Default **Won Best of show at MODShow** Many Pics

I just wanted to share this with all of you... We can use some good news...

This past Sunday I went to a show at Miami Homestead Speedway Sponsored by MOD Show and FARA. They had an event called Miami 6 hours.
The event had a Drifting exhibition, 6 hours of racing and MODShow.
I entered the 350Z Roadster and the Spyder to the show...

We were allowed to run 2 laps at the track... man, that felt good !!!



At the end of the show we were awarded:

1st Place Best Import for the 350Z
1st Place Best paint for the Spyder
1st Place Best Bike for the Spyder

and

BEST OF SHOW with the Spyder...

A huge thanks to the people at KEWLMETAL for their support...

Also, thanks to Broward Motorsports for their support.

We were allowed to ride the car and bike in the track for two laps...







KEWLMETAL Model - A lot of people passed by to see the bike, but also the model She was actually answering a lot of the questions about the bike !





Nissan 350Z Roadster - Awarded Best Import



Setting up...



We had some goodies on the table for the people that walked by...



A spectator taking a pic on the bike - She actually went to the show riding her Harley





The race line up






More Models...





The air show was happening at the same time...







At the dyno ! - 95.2 HP





Then to Victory Lane

Sounds and looks like you had a great time. Thanks for posting all of the pics.

How much banking is in the turns of that track, and what was it like riding on it?

Thanks for the information on the layout of the track. I am sure riding on it had to be a blast as well.
