----------------------------------------------------------

The Battle of the Imports offers a competitive carshow series with numerous awards available to imports, sport compacts, late model domestics, trucks and SUV's. Competitors can compete for HUGE 6-foot trophies, bragging rights and a chance to be featured in national magazines such as but not limited to: Super Street, Import Tuner, Performance Auto and Sound and others.

The Battle of the Imports was the first to nationally televise a car show. During the 2001 and 2002 season, carshow competitors from all over the country were featured on the Battle of the Imports show, "Mothers Polishes Import Auto Tour," which aired on Speedvision. During 2003, carshow competitors were again featured on the Battle of the Imports show, "Extreme Imports," which aired on TNN. This past year, carshow competitors were featured in multiple shows, "Street Tuner Challenge," which aired on Speed TV.

In addition to the drag racing and carshow action, the Battle of the Imports features other lifestyle segments at select venues such as the Import Tuner swimsuit competition, burn out contest, an interactive vendors midway, live performances, DJ battles, and much more.

Listed below are the current classes offered for 2009. If you have any questions concerning the show classes or special requests such as reserved car club parking, please feel free to email [email]carshow@battleoftheimports.com[/email].

I tried emailing them, and no response...
 
 
Hey I still need to pm you the info you requested

Typically shows at Texas Motorplex have roll in & registration the morning of.  Not 100% sure what times, but gates usually open anywhere from 8-10am for car show.

Anyone else going?

Think I'm gonna roll down with Gio.. by the way, Jose is finishing up on my front bumper.. really impressed with his work.

Oh nice...didn't know you were getting work done over there.  Yeah he'll do a great job.

picked it up today.  Really impressed with it.  Nice guy to boot.  Working on a R33 and one of your teammates orange silvia.    Cool stuff.

i would like more info, as to roll in times, judging times, when the show ends.

passing on this one.
 
Hey joe, hows that Houston Sessions show turn out? thinking about heading out that way in August.

it should be a good turn out. but you'll have to register soon because they only have limited spots. 
Its a night show btw.
