About America Car Shows
America Car Shows, Inc. (ACS) d/b/a Oklahoma Car Shows (OCS) is a USA-owned, USA-supported bumper-to-bumper car show management system—built to help show directors run a smoother, more professional event from start to finish. Ben and James combine a polished show website with simplified registration, fast check-in tools, judging workflows, sponsor/vendor support, and smart reporting that keeps your team organized and your awards on time.
This platform was designed by a lifelong car enthusiast and show director with over 40 years of experience producing large community and marketing events. The goal is simple: give your volunteers a system that makes them look like pros—so you get more registrations, stronger sponsorship support, and a better show-day experience.
ACS/OCS is built for car show directors, assistant directors, registration teams, judges, and volunteers who want fairness, speed, and confidence on event day. With clean Stock vs. Modified reporting, People’s Choice options, and a trouble-check process to ensure no one is missed, you can produce accurate placements and push awards reports within minutes of judging completion. We even allow two shows per year on the same site so your investment can pay for itself faster.
