Must Register To Attend The 5th Annual Spring Festival Saturday March 20, 2010 Click www.socallx.com to register for the 2010 Spring Festival WHAT IS THE SPRING FESTIVAL? The Spring Festival of LX's has its roots in Southern California as an enthusiast gathering for the hottest car platform to hit the American car market in years. While our first meet in 2004 consisted of only 4 vehicles, our next few meets in 2005 quickly grew to approach 100 vehicles. Starting in 2006, we kicked it up a notch and surpassed 300 vehicles with participants from all over the US and Canada. This event has grown every year since and we now expect over 700 vehicles for the 2010 Spring Festival of LX's. This event, by far, is the largest gathering of LX/LC owners anywhere. As a community and enthusiast event, we have the tremendous support of Chrysler/Dodge and have had many Executives from both the local Irvine office as well as Auburn Hills. This event will be the largest and greatest event to date. Pass the word on and let's show everyone who we are and have over 800 in attendance. For the latest updates go to www.socallx.com. Why you want to attend SF5: We are all members of the forums because of the passion we have for these cars. So we post photos of our cars, our mods and ask questions about our cars. Spring Festival is where you will see it all and meet those who help us find the answers to our questions. You can see it all first hand and talk directly to members that you have become friends with on line. You may be a senior member or a newbie, have a full blown modified car or a totally stock car, it makes no difference to us. If it will be your first event you will not believe how great the people are. If you don't bring your car we don't care, someone in the group will give you a ride. This is an experience of a life time and those who return year after year will tell you so. That's why they post and encourage everyone to attend. Hope to see you there.
