I was checking into any more info about this years Driven to Perform show at BC Place Stadium and stumbled upon some bad news. The DTP show is suspended this year due to the global economic situation and the auto industry taking such a big hit. I was really eager to go and see this year’s event and this news is really disappointing to hear but more importantly lots of businesses that were suppose to be at this years show will definetly be affected by this news. Hopefully next year the situation will get better and the Driven to Perform event will be back at BC Place Stadium to inspire and wow future car enthusiasts.

I went to the Vancouver Auto Show today and took some pictures of some vehicles and thought I would share them here.

There are 2 car shows coming up this year that I am excited to go to again. The first one is the Vancouver International Auto Show which is on March 31 to April 5 and the 2nd one is the DriventoPerform event on May 30th. Once again I will take lots of pictures and post them on the site.

As you may have noticed my posts have been very scarce this month as the winter weather slowed things down on my RC D16 Turbo Build and I’m also trying to save money for the machining of the block but after the holidays my budget is really tight. In the last few months the world financial sector has been very shaky which has made me think about tightening my spending habbits but at the same time I believe anything can be achieved if you put your mind into it. I still want to have a Turbo D16 Honda Civic this summer but will see how things turn out so stay tuned to the site for more updates.

Well I’m sorry to say that this years’ Import Invasion Drag Races and Events were cancelled today at 12:45pm, do to very rainy conditions at the race track. This was really disappointing to me because I was really keen on going and seeing some great racing. I had my camera all ready to go when I heard the news, I was a bit cheesed but what can you do, we can’t control the weather. I really hope that they move some schedules around and that they reschedule Import Invasion sometime in July or August so I can get a chance to see some Civic’s racing specially on boost.

The weather seems like it will cooperate on Saturday, so stay tuned to the site for images and possibly some video of the racing down at Mission Raceway. As it looks right now it’s forecasted to be cloudy most of the day on Saturday so hopefully there is a full turn out of all the drag racers and car show fanatics. I was kind of disappointed that there was only 2 EG Civics’ at last weekends Driven to Perform Tour, so hopefully there is a bigger turn out of Honda’s this weekend with lots of EG 92-95 Civics’.

It’s that time of the year again at Mission Raceway Park when the Imports battle it out for the top spot. This Saturday from 12 Noon to 11pm, Honda’s, Acura’s, Toyota’s, Mazda’s, Nissan’s and other makes battle it out for who’s the fastest on the drag strip. There will also be an Import and Sport Compact Show and Shine so come down to Mission Raceway for a full day of Import mania. Click Here for more info at Mission Raceway’s website.
