Default Alpha's Oakbrook Toyota/Scion's Next Icon/ft. Car Wars

Hey CL these are my front and back side of the flier for my upcoming event. If you guys don't know yet, I left Alpha Motors. I am back at Oakbrook Toyota/Scion in Westmont. When I left two years ago, I was one the top Scion Managers in the nation. Ever since I left Oakbrook Toyota, Scion sales have plummetted so they made an offer and couldn't refuse This will be my 5th year throwing a party like this and it's gonna be fun. I rented a 5ft. grill to cook up some food for everyone too!

Next Icon is a talent show that consists of various performers from singers, dance crews, and bands competing for Oakbrook Scion's Next Icon. They will be performing on a 25x30ft. stage as well DJ's spinning all day and night. I combined the talent show with the carshow because I felt that carshow tend to get really boring and there is no substance.

Car Wars is the title for carshow part of the event. On the Car Wars flier are the trophy classes as well as the "Best" trophy classes. I don't spare any expense on trophies. $1200 to be exact
Car Wars isn't just another carshow. What I learned from carshows is that none of the crews that attend ever interact with other crews. How bout a competition that involves all the car crews in various activities. Each crew will accumulate points based off each event. The crew with most points gets treated to Buffalo Wild Wings($200 gift card).

Raffle prizes will be given throughout the day. Once again no chincing on prizes either. Being at a big dealer like Oakbrook Toyota, I have alot of vendors that supply cool stuff(Full Leather interior package, remote strarters, full details from Fullers Car Wash and Sudsational) These car details are worth $300 and includes engine bay. I also got Dent Wizard on hand popping out your dents for cheap. I hope to see all my fellow CL Members here and some of the members I haven't met yet! Take care fellas!

I'll definitely try to make it out to this. I'm gonna bring my GS though since I'm doing the 6spd swap in the SC.

Looks like I won't be able to attend this unfortunately. Won't be in IL this weekend which kinda sucks since I really wanted to be there. Sorry.
