Frequently Asked Questions
From time to time, we will publish the questions we receive to further help you more-easily understand TOCC.
Q: How many cars do you represent?
A: At press time (February 27, 2010) we have 447 members that make up the
various teams of Tricked Out Car Club. Additionally, as part of our family-network
of Bay County Car Clubs, we represent several hundred rides of every
possible make & model. And with our various TOCC chapters
around the globe, we are in touch with thousands of auto enthusiasts
and attend hundreds of events each year! If you are a auto
enthusiast, TOCC is a great way to continue your auto enjoyment and
be an active part of your community.
Q: How often do you meet?
A: Regular meets are held once or twice a month. We also hold mod
day meets, timed to fit our members' busy and varied schedules.
Beyond that, on special occasions, we travel out of town (or out of
state) to national car shows and we frequent local car shows, and represent
our family-network of car clubs many time monthly. We also have our
own exclusive spot at Friday Fest and we will support most any
charity or other
community event whenever possible. Our club was build for the
community, by the community and we care greatly about the area as a
whole.
Q: What brand of automobiles does the
club represent?
A: Our club structure is designed to showcase any and all makes and models. That's right, we are a multi-branded car club that
loves the pure power of V8s, the refined style of the imports, and
everything in between. If you have a clean ride that you are proud
of, contact us and allow us the opportunity to
further discuss TOCC. You do not have to "show" your ride to
be a member. If you prefer to simply hang out and/or help us behind
the scenes, we welcome you and hope you will contact us. We welcome
tricked out trucks and bikes too!
Q: Can I be a member of TOCC in addition
to my
current car club?
A: No. Our wish is to partner with quality clubs, both
locally and throughout the United States, and to represent each other in
a friendly, professional manner. To do so, we believe recruiting
from other clubs is a big no-no and should not exist. We also do not
dual enrollments work very well nor allow a member to fully belong
to either.
Q: Is Tricked Out Car Club
a national club?
A: Yes. While we are founded and based in Panama City, Florida,
we are always looking for quality people to represent us across the
globe. Currently, we have members in 13 states. If you feel you have something to contribute, please use the
contact us page and tell us about
yourself.
Q: Does it cost money to join?
A: Membership is free.
Q: Does the Tricked Out Car Club allow
stock cars to join?
Yes and no. While we do allow stock rides to join, they must be well-maintained for them to be
considered for display. Since we are a car club, the
cars will be in the spotlight and represent us to the car community. Small mods are encouraged and shiny,
happy rides are expected.
With that said, let me say that the Tricked Out Car Club is about equality to all. Everyone will be treated fairly and we will find a way for you to participate, regardless of the ride you roll in! That means if your ride is not just-right at the moment, you could still join and help with meets, shows and fund-raisers, while we help you make your ride shine. We can help you with the transformation too. TOCC means people first.
Q: What are the rules of your club?
A: We believe that a club that is built on respect towards all
people, regardless of the rides, will build a true "family" that
will care about and look after one another sincerely and for that,
we will not need a book of rules full of complications. We believe
treating people right is simple. So, we have three
words of guidance that everyone adheres to; Friendly, Respectful &
Professional. That means everyone will be treated fairly and equally
as one - without power hungry officers. We do not allow cliques,
drama or disrespect towards anyone.
Friendly, Respectful & Professional is the TOCC way!™
