Bump. 2 Weeks.
Just to clarify from what I mentioned in the other thread: IT WILL STILL BE LOCATED AT UCONN. THERE WILL BE NO LOUD EXHAUST COMPETITION. BE AWARE THAT THE LOCAL POLICE DEPT. WILL BE TICKETING NON-STREET LEGAL CARS. THIS WILL MOST LIKELY BE ONLY IF YOU DESERVE IT... AKA BURNOUTS, REVING YOUR ENGINE, BEING A PURE RICER. I wouldn't worry to much about the cops. Just be aware that they will be stricter this year than previous years. I doubt us miatas have too much to worry about. |
Any word on whether or not the UConn women's volleyball team will be making an appearance?
|
I'll be there, not in the miata though
|
I'll be working the gate and probably have the MINI or WRX
|
I will be there

BUMP
See you tomorrow. Looking like a great day! |
Thanks for putting on the show- couldn't have asked for better weather. One thing I would suggest for next year, since there was such a large turnout, is getting a bit more "selective" of who you let "show" their car. There were quite a cars that should have been not been on display. Not trying to sound like a dick here, and I know this would invole a pre-registration and a whole lot more work you all probobly don't want/feel like doing, but just thought I'd share my opinion.
I couldn't believe how many cops I saw in and around Uconn though. |
