The crew behind Eurokracy really  know how to produce a car show, as proven year after year. But what makes a car show so great? How do you so carefully balance all of the different ingredients of a show? Unfortunately I think the guys at Eurokracy are keeping that under wraps, but the answer happens to be right in front of you if you’re at the show and look around.

From lapping sessions on Circuit ICAR to tire slaying in the burnout box, and Accuair’s Neckbreakers limbo competition in-between, there’s really something for everyone, and at no point throughout the weekend did it seem like there was a dull moment. Parking the cars along the banks of the track meant for a truly unique photographic experience, versus the usual grass field, poorly lit convention center, or blacktop parking lot. To top things off, a selection of really great merchandise and design makes fore the perfect takeaway.

We teamed up with our friends at JRP, based in Toronto, to represent the Vossen brand, and a few friends from New Hampshire brought out their Vossen-equipped cars for the booth. Chris’ E60 wagon on VLE-1s and Sam’s Tiguan on our new Vossen x Work series wheels made for a great duo in the booth while FP’s Mk6 R36 tore up some tires in the burnout box.

So what’s the bottom line? Mark your calendars for Eurokracy next year, because it’s not a show to be missed!
