Ikon...

If someone here lets me borrow the $10k, then I'll give you 2500 of it. But I do have a 400% interest rate over the course of a month, so you can just give the payment to whomever I owe the 10k to.

Default NOPI stuff arrived!

Got my NOPI stuff! We're parking in "Red H" The booklet that came with it "said" that it was going to explain the parking zones, but it doesn't say anything in there about it. I'm gonna look online and see where that's at.

They sent a NOPI sticker too...I didn't get one of those the past 4 years....maybe because we registered early? Or they just don't like me?

Sounds like you guys are planning well. Can't wait to see your cars on Sat. Maybe we should notify the local dealers that we will be there? If we show well enough maybe free parts in the future?

Ya my sticker was all bent too from being in the envelope. I fixed it tho... Throw it in the microwave for about 5 or 10sec. and it gets really pliable. Then put it inside a phone book for pressure, and within 10min. or so all the creases are gone from the vinyl. Just don't forget which part of the phonebook you put it in, automotive works great. lol

Hey Everyone,

Most that have entered for the event should have received your passes and registration sticker by now. We are assigned to the "Red" parking area row H, which is just behind the media center right near all of the vendors. It is a paved surface and it is definitely a high visibility spot.

I have purchased the canopy. It measures 14' x 18', which should be large enough for 20, so the box claims. I'm still working on getting the banner and some sandbags to hold down the canopy. My graphics guy has been traveling a lot, so it has been hard to pin him down, but I'll get him.

Nopi has limited the size of coolers that are allowed to 14" x 14", so I figured if the majority of us has them then we should have enough capacity for beverages and some finger foods.

If everyone that is attending could PM me with your e-mail address, cell number, and which direction you'll be arriving from, I'll send you directions to where we're gonna meet Sat AM. It may be a private residence, so I really didn't want to post it on the board. As for the time to meet, I was thinking 7:00 am. The tunnels into the track open at 7:00, the meet spot is roughly 10-15 min away. With almost 5000 cars entered, it may take us a while to get in and set up. Should it be earlier? Let me know

Maybe we should meet around 6am, so we can get there are get in line....so we'll get in not long after 7. It's nice to be in and setup early, so you can watch all the other cars come in...

Whenever is fine with me....I don't really care....as long as we get there! I just figured we would want everyone to see all the Lexii parked and setup when they're coming in

Still don't have my NOPI packet. My fault - gave my old work address (I've asked a guy there to see if he can find it though). I've asked Frank how I can get another packet - maybe I should just call NOPI? (Answering my own question - I'm trying to call now...)
