Your Appearances. All in One Place.

Your fans and followers want to know where they'll see you next. 

But Instagram announcements eventually get buried under newer posts. 

With CrateOnScene, they can easily find your upcoming official appearances, past appearances, and community events you've attended—all from one public profile.

Apply to Participate in Events.

See an event you'd like to be part of? 

If the organizer is accepting Model/Cosplayer applications through CrateOnScene, you can apply directly and track your application status without having to reach out through DMs or emails.

Become Part of the Official Lineup.

Once confirmed by the organizer, your photo and profile appear in the event's Official Appearances section. 

Now people exploring the event can discover you, view your profile, and see where you'll be appearing.

Keep Track of Every Event.

Received an invitation from an organizer through CrateOnScene? Or applied to several events yourself? Keep track of invitations, pending applications, confirmations, and waitlists in one place.

No more digging through scattered messages to figure out where things stand. Invitations are available through participating CrateOS Official Partner organizers.

Part of the Bigger Event Picture.

People don't always attend an event for just one attraction. They want to see which cars are participating, who's exhibiting, which brands are involved, and which models and cosplayers will be there.

CrateOnScene brings these participants together on the event page, giving attendees more reasons to get excited, discover your profile, and look for you when they arrive.

Because your presence doesn't just add to the event. It can also give someone another reason to attend.

Guest Appearances is now live on CrateOnScene.

Apparently, this is how we start the day before gallivanting.

We get asked what CrateOnScene actually is pretty often, especially once people see how we’re using it ourselves.

A lot of people first come across it through event listings, then realize there’s more to it than just event discovery.

CrateOnScene is built around more than one type of user, so we’ve organized the information by role and topic to make it easier to understand how the different parts fit together.

Go to CrateOnScene.com and scroll to the footer. You’ll find links by user type, along with use cases, sponsorship information, and the latest updates.

If there’s anything you still want clarified or need help with, feel free to reach out to us. by @vinfusion

We get asked about our car sponsorship program pretty often, especially about what it is, how it works, what sponsored drivers receive, and whether someone may qualify.

It’s not always something we can fully explain when we’re in the middle of an event, so we put the full explanation in one place.

Import Crate is the sponsor. CrateOnScene is the platform we use to manage and document the sponsorship.

If you want the full details, including how drivers are considered and what the sponsorship includes, it’s all here:

The rental van didn’t have a spare.

The hole was too close to the sidewall to repair, so all we could do was inflate the tire, drive about five miles, stop, inflate it again, then keep going.

We did that until we finally reached Pilot Point around 6 or 7 in the morning.

Most tire shops were still closed. The first one we found only carried 18-wheeler tires, but they let us use their air compressor and pointed us toward Walmart.

We put enough air in it to make it there without stopping again.

Then another 45-minute wait and a new tire before we could finally continue toward New York.

We were already about 2–3 hours behind schedule.

And that delay ended up affecting another decision we had to make later that night. by @vinfusion

We were on our way to New York for Anime NYC.

And then this happened.

Before Stonebriar closed, we were already thinking about where to take Import Crate next.

Some of these shows had been planned months in advance. We wanted to see how the brand would connect with different audiences and markets, taking it from San Antonio all the way to New York City, then back to San Antonio and Houston.

In between, we also made it to a couple of car meets and had opportunities to introduce more of what we've been building beyond Import Crate.

The last few weeks have given us plenty to think about.

There's a story behind each of these stops, and we'll get into those one at a time. by @vinfusion

After the last few shows, we started noticing the same problem.

People would come looking for a specific design, size, or product we didn't have with us.

So we changed how we prepare.

Anime NYC made us question whether the 10×10 was still enough. San Japan confirmed it.
So we have one more 10×10 to figure out. by @vinfusion

Before Anime NYC, we started documenting what was packed inside each box instead of relying on memory once we reached the venue.

It helped us find products during setup, locate extra inventory when we needed to restock and confirm that everything was packed before leaving.

We created the system for New York, improved it afterward and used it again for San Japan. Now it’s part of how we prepare for every major event. by @vinfusion
