The trip from Sioux Falls, SD to Charlotte, NC is not a short distance by any means and when Daniel found out I was traveling the distance with my homies he somehow suckered me into taking some snaps for him of this years IA Summer Meet.  Import Alliance consistently has been growing in leaps and bounds and with them having to move the location of their summer meet this year I myself was worried the attendance would drop drastically simply due to moving it further east than year past.  Don Napier, founder of the Import Alliance meets knows what he’s doing and saw only slight drop in attendance as they filled up damn near the entirety of the zMAX Dragway parking area and VIP/Vendor Area under the grandstands giving meet attendees a large variety of styles and cars to drool over.  This is the second Summer Meet I’ve been to now, being from the upper midwest it’s rare for us to see the caliber of builds that roll out to the national meets so it’s inspiring to see them first hand.
