2009 HIN Rivalry Nights Columbus - Rivalry Girls

As part of the Rivalry Nights Tour, there are 12 lovely ladies who travel with the show and partipate at each event helping to keep the crowd hype. This year, the models include Summer Posey, Anne Rivera, Nicole Webb, Shana Prevette, Erin McKinnon, Brandi Reed, Jessica Barton, Jaycelle Propst, Aspen Widowson, Anna Burns, Sarah Coggin and Nicki Kretchmer. Take a look at the Rivalry Girls in action at HIN Rivalry Nights Columbus after the jump.

No Hot Import Nights event would be truly complete without the requisite go go dancers. Jenny Chu and Nikita Esco were in the house doing their thing along with some up and coming talent. So, check out the images after the jump from the 2009 Rivalry Nights Tour stop in Columbus, Ohio. There is not much more to say here, only to see...

This past Friday, September 11th, marked the kick-off of the 2009 Rivalry Nights Tour with its first stop in Columbus, Ohio, where the event served as the ultimate tailgate party for the Ohio State vs USC football game. Put on by the same folks that host the Hot Import Nights events, the first ever Rivalry Nights show featured a wide-variety of activities including drifting exhibitions by NOS Energy, autocross racing, the Ball Up Streetball Tour, the Sterling Planet Green Show, the usual stellar HIN contest, motorcycling stunts, Noche Libre style wrestling, martial arts expos, interviews with special guest Warren Moon and a live concert headlined by Hank Williams Jr. It truly was a smorgasbord of activities. As always, Digital Age Motorsports, the event promoters, put on a great show with a little something for everyone.

On Saturday night, Hot Import Nights (HIN) kicked off its 2009 season at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, California. In contrast to the flatness of last year’s event at the (indoor) LA Convention Center, this outdoor venue made for a dynamic, exciting, multi-dimensional show. The folks at Digital Age Motorsports, the event promoter, really outdid themselves this time around.

Upon entering the far parking lot, back to back cars were racing down a track with three posts to maneuver around in timed sessions. I say maneuver, because most attempts fell far short of drifting, although there were definitely some solid standouts. In any case, it was tremendously entertaining. This was really an opportunity for the public to show off their skills and for individuals or teams to claim bragging rights.

Later in the evening, on a separate track, professional drifters put on one hell of a show doing multiple laps around a large expanse of barricaded parking lot. And throughout the event, there were ongoing flips and totally insane tricks pulled off by Motocross pros on two monster ramps. The music acts this year were solid as well with Ya Boy, Qwes, Far East Movement, Navigator, Oso & Haji, and Solo Da Beast performing while DJ Rocky Rock was on the wheels of steel.
