As many of you guys know from past experiences with this show it is a good one. I realize that this will be a tight squeeze do to Carlisle the week after and Virginia Beach the following week but this is a great show and it is for Charity. We have always enjoyed this show and I do not see any reason why this year would be any different.

Date: May 2nd
Location: University of Maryland College Park
Cost: $1 or 1 can of food

 

I was waiting to make a thread until their flier was created, but here's the rest of the info...

The Last four years meets were great successes. Thank you to everyone who came out and supported us! We look forward to seeing you all again!

 

Looks like fun

 

Anyone have a booth they want to put a couple cars in this year? We were in ISP's last year. Good time.

 

Hey since you're new to the area, check out my pics from last year. I think you'd enjoy it, a couple thousand cars come out

They have a new rule this year...no tents. Although I'm not sure how that works with sponsors.

 

Assuming I have my car back by then, I will probably be up for going!

 

Thanks Tonk, I will check them out

 

NO TENTS? That is what saved us from the savage sun last year!! It is a great show but I get back from Aruba on Saturday so don't know if I can make this...I'll try though.

 

Bump! It's this weekend. Should be a few thousand cars coming.

 

They really get that many cars on campus? No joke?

Edit: Can't be, that's Carlisle huge...few hundred?

 

I am in

 

Yeah, the # gets bigger with the telling. They usually say 2500 or more. I've been there 3 times and I'd say 1000 or less.

When I've been it's been in the parking lot around one of the gyms (Cole Field House?) so there are a lot of spaces, so yeah, 1000 is doable. A few thousand? No.

I used to work at the big Ocean City car show that's held each year the weekend before Memorial Day weekend. It uses the inlet lot and the convention center lot. The inlet lot has a hard number of 1500 spaces, and they'd all be full. Looks wise, this show doesn't seem to me to be that big.

But it's ok. Younger crowd, mostly tuner cars.

 

Which of course may beg the question...bringing any of those models with you?

Excuse me while I go hide from the wife...

 

Maybe...

 

A bunch of us are meeting at the circuitcity spot at 10am and then driving up.
