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 carshow@battleoftheimports.com.

I'd like to go. I cant find info on entering. Just show up? Sign up? Fee?

1QWKLEX

Yeah it's strange how you can't find anymore information on entering the show/race. Their website has no such information and what I've gathered, alot of people can't even get ahold of them.

NAiL05

Maybe the event might get cancelled? Forecasts no good? I dunno thats just wierd. Or they just have crappy staff.

1QWKLEX

It's definately not cancelled since it's still up on the Texas Motorplex calender for 6/27. I guess everyone will just have to show up at Ennis to register.
