Would there be any issues if one would have to leave early?

For safety and insurance purposes the lot itself will be closed between 10:30 AM (close of registration) and 2 PM (start of awards). During that time entrants would only be allowed to leave in the event of an unforeseen emergency.

Spectators are always welcome to come and go as they please.

Need to be present to win? Not that I expect to, but you never know. Trying to figure out if I can participate in this event and still make my other Father's Day plans. Likely have to leave right at 2.

Don't need to be present. We can make arrangements to connect and get you anything you win at a later date.

*edited to avoid confusion*

There are 3 parking lots on that property that form an L shape along the South (22nd street) and East (McDonalds drive) sides of the property.

The main lot will be for show cars only and sits in the South-East corner of the property.

The other two lots will be available to spectators:
  • McDonald's restaurant lot immediately to the West of the main lot.
  • Gibson's / Overflow lot immediately to the North of the main lot.

Had a nice time yesterday...hot as hell, but met some good folks and learned more about a few of the older models. Attendance was down from the pevious year, not sure if that was from the heat or something else?

Congrats to all the winners, wish I could have stuck around long enough to see how it went.
