Classes For The Car Show

I'm pretty sure I'm going to enter this ... does anyone want to join and how many people were planning to go ?

Ron A

I stuck this and put it in the 3G Meets Thread. Tried to send you a PM but your mail box is full.

AcUrAge703

Now this is something i might just clear my schedule for.....i've watched it on tv enough times to let it go by....thanks for the heads up...

ShortyeuroR

thanks ghost,

i WILL be at that show by any means necessary.

Paclark01

Is there a group set up through Acurazine to attend NOPI? If there is a group, I would like to meet up with some folks who are registered to show their cars.

Depends how many people wanna join me ... IF someone/people join me ... then we can roll in the car show all at once and show together!!! But we'd have to roll in together because they put you in as first come first serve. I was thinking about getting there around 8 or 9 am on Saturday just for the best spot in the show. I'm not getting stuck in the corner like my last show, ha.

Paclark01

I will definitely be there. A friend of mine has a Supercharged RSX that will be attending too, and possibly a 4 door GSR Sedan. I am supposed to meet him at a Burger King, which is 15 minutes from Buds Creek at 7am on Saturday.

Updated with the links, beautiful colors, etc. included ** haha!

Yeah, if people wanna do that, that would be great! But for the people in the show (like me) we have to get there asap Saturday morning to get the best show spots ... and I highly doubht that people just coming for a Azine.com meet will have a 'meet' at 7:30 am! haha. But yes, people should chime in and put something together like that. This looks like it will be great and the list is coming together a little fast already!

Just some extra notes incase any of the below comes up …

- Even if you don’t register via their website you can still register the day of the show. Also, if you do the ‘roll in registration’ and get their 1st thing at 8 am … you are just as eligible for the best parking spots as those who registered online! It’s still $65 for both days either way you choose. Their website takes credit cards, but I doubht you could pay credit card as a ‘roll in.’
- You can put tents up over your car as long as they fit in the space provided for your car. I didn’t get a response back on the allowed space. I’m guessing a size little bit more than a parking spot? Maybe 10 ft. by 10 ft.?
- There are no gas level restrictions (like at indoor shows where you have to have like 1/8 tank of gas and no more) thus you can start your car, play your sound system, etc. as long as the car behind/near you doesn’t have a problem with it.
- If you’re in the competition you should be judged and free to go around late afternoon on Saturday. Then they like you to be back in the car show around noon on Sunday incase your car needs to be reviewed for the “Top Ten Best of Show”. The cash prizes and trophies are given out at the awards ceremony Sunday afternoon.

ptk681

Also note that if you unable to come Saturday, you can come Sunday and still register for the car show until 12pm, The only disadvantages are that it is still $65.00 which gets you and a passanger in, but you are not eligible for the "Best of Show" awards, You are basically judged in a "Sunday Only" class

I will be working the gate...See yall there...I'll be without my car I have to fly up there...no miles on my car...:-)

kel

** Also if you are coming to spectate only, long onto Myspace.com under NOPI, there should be a $5.00 off coupon for one day admission only...Hey Every little bit helps!

MikeCLS6

I should be there around noon on saturday, but im not showing my car. Ive been this this event the past 3 years. One of my freinds was actually in the NOPI swimsuit contest and my gf at the time got up on stage and danced. It was a pretty good time!!!

dezzzmond

Yea lets do that. We might be able to meet up at Fair Oaks Mall. Good thinkin

AcurasGhost

Thanks for the extra note ptk681! I didn't know that one! ha Do you know exactly what size tent I can bring and what size area each car has to display their vehicle?

I would suggest a 10x10, they can work it out to set aside an area for everyone if you can get a head count, the last show had over 200 cars there, so space is limited...

looks like 8 so far, so I will just check back by next thursday to estimate how many spaces you may need and let car show registration know...:-)

AcurasGhost

Okay, sounds good. I have a tent that is 10x10 I believe so hopefully that will work out fine.

The 8 on the 'definitely" list is just the people showing up to the show. I think so far I'm the only one entering the actual show itself ...

AcurasGhost

bump

ptk681

Just FYI

I know MIR charges $10.00 additional to park inside the gate they call it "pit parking" Just FYI if you you all want your cars inside the gate and don't want to show...

AcurasGhost

Thanks!

phatintegra

Won't be able to make it.

Change the title It's not National. National is in Atlanta GA

AcurasGhost

Okay.

If a mod wants to change it feel free.

I'm planning to be there around 9ish, but we'll see since It's almost 4 am, haha.

AcurasGhost

Hey guys,

I was there yesterday till just 2ish ... I had to go bc I was wayyy to tired from only sleeping 2 hours the night before. (I went to bed at 4 am) and then had to be up and out on my way to the car show at 6:45 am, lol!

I'll be there today at 3:30ish to 6:30 pm if your going to come. I think my car will only be able to be parked in the normal general parking tho since I'm coming back so late. I have to do some things for work.

Just FYI for anyone who was coming ....
