That's true Travis, especially if they used the entrance 2yrs ago, going across the railroad tracks. There's another entrance tho, when my car was @ the AJC Auto show that they led us through that was a lot better, on the other side, across from where they staged us in that parking lot.
ic well we need to to see if they move it to there next year and if so we should call someone an tell them to use the other entrance!!! I also hated the parking lot that they had us meet up in before we rolled in the roads around there are crap not to mention the driveway into the lot....
i got turned away also that would have made 22 for ELITE
Josh won Hottest Acura, I think? Woot woot, congrats everyone!

yeah roll in was fucked up this year. after hours of waiting in line on friday and saturday and being promised that i had a spot in the show me and adam (who were the two elite cars by the way) were told that the fire marshall shut it down. i went to talk to the NCCA guy and i got a free comped show out of it. so i dunno. i was pissed but whatever. definatly needs to the at the world congress center next year. It's good to see that there are that many interesting cars though. makes competition harder though.
Roll in was like watching a couple of monkeys bang a square peg in a round hole. It was unorganized and totally done wrong. They knew before hand how many people pre-registered. They were all huffy and puffy in the 1500 emails they sent before the show about being there ON TIME, HALF a tank of gas, being together, blah blah blah. Well, I know a lot of us did exactly as told and STILL had to wait 4-5 hours in the hot ass parking lot with numnuts on a scooter in charge without even as much as a walkie talkie to find out what the hold up is. That is slack as hell IMO. For the kind of money we all paid to be there, they should have had a much more organized.
They kept telling me that we were being held up because of people having to be turned back because too much gas, the ramp was backed up, they were moving cars around, etc. Well, Mickey came back and told me we were getting jacked around after he had been up there himself. I went up there myself after that only to confirm what he said. I came back and blew a fuse. Only after a phone call to our NOPI contact did we get escorted in. That IMO is BS. I saw a ton of cars outside Saturday.
The results were only a continuation of the fiasco from the day before. There were several people IMO that got robbed yet again this year. Several people did deserve their wins. Nick was one. Josh was another. Patrycja was another. My buddy Rick that won Best Lexus too. And there were several others. IMO there were also several big screw ups in the decisions. But you know what? That's the way the ball bounces and part of some of the shows. Comes with the territory. Congrats to all the winners regardless.
