Can you show up and camp at the campgrounds or do you have to reserve a spot?

thanks sam. yep tank is filled with 100oct getting ready for Ohio. but there is some bad news. my clutch was clipping while sean was tuning. he adjusted it and it still could not hold. on the bright side the car picked up some nice power from 93 to 100oct. sean and Sam did some work and we have a new rebuild kit for the QM clutch coming tomorrow. and on top of it all tomorrow there installing it and where going back on the dyno to finalize the tune. how is that for last minute quality and service.

well it was originally going to to just me and my mom ( haha mother daughter date, even though she wishes it was going shopping instead of something car related xD ) but then her boyfriend wanted to come, and he'd have his daughter that weekend, so it'd end up being four of us on an 8 hour drive, and my mom's car doesn't exactly sip gas, and we'd have to get hotel rooms and my mom kept complaining on how much it would cost and what a pain it would be. I'd gladly go alone, but for some reason I don't think that would go over too well. =P so now she's wanting to make up for it with HIN because it's closer, which is tempting, but definitely not the same as watching a bunch of hot dsm's and Evo's all weekend.

HIN is a JOKE compared to the shootout, you have to attend it to even understand it. I hope you can make it.

Agreed, if you're a fan of the 4g63 there is nothing quite like the shootout. A small town literally flooded with DSM's and Evo's plus the biggest names in the industry in one location makes for one hell of a weekend. Just one week away!

yea, I already knew HIN is nothing compared to the shootout. and this makes me sad. =[ I might like all imports, but I love Mitsu. grr. if I wasn't so unsure that my car could make it there and back, I'd drive myself. haha I told my mom that I'm sitting at home and moping on the 14th and 15th if I didn't get to go. I wish there was cool people in my town that were going; I'd mooch a ride off them lol
