Hey everyone,

I've had a few hiccups with my website the last two days, and mn3s.org has been down. Its back up now. Thanks for your patience.

The All Mitsu Cookout is only four days away. At last check we had 142 cars signed up. But we still need more sign-ups!!

If you are planning on coming to the Cookout, remember these few things:

1) Sign-up online. The page is at:
http://mn3s.zforcenetwork.com/list/?p=subscribe&id=4

2) If you have Paypal, send me your $5 registration to cgendon@mail.com (no credit cards please)

3) Fill out your car sign ahead of time. Download the sign at:
http://www.mn3s.org/car-sign.doc And my example sign can be found here: http://www.mn3s.org/car-sign-curt.doc

4) Print a map so you can find the Rogers Middle School. I'll have dunce caps ready for anyone who goes to the car museum by mistake.

5) Bring a lawn chair for hanging out on Saturday.

When you get to the Rogers Middle School on Saturday, pull into the first entrance at the stop light. This front parking lot is where the cars will be displayed. If you are just coming to spectate or you don't own a Mitsu, don't pull into the front lot. Take the next right and drive around the school to the back lot where the buses park. This lot is pretty close to the main lot and its not very far to walk.

We have eight classes for the Cookout and we have eight rows in the parking lot. So each class will have there own row. I'm not sure yet which category will be in each row, but it will be clearly marked when you get there on Saturday.

New this year is my homemade PA system. No need for FRS radios anymore. Prize announcing and trophies will be done with the PA system. Also, I'm gonna change the registration line. There will be two lines this year. A line for 3/Ses and DSMs, which I will do, and another line for the rest of the classes (Ross and Chris D will do). Hopefully this will speed up registration.

Can't wait,
Curt

Hey everyone,

The All Mitsu Cookout is almost here!! Its tomorrow at the Rogers Middle School. The event runs from 11am to 4pm. I know the weather forecast doesn't look too great, but its a rain or shine event. We'll have a ton of cars, great prizes, and lots of food!! Don't let the weather deter you from coming. Its still a kick *** event.

We've got 150 cars signed up now. Bring your lawn chair, your appetite, your camera, and a little bit of good luck. You'll need the luck so you can win some of the nice prizes we have to give away.

When you get to the school, take the first right where the stoplight is. If you are coming just to spectate or don't have a Mitsu, don't turn at the stoplight. Keep going and take the next right turn. Drive around the school and park in the lot for the buses. Its just a short walk from there over to the main lot.

See ya at the Cookout,
Curt

Hey everyone,

Thanks to all who came out to the Cookout. It was a great event. We had 142 cars in the show. I especially want to thank all the volunteers I had this year. Chris D, Ross, Andy P, Dave, Steve, Matt D, Ed, John S, Oskar, Mike W and of course Stacy. You were all part of the success of this event. I actually had time to go look at the cars and enjoy the afternoon.

Also a big thanks to LSE Performance and Brookdale Mitsubishi. If you wonder why this Cookout is so cheap, our sponsors are the reason why. (or maybe its because I use bricks and duct tape to create signs)

Anyways, here are the pictures from the Cookout:
