    Congrats on the NOPI booth, I will check it out this weekend. Marcell, sorry about your car still being at the paint booth. Do they need any help. I think I am pretty good with a paintbrush or a spray can

    sorry trycja. it was bound to happen. the NOPI people should have watched your car better. they cant prevent everyone from touching it but why the hell the let people sit in it is beyond me. and how did the trunk latch get broke at a car show? only thing i can think is that someone tampered with it or slamming the trunk up and down. either way its NOPI personnel fault that this happened to your ride. did u go off on them?

    I told Arash that either I can handle it or he can, so I guess he is. I'm am just beyond words at this point. You know last year they had those stanchions up so I figured they'd do the same this year. Boy was I wrong. I just wanna pick up my car this evening and be done with them. Lesson lived and learned.

    Sorry to hear girl. I was at the show last sunday and they had no regard for the cars that were there with the exception of the ferrari's, Bentleys, and maserati's that were roped completly off.

    I know how you feel. I went to the show and I found a little kid on my Motorcycle with the mother taking a picture. (mind you my motorcycle is behind two sets of chains) When I asked her not to do that she said it was ok. I said I do not know how that is when it is my bike. If permission was asked I probably would have said yes but just to assume that they could pissed me off!

    The prob is most car manufacturers WANT people to get in thier cars, they need them to so they can sell them. After a while, the line gets blurred, and they just get in everyones stuff. Nopi Nats has these people too. They climb over door prop bars to get in on my VW, and Jeff Gs car. People are DUMB, and disrespectful.

    Well all I can do at this point is bitch like a mofo. I was yelling at everybody when I went up there Saturday. People just opening doors like they owned the shit. Anyway, thanks for the support. And yeah, never again dude. Unless I'm there 24/7 watching. We didn't spend all this time and money to have some fat ass sit in our shit.

    There was a Panos car in the same booth with me and someone stole the shifter knob out of it on the first Saturday. The owner was sooooo pissed but hey, that's people for you.

    My bike is now safe a sound in my garage but she is dirty as hell. I got less dirty on it at the NOPI Nats!
