Also, just got word from the show
promoter/organizer Jim Turner (he also does the Hot Rod and Drag Racing expo the
2 days before), said that the Fire Marshall's told him today that they will be
in attendance to check and make sure that all cars coming in the building does
not have more then a 1/4 tank of gas in the car. This was QUITE a surprise to
Jim, but wasn't much he could do so he had to send letters out to all the Hot
Rod folks about this procedure today. We do not know if they will show up on
Sunday morning for our event, but I wanted EVERYONE to be prepared. So don't
fill up that Gas tank, just wait until after the event. We don't anyone turned
away, if they show up to check.
- Registration is closed. If you still want your car in the show, Day of show is $40, but you will have to wait until all pre-registered cars are in place. Show cars will be placed in the building from 8-10am.
