Import Face Off Joliet 2018

October 22, 2018 By KZ

Import Face Off Joliet 2018

Hosted by: Hybrid Entertainment

Import Face Off Joliet 2018 was held on May 6, 2018 in Joliet, IL.  With this show being known for the most innovative Import series in the United States, the turnout is always amazing!  But for many of the attendees, this is more than just any car show.  Many Import Face Off Joliet 2018 fans spend the entire day of the show enjoying the lifestyle of the event.

This year, the show brought in a car/truck/bike show, 1/4 mile drag racing, Usaci stereo crank it up contest, model expo, burnout contest, live sport compact fighting, vendors, and much more! With the gates opening at 8 am, people began to flood the Route 66 Raceway.  At 11 am is when the real fun starts with races.  The crowd comes in waves to racing area just to see what each ride was able to bring to the table.
