Restaurant owner Bryan Turtle said about 500 specialty cars may show
up for tonight's Minnesota Valley Rally in downtown Shakopee.

A
spin-off of a car show that used to occur mid-week, the rally is
expected to draw a much larger crowd because it's being held Fridays,
every other week.

There will be street vendors and area shops
will also be open. The first event is tonight, with remaining shows
scheduled for July 18; August 1, 15 and 29 and Sept. 12 and 26.

The event is sponsored by the Shakopee Downtown Partnership and Boy Scout Troop 619.

Turtle, the lead event organizer, has said the car show is the only one of its kind in this part of the metro area.
