Lloydminster Honda is set to host their fourth annual NuffSaid car show on Sept. 21, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
The event, held in the dealership’s parking lot, will feature a variety of attractions including a live DJ, food vendors, raffle prizes and awards. The show is free to attend and aims to bring the community together while promoting road safety.
Ken Prosser from Lloydminster Honda emphasized the importance of the event’s safety component.
“The road course is a really good idea because it highlights the big issue with distracted driving,” said Prosser.
Participants will be able to experience driving with “beer goggles,” simulating impaired driving, as well as attempting to navigate the course while reading a script on their phone.
“Funny thing I’ve noticed is that people are actually worse at the road course with distracted driving over the impaired driving,” said Prosser.
NuffSaid, the main car group in Lloydminster is a local import car group and they are a big part of the event.
The event has grown significantly since its start, attracting over 100 vehicles last year, including motorcycles for the first time.
“Our goal is to grow and try to turn this into a premier import car show,” said Prosser. “It’s becoming a thing people want to show up for, and our aim is to keep expanding it every year.”
In addition to the road course and car show, the event will feature a vendor alley, showcasing lifestyle clothing and gear and plenty of giveaways, including a $500 gas gift card.
“It’s a super fun time,” Prosser said. “I enjoy it, and I think everyone else will too.”
