Show was okay. The highlight of the night...cars getting pulled over left and right after people rolled out. That undercover green 98+ Honda Accord that pulled over a few cars was pretty insane.

I cant believe the pulled a bunch of you guys over while leaving the show. This whole crackdown things is out of control, I mean are they going to wait outside every auto show like that? Sorry about the state ref tickets....

Luckily mine and Solo's car were the first ones out and got the cars home before the whole fiasco started. Came back to see 4 cars in a row with popped hoods, pulled over by two marked police cars and a Honda Accord We cruised around town to see this happening everywhere.

what bothers me the most is the fact that the City of San Jose knew of this event. They knew that we would bring a lot of revenue in for the city. I guess they just decided that they needed extra revenue. This is the last time that I will be seen in the city of San Jose for any type of auto enthusiast event.
Here is the best part. When my friend and I were waiting in my car for the cop to write my ticket, this female cop was on the radio with the other officers. Here is what she said VERBATIM, "Hey send some guys to market street. They're all exiting the halls in that direction."
wtf. Seriously.

oh man, are you really thinking that these pull-overs and tickets are only for the better of the environment? please.... is it to make sure people drive well? please..... i have been in car shows, and while there are always (surprise) some idiotic kids doing stunts, MAJORITY of the group are very well behaved, they drive slow, carefully, cautious, and considerate. but then of course you get such a poor city in needs to make quick cash. i strongly believe they knew this event coming and take advantage of it to make some serious cash
