And there is an "other" section, but it's for strange mitsus.

Aww man. Strange? I would have said "unique". :(

I vote for one day. The lenght seems a bit long, but thats just my opinion. After waiting all day in the hot sun, it starts to get to you. Maybe shorten it by one hour?

That's what she said. And strange is awesome because it's different. I think the swap meet is a good idea, but it should start at 3pm, so no parts infront of your car until 3pm, or whenever the voting is concluded.

I have been planning on going to the cookout but haven't made it to one yet. A suggestion could be to have vendors attend? Might be able to get some good deals from them and would have more for people to do. (this may already be happening?)

I vote just the cookout. It's summer time, and I know I have tons of plans, all the time, during the summer. Dedicating an entire weekend for me would just be too much.

1 day, car show style. Maybe setup a side where people can bring tables and do a swap meet over there, AWAY from the cars.

The dyno day may bring in more people, but it really makes for along weekend imho. I might try to get out the cookout this year, I've always had stuff going on the last few years the day of :(.

Why would someone wanna be away from the cars trying to sell stuff? It's nice to see a car and be able to talk to the owner a bit. I like with the parts for sale right by the car, it would make no sense at all to make it basically a car show and a separate swap meet over on the side, it would take some of the fun and socializing out of it.

Yeah except it is hard to see and judge a car when there is a table full of used crap in front of it.

Hence my idea that works for both of you, have the swap meet begin after the car show ends. Or maybe just not have an official selling/trading plan, but just let people do as they wish. If their car gets fewer points because of a pile of garbage sitting in front of it, so be it. All I know is I have a good chance at winning 1st place in the starquest catagory this year. :D

Chances are I won't even have a DSM by the time this rolls around, but I'll still be there regardless!

i agree with the point about plenty of other dyno days, but i enjoyed the cruise to the drive-in diner the day before the car show. make sure it is on a weekend that works for most. if some miss out cuz of other stuff then so be it. also, i understand that some people came to the show but didn't pay to show their cars, yea you suck whoever you are. curt works hard to get everything to run smoothly. so i think we gotta do something to make sure that doesn't happen again. oh btw bitches, MITSUS only!!
