I think they meant the one on 518/dixie farm. Also 8:30 is a bit late, this gathering normaly thins out at dusk. I haven't been this year yet, so not sure if much has changed. Most of the cars are older muscle cars and their lights don't work very well...

Every Saturday night in the Spring area there is a "Nifty Fifties" car show in the Kroger Parking lot off of Spring Cypress. There are usually lots of old cars from the 50's 60's 70's and 80's and people bring out their newer ones from time to time as well. For the most part though it's old American classics.
