an awesome visit and experience, and their staff could perhaps provide technical presentations about current projects and products that they have to offer.

I am looking forward to this myself, and I hope that Evosport will not be opposed to host the 3rd Annual Autowerks Summer BBQ for 2003.

Count me in on this one. I'm definitely in for sure since Santa Ana is not that bad. And hopefully my project will be finished by then.

No problem James! We have a very strong following in the first 12 hours that this post was published... and Brad has agreed to host this event at their facilities.

Uh... will there be enough space for everyone? I thought Santa Ana was only their business office?

I say you all roll down south and cruise Santa Ana and see the lovely neighborhood. LOL! Orale Homes.

You are right, our only public locations are in Vegas and HB. We will be in our new place though by then so all will change.

Thanks
