Capital Car Show was a Big Hit

Sometimes when you do marketing you never know what you are going to get out of it. Well the Capital Car Show. Capital City Speedway was there representing the Speedway and the Dragway, with 2 Drag Cars and 4 Stock Cars. Our display had to have been the most popular one there, as our booth was fully interactive. Our doors were open and everyone was welcome to get in a race car and experience it perhaps for the very first time. It was  a big hit with the kids and adults alike. Our biggest smile came from a senior citizen, and we will just leave it at that, who got into my Drag car and had to have had the biggest smile of the day. She thanked us for putting on such a great display and allowing anyone into the vehicles. It was the highlight of her day, along with many others.

All customers into the show got a $ 5.00 off coupon to use this year for one of our shows, and over 4000 coupons were handed out. I think everyone who came in came by our booth and got to see first hand some of the cars that run there. Some have not heard of CCS, some had not been there since their Dad took them there over 20 years ago, but made it clear that it was about time that they took their son to the races. Overall, it was a successful show and hopefully we created a few more new fans.

Thanks go out to a lot of people who helped make this show possible. We could not have put on such a great show without them. Thanks to go Al Dickie, AJ Dickie, Kevin Foisy, Brent Egan, Justin, Sean and John Holtom, Pam and Twitch LePoivedin, Brian "Motormouth" Goudge, Connor Gow and Thundercat. Thanks to show organizers Dave Brown and Larry Way for making it possible for us to go in the show.

 

Plans are under way to have another Ottawa Classic and Custom Car Show next year, which will be even better, and you can bet we will be there again.
