    We were lucky that way, We had spaces held for us ahead of time and we have a kick ass area, We are right next to the CIRCUIT CITY booth, and Pepsi area so we will be in a high exposure area.

    but you guys still had a guy or two spread away from you...the majority of xlr8shen was together but two guys got put away from them...brett, you guys had an elite guy right in the middle of the xlr8shen pack. when all of xlr8shen was pulling in they thought they were elite for some reason, i guess they didn't notice the huge banners on all the cars.

    It was just getting to a point they were putting cars where they had space. The spots the x8leration guys were in, actually prevented 2 Elite members from getting in the show because they were supposed to be parked there. They were just trying to fill space and I dont blame them. Just be happy the guys got in and were not in the group of 50+ that got turned away at the dock.

    Yeah, but I think when people dont all roll in togther it makes it hard for them to do that, I mean look how many cars they had in thier last night. We all got to park togther because we rolled in togther but alot of people who came at one time and others at another had that happened to, They start to run out of places to put people

    Brett pretty much sums it up. If you want your entire team together, then you guys all need to arrive together at the same time. That even applied to us. We had all our guys together, but there were 4 guys who didn’t roll in at the same time as we did and needless to say 3 of them didn’t ever get in the show and the 1 that was allowed in the show was over near the IA booth. Just have to make sure you get there early and all together.

    We all arrived at the show together, but kinda towards the end of the roll-in. I'm sure if we rolled in earlier we would have gotten a better spot, or even all together.

    What I really didn't understand was why all the cars towards the back were sooo spread out. They should really have a huge area for team represenation or something.

    Those were NOPI's Spots and they refused to pack them in to help the show out.

    What sucks even more is when I went home and pulled the paper off my windshield to see that I wasn't even judged. It's all good though, maybe next time.

    They dont take paper from your car, They left a sticker on your window after the judge it, Did you have a yellow or orange sticker on your windshield? A little circle one?

    My papers were blank as well, but I did get a neon green circle sticker on my windshield.

    Dont you get it when you arrive? I have never gotten anything in the mail from HIN any year. You get the packet when you arrive and sign in at the tent before roll in.
