Where are the Sat night car shows nowdays? Any that U post--have U actually been there lately?

there's one out on Spring Cypress near Telge somewhere. i went a couple weekends ago. there were a buttload of cars. but you can only enter with a 70s or older. they call it the Nifty Fifties car show. there's always a huge turnout from what i've been told.

Otto's is a pretty steady show on the SW side. Not real big, maybe 30 to 50 cars.

I like it because it is close (for me) and not in Houston.

I have been wondering the same thing. I just can not see myself driving 60 miles to some of the places i have heard about. I am in Conroe and would like to see some nice rides hanging out but i do not know of anything close to here.

Here's a complete updated list according to "Crusin Times"-- http://www.cruisintimes.com/ -- mag. just because it is not on here does not men it does not exist-- AND just because it is on here does not mean it does exist either--these are just the ones that they know about. It is a complete list for Texas--I don't have time to go thru and edit out the NON houston area ones--U just have to read thru it.

Anybody remember the name of the car club mainly up north 45--they have/had Sat night meets--we/thirdgen went to one a couple years ago!

Just so you know, the one put on by the Niftee Fiftee's on Spring Cypress is shut down for the holiday season. The last one was two weeks ago and there were 427 cars/trucks that came out.

Even though they don't allow later model cars in, a lot of 80's cars there. I see second gen's every time I go, and quite a few late model cars park right outside the show area.
