our itenerary normally goes like this.

most people try to take off friday

thursday after work, clean up the cars

friday, get to sleep in, clean up cars more, meet around lunch time and caravan down... going through the tunnel is always a big hit
get to the beach, unpack, start drinking, go eat, party fri night

sat morning put the cars on the boardwalk (i suggest any polishing be done before going on the boardwalk to keep from rubbing sand into the paint)

sat afternoon, hang out around the cars, walk the boardwalk to see the show, do the awards, go eat a big late lunch, go to the burnout contest.. 2 years ago they had a dyno

sat night party some more, we took some nitro rc cars to the beach last year and that was cool

sunday get up late check out, go have lunch together, then head home.. go through the tunnel together again

I'm really looking forward to this. This will be my first time going. I need to go buy a bunch of batteries and memory for my camera soon so I'll be prepared.

I don't even have an f-body anymore, I'm just jealous and like to stir the pot.

I hope to make some more new friends this year! Can't wait. Maybe we could all have dinner together!

at the oceanfront they have half of the parking lot reserved for show cars before/after the show during the show they are lined up end to end on the boardwalk and it has to sit there the duration of the show, about 4' between cars

if you are asking about hotel reservations, rpm will again be staying at the oceanfront and try for a place closer to 16th street next year. (assuming it does not move again)

It moved becuase of more f-bodies than normally. And they actually moved the whole GM section. We will have four blocks to fill up with F-bodies. Before we had 2 blocks.

Reg starts at 8 am. I'll be in the tent at 7:30 I'm sure still trying to wake up.

I don't believe so, but last year, there were spots pre-saved for pre-registered people. So if you want to sign up that day, come early, becuase if you are getting there at 10am it will probably be more difficult.

But since this is my first time in the registration booth, I am not 100% sure.

See ya'll till next Sunday.
