    The Import Showdown returns September 30th and October 1st at Silver Dollar Raceway. If you haven't made it to an
    Import Showdown event, you don't know what you are missing! The Import Showdown is one of the southeast's hottest
    and fastest growing sportsman drag racing events. Our event combines fun, well thought out competitions with Test
    and Tune (open run) passes. This spring our first ever full weekend event drew almost 225 racers, and over 900
    spectators, and paid out and gave away over $3000 in cash, prizes, and giveaways! This event appeals to everyone,
    whether you just want an opportunity to make as many passes as you can make, or you are interested in competitions.
    This event is open to everyone! Any vehicle or bike, import or domestic is welcome to make passes as long as they
    can't meet track safety requirements, you can run any setup. Competition rules based on tire choice, power adders,
    number of cylinders, and other factors. Please see our website for competition rules and classes.
    This Fall - we've expanded our test and tune time! We now offer at least an additional hour of strictly test and
    tune time to Sunday! We've also added test and tune time Saturday night. We've adjusted our competition classes
    slightly to allow those who are more competitive to compete with each other, and those who are just interested in
    'bragging rights' to compete with each other. For spectators we have more giveaways and more entertainment! Saturday
    is going to be a very relaxed evening, with open passes and live entertainment! Sunday will include vendors,
    giveaways, and entertainment.
    Pre-registration open NOW!

    I always look forward to the showdown but I don't think I can make it this year.

    The petit le mans and the chili-cook off at Stone Mountain are the same weekend. No way I can make all three events.

    I hate that it is the same weekend as PLM. By the time we realized it, it was too late.

    From what I could gather, most of the good stuff with PLM will be done by Sunday, so that leaves us with a choice, drag racing or chili? Let's just say, i don't care for chili much anyway. :)

    If some of you don't get to come out this fall, make sure you check with us in the spring, there is going to be a few changes made that should add to some fun for those of us that can't compete with 10 second cars.

    and by the way, Hi Everyone!

    Is it going to be packed??? I'd hate to go all that way to only get a few runs in....
     
  9. Ive gone to Import Showdown 3 years now, and people always get tons of runs in. Each year I get way more than I want to run.
