Bragging Rights
For those who have yet to see one of our shows, we tend to amass some of the greatest diversity of cars in one place. Anyone who has been to a previous show can attest there's something for everyone, including Classics, Domestics, Imports, Euros and even Supercars. All makes, models and price ranges of vehicles are welcome.

You can also find the planning forum at the top of our forum page here. The only way to make our show better is from the input we get and we'll do our best to incorporate as many ideas as possible.

Other Mentionables:
- The parking lot has a maximum capacity of around 600 cars. Once the parking lot is full, THE GATES WILL BE CLOSED. No ifs, ands, or buts. Plan accordingly and it should not be a problem.

- Judging will be done by the attendees and will begin at exactly Noon. Those who arrive past Noon will not be allowed to register for judging.
- We will have porta-potties within the show as well as food and background music.

It's actually the 6th annual, the banner is wrong.

Ok, I just updated the master post so everything is correct now.

I should be there, i know a few people went last year, how was it?

there were 5 or 6 fieros from NEFA last year, just expect the show to be about half subarus and hondas (unfortunately). there usually is a good number of classics and a few exotics show up too.

i will be there with my fiero. is there going to be a meet before hand to go as a group?

last year some of us met up down the road so we could park together. i might not this time because i will have to help out at the show.

You can count me in for this one =]

------------------

84 2m4

I'll try and make it my car may not be ready but I will try and show up.

glad to see that people are interested. if you want to park together i would recommend meeting somewhere close by (such as CVS), and driving to the lot together. also if it's a nice day the lot could fill up by 11 or 12.

so where should we meet and when guys?

I second that. Let me know for sure, it would be nice to be together. Im not too familiar with the area.

------------------

84 2m4

yea i dont really know the area either, is CVS a good place to meet?

CVS is where the people who came last year met up, it's less than five minutes down the road from the lot.
I don't know where everyone is coming from but CVS is pretty close to rt 84 also.

It's this sunday!!!

after I am done with school out here in cali I will be with you guys out there in beautiful new england

Some of the NEFA members are attending again this year. We plan to meet in the CVS parking lot at 11:30 a.m. and drive in together.

Gwen Randolph, NEFA President

chuck do you think we will still be able to get in if we meet up at 11:30? is that too late?
