Sport Compact Nights
Throwing a sport compact car show like Sport Compact Nights in a city that's never had one has both its advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, if the show goes well, you can take pride in saying you have tried and succeeded at doing something that has never been done before. On the other hand, if the show fails, you risk being run out of town and ruining any possibility of hosting a show in this uncharted territory ever again. Or at least until the locals forget just how bad the show was. Overall, just not the "sociable" thing to do. After coming off a successful launch of the tour in Montreal, the bar had been set and the desire to carry that momentum from Montreal over to Halifax was paramount.
Thanks to careful planning, preparation and a ton of help from Elliott LeBlanc of LowMotion.org and Xtreme Motorsports' Lenny Boudreau, the Halifax edition of the BFGoodrich Sport Compact Nights National Tour might just go down as the greatest Team SCP production ever. Despite a change of date and the Nickelback concert one night before, the public showed up in droves, as did some of Atlantic Canada's finest sport compact cars, some from as far as Prince Edward Island.
