High Performance Pontiac Article ! HPP calls the BAN ONE show "One of the Rising Star Pontiac Shows! " Check out the article called "Show me the Way" highlighting the BAN ONE show along with 3 other all Pontiac shows in the country.  You can find the article in the June 2011 edition of High Performance Pontiac by Christopher Phillip, Associate Editor of High Performace Pontaic. 

For the 4th Annual BANONE show we have made some changes we hope that makes participating in the BAN ONE Show more enjoyable.  Below is a summary of what is new for 2012.

• Added 2 Special Memorial Awards in honor of Chris Petroski and Gene Wesson.  Both Chris and Gene were Firebird enthusiast for many years.  They showed both participated in the Firebird hobby until their respective illnesses would not allow them to continue and were an inspiration to anyone who was around them.  These awards will be selected by their family members in their honor and will reflect the kind of Firebirds they would have personally like to seen recognized.

Summit Racing will serve as our hosts: The BAN ONE Firebird and Trans Am Show will take place on the grounds of the Summit Racing Superstore, in McDonough GA, 30 miles south of Atlanta, just off I-75, exit 216. Summit is very excited to host the BAN ONE Firebird and Trans Am Show at their state of the art facilities. Summit Racing, as a key sponsor of the BAN ONE Firebird and Trans Am show is helping promote the show through it's customer mailings and regional marketing programs.

The week prior to and during the show, two very special Trans Am's will be selected and displayed inside the Summit Racing's Superstore on their rotating turnstyles located to the left and right of the main entrance.

Summit Racing, a huge supporter of the BAN ONE Show has graciously donated many of the door prizes that will be given away to the shows participants. Get Ready to have some fun!
