We should figure out a time to roll in together... Earlier the better... clean the car up and get out before its super late.

I know OZOC will talk about it this Saturday at our meeting... to all 4 of us going.

 

Do not expect a large OZOC turnout this year. There have been lots of car issues and schedule changes this year and the expected showing is about 5 cars. We usually meet right at the show parking lot being that it's a pain to have to risk all the work everyone has done on their cars to have to meet somewhere then drive to the location.
The parking lot is huge and we can arrange to all meet and park together till roll in, provided everyone arrives on time.

I'm still waiting to see if my car will be fixed by then before I can register.

 

Have your cars clean well in advance...You can always touch up, wax, wheels, etc. inside when we roll in (remember roll in is the day before)

 

I know that a lot of you guys are looking for me to work on your cars before HIN? But with all the work I have to do on my car I still registered. I know that in will not have time with the new baby but I will still be there because it’s what we DO. Sorry that I cannot help you out this time like I’ve done in the past.

Lou

 

Well after tonights OZOC meet Im going to chime in for HIN this year. I couldnt make it last year because I couldnt get off from work to get my car there. This year though I will have my car there and in the show.

 

Sounds good Charles...it's a good time....like i mentioned in the other thread, if my car is ready..I'll be there.

 

Turn out is looking pretty good for Zs. I hope Azula can make it up for my other booth car since one of the others I was to have in it was totaled

 

well now that i said im going i want to... problem is i have a huge keymark on my rear quarter panel and my engine bay is pretty gross, so its not really competition grade lol. what do you guys think?

 

nick, its going to be dark the so the key mark wont be that noticeable, same for your engine, just get under there and start cleaning/wiping it down thruout the week. Its not a big a task as some people make it out to be, when I wash my car I pop the hood after washing it and usually do some light cleaning here and there, not like a show grade cleaning, but just enough to keep it presentable.

 

ok ill just clean it up this week when i have time, whats the link 2 register?
