This might not help you a bit, but I did the one last year in Omaha and here's my experience.

[QUOTE=ImportPatrolWS6]
1) One of the rules says that you need something under the car, in the event that the car leaks any fluids that it will not drip on the floor. (so would a drop cloth be the thing to use?) I never had to have anything under the car

2) What times do you usually need to get their before they open on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday? Didn't have to be there any special time

3) Where do you park your daily driver on each of those days? Anywhere different then the general public? Do you have to pay for each day? Special pass to park close

4) I read that some of you had coolers with beer in and etc. Is that suppose to be a hush hush thing. Or can I bring some **** to tide me over each day? Never tried

Is this going to turn out to be just 3 cars in the middle of mc. place, and nothing else? Is there going to be any banners, tables, or anything like that. Just wondering. Seeing that we are bringing our cars in tomorrow, and it seems like there has not been to much planning.

I'm curious who else is actually going to just look around. I will be there with my GF and probably a few friends. I'll be wearing a black firebird hat and my gf will be wearing her firebird shirt so maybe I'll stop by and say hi!

Yeah, I guess we won't have much of a display. I'm surprised SilverGhost hasn't chimed into this thread...he seemed to take the lead in planning and first got it started. I remember him saying something about a banner, but who knows. I don't have any roping to bring along...so I guess they will just be in the open. People can see the cars better that way...but there is always the risk of fools messing with your car. Maybe we can keep an eye out on each other's cars. What we don't have in display, we will fix with alcohol.

[QUOTE=gettinthere]That's a poor excuse.

Maybe if there was a death in the family that would be a better excuse for you guys.

i didn't put a damn thing under my car last year, neither did my friends.

its fun no matter what. no we aren't going to get **** for a club display but hey you're in, roped off, will get to compete in your class, and will be drinking so quit bitching.
