Our 2015 show is now in the history books. It was an incredible weekend. The hospitality room was buzzing both Friday and Saturday nights, and the biggest turnout ever on Saturday; our show gate was a whopping 55% increase over 2014, prior to that we had slow but steady increases every year. Thanks to everyone for making it such an epic event. From our guests who arrived from all corners of the US and one from the UK, to all the ACME members, some of whom were at the show before 5 AM Saturday to help with final table setup, to our vendors who also contribute a huge amount to the enjoyment of everyone who comes through the doors. Please share your photo albums on this page!
We had 787 models on display built by 146 entrants. The quality of the models on display was off-the-charts. To hear the best builders complementing us for having a show superior to the best contests in the country, regardless that our show isn’t a traditional contest nor a “pure” NNL is heartwarming. We put in a huge effort to make this show the best, most fun event for both enjoying seeing the best model cars, but also the people behind them. We have the best builders eagerly showing off their best models, and it’s just incredible to see them all in one place, and to see everyone having such a great time. We start immediately on planning our 20th anniversary show next year on November 12th.
