That's a long drive for me but I think I can make it down. I'm going to see how many cars I can bring down.

I'll definitely be there all day Sunday for the car show. I may pop in on Saturday just to catch some of the tuner cars on the track.

So how do we go from having a shop buy a booth and bring multiple cars for the magazine shoot for two magazines to having NO VIP cars except one late in the day. We had Modified waiting to shoot the VIP GARAGE cars for a feature as well as a friend of a friend who was in for the event from JAPAN and a magazine called "RICH car" there Saturday which is all VIP. Waiting to meet the local VIP bippu guys and none of you guys showed up either day. Sort of funny how the winning subaru show car in its class was from Ohio and a Skyline from Pittsburgh as well as a Scion from Charlotte made the trip but the locals didnt. You missed the free track rides, free on track cruising sessions as well as all the competition. for preliminary coverage look .here

plus www.S3mag.com was there as well as L & E magazine.

I have to aplogize. We just weren't well-organized as a group, so collectively, our schedules fell apart. I woke up mid-morning Sunday absolutely exhausted from running around the week before. I literally rolled over, and went back to sleep for 5 hours. MUCH NEEDED REST.

I'm really sorry...hope it didn't cause too much of an inconvenience for you.

well after VIP Garage faxed back the booth space commitment we bought VIP Class Trophies and after talking to them at several other meets, we flew the JDM photographer in from the Japanese Magazine to shoot the cars. From Japan.... not cheap so me not Redline is out airfare, trophy $$$ and respect for wasting this guys time. So i am a bit pissed. no booth payment, over $100.00 for class trophies and like 700.00 for airfare.

sorry to hear that bro.... definitely a tough situation and something I understand completely. Thats why you gotta have plan b, c, and d. Typically B works out pretty well.

goodluck!!!

no contract on the booth purchase agreement?
