Indy 2015

The title of the show says it best "Toy Truck and Construction show". While tanks have been there in the past they have also been the cause of problems in the past. Farm equipment and tanks are welcome at the show but are better suited as loads for the trucks.

To make this as clear as I can the promoter of this show has two different magazines and shows.

Toy Trucker and Toy Farmer magazine.

The National Toy Truck and Construction show, that show cases toy trucks and construction equipment….

So to fit military in make it a piece of military construction equipment.

The Lafayette farm toy show (held in INDY). That show cases farm equipment.

This is how the promoter wants it she wants farm and construction separated. We mix these as well as the military here on the forum and it works for us but the Indy show has another set of rules that we cannot change no matter how much we discuss it or bring it up that is just how it is.

Okay, I certainly wouldn't want to be the source of any problems as I wasn't looking for an "in" or an exception, just a few questions for clarification.

IF I plan to attend or join you guys my tanks would be an addition and not the primary entrant vehicle.

But I would like to know how tanks were a problem... just for conversation that is. And if an exception is given or altered and there IS a tank exhibit to be planned let me know what is needed because Willy and Lynn both know me and I have both sides (Axis & Allied) to join in with to balance the show.

Some of the stock tanks as you do know are very fast just like the trucks and were being driven around the city as if they were on road vehicles. They were running into stuff sliding down the inclines on the bridges and just flat out being an annoyance instead of a valuable part of the show.

A tank exhibit would be more of an afterhour’s thing just for the fun of it.

So I am gathering from all of the questions you going to attend the next Indy show which is great it will be a pleasure to meet you.

So it was more like just some immature individuals fault than it being the vehicles that were in question?

Yes, if things work out I plan to attend and enter as well. I wanted to attend the past one this year but I lost track of time and it passed by me! LOL

Interesting story and thanks for sharing it.

Yes you’re right but seeing the tanks running during the day is what got the promoters attention and wandered why at a truck and construction show we were not showing off trucks and construction equipment

THIS IS FOR EVERYBODY IT IS NOT DIRECTED AT ONE PERSONE.



Trucks and construction equipment.

Acceptable



















No leave at home










There are dedicated shows for tank battles, rc tracks for off road racing, and flying fields for aircraft.



This is a TOY TRUCK AND CONSTRUCTION SHOW.


I don't mean to be so blunt but we keep getting the why or what if or we use to, this should explain it if not I do not know what to tell you other than I give up as you just won't get it no mater how much we explain it even with pictures.
