Omaha's EXTREME Car & Truck Show 2011
The 7th Annual Omaha Extreme Car and Truck Show – at The Digz, May
14/15.
A little over 7 years
ago Randy Strunk, a veteran independent manufacturer representative,
suggested to mobile electronics retailers in Omaha to join together to raise
consumer awareness of mobile electronics in the area. Needless to say the
initial reaction from the retailers was a high degree of skepticism.
After several
meetings a deal was hammered out among four area retailers-Stereo
West Autotoys, Inphase Car Audio, Metro Audio Dynamics and
Nebraska Furniture Mart's Mobile Entertainment division. Strunk's firm,
Creative Sales and Marketing, was and remains a driving force as the group
readies for the 7th anniversary of the Omaha Extreme Car and Truck Show
on the weekend of May 14th and 15th.
During a recent
conversation Strunk told 12voltnews.com, "Last year the attendance was
nearly 5500. This year we have started promotional activities earlier and
added more significant venues to
increase visibility and we feel that this could be the year that the crowds
surpass 7000.”
Make A Wish
foundation
will once again be a major focus point of the event this year.
Several vendors are teaming up along with area retailers to give away
thousands of dollars in door prizes both days to send 3 year old Jack and
his family to “Disney World” to complete his wish!
The goal is to collect $7500 in donations to make this wish
happen. The attitude of the
retailers has been amazing as they see the possibilities to give back to
their community in a special way other than just through a normal store
promotion.
In addition to the
Car and Truck Show, USACi
Sound Off event and world class
demo vehicles from leading manufacturers like JBL, Orion, Kicker,
Rockford Fosgate, JL Audio, TREO, MTX, JVC and Pioneer; a
6 on 6 Co-ED Volleyball
Tournament and OMAHA NIGHTHAWKS
Cheerleaders and Mascot will certainly build attendance.
The
ROCK-N-REV Show concert will take
place both days of the show in the afternoon. Featured will be the hottest
young band out of the Midwest, “Cold Steel”. “These kids can lay it
down, Trust me!” says
Omaha's local RC Car Club will host demonstrations and invites anyone to bring their RC
car and run it on the fun course that will be set up in a portion of the
parking lot at The Digz.
The Omaha based
SYSTEMATIC KAOS stunt motorcycle team will be back performing many
cool tricks on stunt bikes both days.
Sublime Speed
Technology will be providing the DYNO
SHOOTOUT to “Test your driving skills” on a provided vehicle for a
nominal charge and a chance to win prizes in the parking lot of the Digz
both days.
Many other supporting Vendors will be present like Red Bull and their
vehicle, the U.S. Army with their H3 Hummer, Omaha Marine with a “Decked
–Out“ boat to check out, Meguiar’s Car Care Products and much, much more!
Sponsoring vendors

Kenwood, dB Research, MTX, JL Audio, Kicker, TREO, DUB, Audison/Hertz,
Bazooka, Rockford Fosgate, Orion, JBL, Vizualogic, Viper, Python, Clifford,

year's recipient again is the “Make a Wish” Foundation.
