Annual National Event Guide Lines

The annual NTBA Nationals will officially be a 3 day event, taking place on Thursday, Friday and Saturday in the months of June or July. Exceptions to be approved by NTBA board of directors. The NTBA will provide liability insurance coverage for the event, which will cover participants and spectators.

The following guide lines and requirements may be amended with the consent of the NTBA board of directors. If you are not able to provide all of the requirements listed, please contact the NTBA officer in charge, before you get too far along with your proposal and provide your alterations for their approval.

Our event will produce .5 to .75 million in revenue for the host city/town. Many members and their families will be in town the entire week. We stay in motels, hotels, RV parks, dine in restaurants, fast food places, and ice cream parlors (we like ice cream). Our members will shop in the stores, malls, and specialty stores for souvenirs. Buy gas and ride around enjoying the sites. We give the spectators rides in our cars. We let people take pictures while sitting in our cars. The NTBA membership will make new friends and spread good will throughout your community and the area.

1. Hotels/Motels to accommodate 300-500 people. Please consider a camp ground for those who wish to use it. (Not required).

2. If a Motel wishes to be the "Host" for the event the NTBA will negotiate reasonable room rates and perks. In most cases, we will block out 90-95% of the rooms. Parking lot security will be needed for a minimum of 3 nights, during official event.

3. Conference room with a PA system is needed for our annual meeting, at no charge to the NTBA. It lasts about 2-3 hours on Friday or Saturday. (The conference room needs to accommodate 450-550 people.)

4. Off premise parking area for tow vehicles and trailers, with security or fenced area is needed, unless the host motel has additional space on site.

5. Host city/town must be willing to help with local police and fire for this event. "We are not, about speed and wild driving" Just clean family fun, cruising, and showing off our cars.

6. Thursday evening, provide a police escorted parade to a location of your choice, for a hot dog-burger burn with refreshments. Free of charge (preferred although not required) for all NTBA event participants.

7. Friday evening. Provide a police escorted parade to local downtown, place of interest, or mall, etc. Cars will be parked for 3-4 hours in a show & shine. A blocked off street works just fine.

8. Saturday is the Main Event Show & Shine which is free to the public. The cars will remain for most of the day. Grass & trees are great, but asphalt will do. This area needs to be large enough for 200-300 cars, awnings, and vendors. Electric power must be provided for music and PA system. This area will need to be provided with amenities, at no charge.

9. A one half page ad will be placed in Street Rodder Magazine, half paid by the NTBA and other half paid by Host town/city. Currently the charge is 1010.00 each. The ad will be set up by the NTBA and will outline your area.

10. All entry fee's and vendor fee's will be property of NTBA. All venders will be approved by the NTBA with no exceptions.

11. Provide a secured room for event registration and merchandise, at the host motel or where Saturday show and shine will be held.

12. After obtaining all the details, names, address, contacts, phone numbers and so forth, make copies and send your proposal to the NTBA.
