2010 LX & Beyond Nationals (OH) July 17-18

[turbobuckeye]

Thank you everyone for your patience!!! We had to delay the 17th update a few days to sort out some details but without further ado....here's the latest news!!!


We are pleased to announce that the LX & BEYOND NATIONALS has joined the East Coast Modern Street Hemi Shootout Series for the 2010 Racing Season. The point series has been organized by Builder Bill, FlyByU and lou1355.

We think this is a great idea and honored to have the invitation extended to us to be a part of it. This means all GEN III 5.7 and/or 6.1 based HEMI vehicles will be eligible to compete in the heads-up points series which began in Bradenton, FL earlier this month and will conclude at Atco Raceway in November. We look forward to seeing ALL competitors from across the country that want to have a weekend of fun lining up head-to-head with some of the leading GEN III HEMI vehicles in the country. Even if you are not racing, come out to support and cheer on your favorite forum member, modern Mopar or performance shop.

Thank you again to Lou, Bill and Dan for taking the initiative on organizing the points series. Keep an eye out on post #1-6 for updates on rules and regulations for the points series.

Anybody that does not want to race heads-up and enjoys bracket racing competition you will not be left out of the action. In addition, to the heads-up racing we will continue to host the bracket racing classes for you. I know there are some folks out there looking forward to defending their 2009 titles and we are looking forward to seeing you as well.

Last but not least, the carshow competition will also return for the 2010 season and details will be coming soon on the classes available for those of you interested in competing for awards and prizes. Without a doubt, this is gonna be a busy and fun-filled weekend for all of you able to attend!


In case you missed the announcements, once again would we like to thank the following sponsors for their support: PARAMOUNT PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS, BILLET TECHNOLOGY, and SPARKPLUGS.COM. More announcements on the way!!!


Team SRT is planning to be in attendance for their 2nd year in a row. Last year we saw the Viper-powered Challenger in-person. You will want to be here to see what goodies they bring out to the event this year!!!

2010 LX & BEYOND NATIONALS - THE CARAVANS

Good way to find out who else in your area or state is thinking about the event is to get those caravan threads started. Its never too early to start planning even if you don't have the specific route and time yet.

One person would not have to be in charge of the entire caravan (unless they want to) just the section that starts at their location. Really good idea too for sponsors that have shops in the cities that caravans pass thru. (hint! hint!)

Everybody knows those areas/states that always represent BIG but maybe there are some new folks on the board (or lurkers) that have never attended or don't know folks in their area that well. Maybe a caravan is coming through your area or you find out you are not the only one in your town wanting to go.

Here are some ideas:

I-71N Caravan: Louisville > Cincinnati > Columbus > Salem

I-70E Caravan: Illinois > Indiana > Dayton > Columbus > Salem

I-90E Caravan: Indiana > Toledo > Cleveland > Salem

I-90W Caravan: New York > Cleveland > Salem

I-80W Caravan: New Jersey > Pensylvania > Salem

I-75N Caravan: Florida > Georgia > Tennessee > Kentucky > Cincinnati > Columbus > Salem


New caravan threads started this week:

Caravan 3: > LxReJx to Salem, OHIO - Lead Contact: AndrewWK

Caravan 4: > Columbus, OHIO to Salem, OHIO - Lead Contact: ytown87

Caravan 5 (a): > Northeast/Mid-Atlantic to Salem, OHIO - Lead Contact: pjs1965

Caravan 5 (b): > Northeast/Mid-Atlantic to Salem, OHIO - Lead Contact: pjs1965

Caravan 6: > LXoM to Salem, OHIO - Lead Contact: BadazBee-423


2010 is gonna be !

Lot's of updates coming up over the next few weeks on LX & Beyond Nationals - Dodge | Chrysler Car Show. Keep an eye there for news as well as your favorite forum.

Current Caravans/Convoys have been added for everyone to see: 2010 LX & BEYOND: THE CARAVANS

***If you or anybody you know is organizing a caravan let me know and we will be sure to add it. Many people have emailed me asking if there is a caravan in their area or rolling thru their area so once you start that thread you may be surprised at the number of folks that show up. There are non-forum LX & Beyond attendees that are waiting for the opportunity to be apart of the drive to LXNATS 2010.

***Hotel rooms are starting to fill-up so don't wait too long to reserve yours.
