Performance World ( Mar. 9-11, 2007 )

Right off the bat I have to say this was the best Performance World to date. The number of high quality cars on display made the show worth the price of admission ($18). Gary Challice and everyone involved with the show should be proud.

This was the 18th annual "Performance World" custom car show at the international centre located in Toronto. The title sponsor again for 2007 was "Concepts on Wheels".

The 2007 show had many great features and famous people. Some of these included Funkmaster Flex, Herb Martinez, Mackenzie Phillips, Candy Clark & Bo Hopkins from American Graffiti. Special showcases included "Deuces Wild", a display commemorating the 75th anniversary of the 1932 Ford.

As you will be able to see from the pictures from the show, there was a huge number of participants (Maybe 500). The show also included a wide selection vendors from part suppliers & body shops to clubs, race tracks, and more. We tended to stay away from the Funkmaster Flex area (Tuner Cars) and focused mainly on the classic cars and hotrods. HotRodding.ca once again awarded one participant with the "Up & Comer" award. This award is handed out to a participant who is under the age of 25. Unfortunately we forgot to write the name of the winner down and submitted our paper to the show. We continue trying to contact Performance World but to date have not heard back. When we finally receive the proper name and official show numbers will will update this page and notify our members.

So at the ned of the day, the show was great and we can now get ready for summer and all the shows and events that 2007 has to offer. We will be back again at Performance World in 2008!
