Nightshift's third 2008 event was filled with almost 20,000 car crazy fans, drift fanatics, thrill seekers, models and concert fans. This show was packed and was easily one of the best shows of 2008 to date. Everyone was impressed with the Boost Mobile Freestyle MX crew. The first reaction is disbelief when they see these guys jumping more than 30 feet in the air and LETTING GO of their bikes. They do this, and more, repeatedly throughout the night. You have to see this! There is also the Valvoline Mobile Dyno that checks the "wheel" horsepower of a couple dozen performance show cars live at the show. Both are real crowd pleasers.
This event also was the first stop of the "GHOSTBUSTERS' ECTO-1 Tour". Yes, it's THE car from Ghostbusters. It is being shown around the country (mostly at HIN and Nightshift events) to promote the expected Fall release of the new "Ghostbusters: The Video Game". There were also go-go dance performances and music performances by Casadon, Jim Jones and the Search for Miss HIN 2009 contest. Overall, there was so much going on it would take almost 2 days to see and do everything.
The next stop on the Nightshift 2008 Tour is in Concord, North Carolina on July 12. If you cannot make that one, make sure you check out the schedule on hotimportnights.com for an event coming to your area soon.
