Yes, Acurazine is on Pavement, and has actually been moved to where the NSX and Skylines used to be, right outside the media center.

RonJon will have his booth in that area as well........

Should be able to tie the tents to the fence behind you....

Wow- it just keeps getting better Thank you so much for hooking this up for us Glenn!

Since our registration stickers all say honda lot- do we just tell them we are with acurazine when we come through the gates?

Well, what's done is done. At least I have a couple more days until I can go pick up my credentials from will call. Leaving early from work on a Friday is always a huge perk.

I had already washed my car this past weekend. So, if it rains at all on Friday, it won't be too much of a hassle to clean it up. I still need to wax the car though.

I think you would still need to be there early if you are trying to get registered on the day of the event...NOPIGUY, keep me honest here...

Shiiiiitty

I've got some bad news and some shitty news. Our service manager called me about an hour ago to tell me to pack some non-business dress clothes, I replied...alright, why if I may ask? He said because BMW added an extra night in our hotel, and pushed back the flight date to Saturday morning (the 15th the first day of Nopi ) I asked him if it was for more meetings, he said no. I told him that was alright anyways, but I got to be home Friday eve the earliest possible, that I've got friends from out of town coming in. He said alright, call the airlines and see how much it would be to swap your flight...its $135 to switch (whatthefuck?) and BMW won't pay for it.

I need a big favor from someone...I've told two PDG CL's they could stay at my place Fri and Sat night...I won't be here...Can someone please let them stay with you, or if you have a hotel, let them know where you're staying and get them the info STAT? Please, I know this is a huge favor to ask someone, but I feel like such an ass and I've got to make it up to these guys somehow (I made them a promise that I got to break and its last minute).

Their online IDs are: PDGCLS01 and foreveraflboy

The shitty but really not important news is, the money I paid to enter Nopi is non-refundable

We fly out tomorrow morning at 7:19am and our first meeting is at 11:00am, Miami time. Fly in Sat 16th at 11:45am

And yes, I got my Identity Fraud cleared up!

So they're good to go but you're stuck on the day of NOPI, nbennettksu? Damn, that sucks dude! As long as you can still make it on Saturday, there will be a spot for you in our area. And after a long ass flight, you'll have plenty of alcohol to wash all of that crap off. Zac should have everyone's contact number.

Damn nick that sucks man. We will hold a spot for you, At (if he can make it), and Phillip. As far as I know, the rest of us will be there bright and early- we should have at least 5-7 cars to hold our spot down.

Mmm... is registration still open? How much is it?

I was really on the fence about it, but now I might want to come. Do the cars have to be there Friday evening or is the setup for Saturday morning?

What are the party plans for Friday and Saturday nights?

Sure is- just don't wait til saturday morning to register. Clinton and Tim are staying with me on friday night and we'll probably hanging out for a bit if you want to join. I think everybody has to go to sleep pretty early though as we have to be in before the sun the next morning. We are partying saturday for sure if everybody is up for it

Nah, not yet. I keep trying to hook up with Michelle and either they are busy or I can't leave the office. We are going to try tomorrow since I have to take my son to a doctor's appointment and we will be in the area. Michelle has been very nice and I plan on doing a thread on the installation and results and give them some props.

It hurts my heart to read this thread because I wanted to be out there with you guys, but hopefully Nopi will come a little farther away from my daughter's birthday next year and i can be there.

Zac, I want pictures and videos!

I'm looking at the registration page and I see nothing under Car Clubs. I thought we were supposed to register under a club name to be with them? I'm confused about the process. Help me out.

When you actually register, towards the bottom it will ask if your part of a car club, hit the drop-down arrow and look for acurazine. This will only appear when you actually register.

Hey Steve, since I'll be down there on Friday after 3PM, I can pick up my parking pass from you if you're still at the speedway. If not, where can we all meet you to get our new parking pass if you can't join us for the cruise down on Saturday morning?

The space that Glenn is talking about is one of the best pieces of asphalt inside the speedway (if im not mistaken). I wonder where the NSXs will be lodged this year!!

I am registered with Endless Expression with a good number of my buddies so i'm not sure how it will work out as far as parking with everyone from acurazine. I always figure things out at the last moment so no worries. Even at this point in time i still don't have a hotel room as i've always been able to find a room when i get down there. haha.

There is one last minute modification that you guys will get to see. I'm thinkin about keeping it a secret. It's coming from California...Bulletproof Automotive...and its currently located in South Carolina according to the tracking number.

NOPI weekend is almost here!!!!
