  1. There's a some kind of sign in front of the Morton bldg. I'm planning on hanging the HAMB banners on it. Might help a little.

    Joel;

    Did you hire guards for the Duesy??? You won't get any sleep this weekend with that vehicle on the campgrounds. I'll try to hook up with you over the weekend.

    This is the greatest car show I have never attended, seems something always gets in the way. The number of rides at this show boggles my feeble mind. Please take and post a lot o pix so I can have another trip and never leave the farm. Thanx ~sololobo~

    Got my registration materials about 6:30 last night. Wednesday night pick-up was a great addition this year. Walked right in, walked right out. No fuss. Didn't have to park a half mile away either!

    I had to walk 4 blocks to get to registration. The empty industrial park owners wanted $10.00 to park there for the 1/2 hour it took to get your paperwork. Looks like it is time to move the registration again.
    I noticed most people were not parking there either.

    Looking forward to 3 days of fun and friends.

    What? Isn't registration at the same hotel as it's been for the past 10 or so years? Couldn't you just park in their lot?

    I registered this afternoon while I was making my rounds for work. Parked in the lot about 800' north of the hotel. No one asked for a dime for parking. Walked into the hotel registration entry, registered 2 cars in a matter of 10 minutes or less. I am very impressed! :)
     
  27. I paid the $10! I know it was my choice, but why can't the MSRA charge me $5 and just mail the stuff to me? Total joke!

    I heard a guy say he asked those charging $10.00 who was getting the money and they wouldn't tell him. Personally, I think it's whoever owns that office complex trying to make some money off of us.

    Registration should of been moved along time ago. It's outgrown the Hampton. It was so much easier when registration was N.E off of Hwy. 36. Much better in and out.

    Hope everyone has a GREAT weekend!
