i heard that it was OK
but a spectator and a partcipant's view tend to vary.
Leisa and S. 4 Life NM?
HIN has been doing that for years.
If you come late and try to register and your car is not all that, you will get turned down.
If your car looks good you are in.
i thought it was lame. but thats just me.....plus this is the only time i havent modeled and maybe its more fun when u model instead of just walk around
who saw the rock crawlin jeep over by the Toyo tire trailer!!!! that thing was sick....as for the rest of the cars....they were cool
It was cool. I went with the guys from xlr8shen and chuck, it was cool to actually see everyone in person I didn't want to be the lame kid who was like im "so and so" from IA but I saw alot of people there, bretts car looked real nice, IA.com was reppin hard last night...
good turnout
i personally liked last year better...but dats jus me

Nice to meet you finally! Hope to see you around some more.
COUld've been better...
BTW, here is what I thought of HIN...I like driving better.
haha.. there could've been alot more cars.. but I heard why there weren't alot but all people had to do was siphon some gas out of their tanks and then it would've been no problem...
It was good, but all the modles forgot to bring da ass.
HIN was bootyless. The honnys walking arround looked better.
Sunday's closing ceremonies were much better. At least that's what a few of the girls told me. Later, QD.
FOR MORE INFO, CLICK THE PIC!!!
Yeah same here.. Thanks for the tips and I will PM you when im sure when Im ganna be making my purchase...

I was typically disappointed. I made a reply in events forum topic on HIN so I wont retype the same things, regardless heres some other ideas,
-There MUST be a turn-away at the door policy for weak cars. (like ICSA has) Sorry, I saw too many space takers that had NO reason being there. I'll take my chances that I may get turned away, I'm fine w/ that, but OEM wheels on OEM cars w/ decal kits IS NOT a HOT IMPORT at night......or daytime.
-The judging was questionable. (Not saying wrong, or bad...but worth questioning)
-The show is 2 hrs too long
-We missed 1/2 the awards ceremonies because they told us they started at 12:00.....(thats 2 yrs in a row)
-Best of Show Elite ...how did Jay beat the Integra, when he lost to it in Charlotte. What changed?!..A 935 sticker on the Integra is the only diff I saw.
All in all, HIN is alot like college, you need to go to have fun, if you go for its original purpose, it'll become a necessary evil you dread.

i was extremely unimpressed with the way the registration/roll-in process worked and will definately not be attending again. i won't go into too many details but it basically involved me and my entire team pre-registering and arriving on time (a little before 5) friday but getting "left off the list" and waiting until 8:30 when the fire marshall closed the doors. we came back the next morning at 8:00 to assure plenty of breathing room to get in at 2:00 when 50 additional cars were supposed to get in, but got completely shafted as that number was cut down to 10 or so which were random people that jumped to the front of the line right before 2:00 (everytime we started to move that direction, the sheriffs threatened to tow us or give us a ticket). on top of that, no one could give me a definitive answer on how to get my money back so i'm still out almost $120 from registering 2 cars and more than that from missing an entire day of work for no reason at all. they really need to get their act together next time, this was an extremly unprofessional way to run an event.
John, nice to finally meet you as well -- sorry for drooling on your car
I was very unhappy with the registration process as well and a couple of guys from our club didn't get in either. This is after we CAMPED OUT IN THE LOADING DOCK on Fri night just to get in line early on Sat after being turned away on Friday. Cody, the cars they were letting in before you guys were the vendor cars.
I will def. attend next year's show to show my support for the community and drool over the cars. As for showing, we'll see...may just keep throwing my registration money at the smaller local SE shows.
heres my experience w/ hin this year:i liked it, i thought it was better than last year. i knew i wouldnt place, but maybe next year will be different since ive got some things in the process of happening over the next few months. the roll in process did suck, i have to say though, i was one of the first 10 cars in the building (im always early). i warned my club members that they needed to get their early or they would be screwed, but as always, no one listens to me. somehow most of them got in, but just barely. i heard they were turning away skylines and some of the cars at the show that they let in were STOCK. that part, i didnt understand. i thought the cars were awesome, the majority of them were alot better than the cars they had last year. i plan on going again. i have to agree w/ whoever said it, that HIN left the ass at home, cuz barely any of the models had anything to show off IMO. i think what also made a differnce this year, is how they had the taped boxes and everything sectioned off, plus alot more vendors. i think thats how the extra spots were lost also. and the way some of the cars were parked. we fit 5 cars in our little box, we didnt have much extra room, but we made the most of our space.
but i had fun!!ill be back next year

Yeah I hope the roll in is better next year, we got there at 2:00 and sat in a line until after 5:30, Thats just total BS

I was disappointed, I didn't see anything that really impressed me. Plus my camera fucked up on me so I couldn't take any pics. That sucked!!!
...... それらを結合できなかったらそれらを!!! 殺しなさい!
was it $25 last year? if not, what was different about this year?
Loved the show Hated getting the door slammed in my face when I was pre-registered and had a spot reserved......Oh well! At least I didn't pay as much as some of the people did the day before.
I was in FL snorkeling over coral reef during the show..... Much better IMO!
