There is a street meet on Sat. nights Sam's Club Hwy 6 @ I-10! On some nights there are 50- 75 cars.

Watch the Texas forum, there's posts about events pretty frequently Got a car show in Pasadena coming up next Saturday, for example. https://ls1tech.com/forums/texas-members-54/

Some of the really big shows limit the number of showing-people based on space, some have particular themes you have to fit (classics only, imports only, domestics only, F-bodies only, etc), but AFAIK, for most of 'em all you have to do is sign up, pay any entrance fees (which often goes all to buying lots of plaques/awards, or is donated to a charity), and show up

It helps to make a posterboard with information about your car. And I've heard that at many shows it doesn't matter if your car isn't really special/unique/expensive (so don't worry about not being 'worthy'), instead judges tend to look for thorough cleaning/detailing - check out the Appearance forum for plenty of tips about that: https://ls1tech.com/forums/forumdisp...aysprune=&f=18
