    For years, I've been doing a VWVortex Show Calendar (link in sig) but there have been times that I want to just put a calendar for general car shows.

    So, without further ado:
    The Car Lounge Calendar!

    Sync with your ipod/itouch, Android, Blackberry, smartphone, outlook calendar or your own google calendar!



    To submit an event, post it here and it'll find it's way into THE CALENDAR

    awesome, added

    anyone have any other shows, events, etc... to add?
    are there any industry shows that are open to the public? any big public auctions? any races that people need to see that aren't big name races?
    c'mon, there's gotta be more interest in this.

    January 27-29 is the 49th Annual Packards International Meet in Orange, CA.
    http://www.packardsinternational.com...ershipMeet.php

    On the same weekend in Pomona, CA the Grand National Roadster Show is going on.

    Those are the shows for this month.

    I'll add a bunch more to the list later which I will be attending this year.
