Carshow at the BBQ
There will be a carshow at the BBQ, so make your ride look pretty. It will be $10 to enter, and registration begins Friday and ends at 1pm on the day of the BBQ. Judging will begin at 2pm. There will be 15 trophies given out. Here are the catagories, and I am going based on the headcount, so I don't want to hear any whinning.
Best Overall
Best: 6th, 5th, 4th, 1st thru 3rd Generation
2nd Place: 6th, 5th, 4th, 1st thru 3rd Generation
3rd Place: 6th, 5th, 4th, 1st thru 3rd Generation
Best ICE (In Car Entertainment)
Best Other Nissan/Infiniti

best DD is what will probably win the category.
I don't see anyone trailering in a show car.
no judges have been decided as of yet.

I'm pretty sure if you were able to drive your car to Maxus, for a long distance I'm sure that it is a DD, but that is not a bad idea for a catagory for next year. But I was limited on how many trophies to get since I didn't really get a for sure headcount till recently.
I won't say until the show, cuz I know people will start to shmooze them to get more points on their score card.

The best beater would have to have some 'character'. Rust spots, fluid leaks, missing paint spots, scrapes, bullet holes  functionality, amongst other things. i would def be in the running  |

Is there going to be a central car washing place before the show? Surely cars will be dirty considering the drive, and the track day. I thought last year they had a detail shop pretty much to themselves. I don't plan on showing my car... I was just curoius.

Don't get people's hopes up BlueMax..... I'm sure we'll find a car wash. Worse case scenario I know a few of us will be ready to mist light dirt cars with some quick detailer. the others might need some ONR.

There is a coin car wash about 3 miles east of the hotel, near the corner of Golf and Higgins road, or there is also another one right by Giodano's pizza about 3 miles south of the hotel.

For some reason I can't get the address for the DIY car wash, it says 705 W Higgns Rd, but there is no access from Higgins.
Basically heading from the hotel on Golf Rd, go west till you PASS Higgins. Bear right RIGHT after crossing Higgins. The car wash is on the right side, its called Busy Bee's Car wash. They got coin change machines there. Bring a chammy + $$$ with you and your set. For 10 bux you can clean the sh!t out of your car.

Yea... I spent about 8 hours on the exterior of may car yesterday, it was way past due. Pretty much neglected for the past year. I'm not entering in the car show, but I want it clean anyways... I'm afraid to see the bug damage from the 3 hour drive  |

Thanks for the car wash info. Can someone give me info on the BBQ/show: do I have to pay $10 to even show up, or can I just come down but not enter the show? Also, is there any kind of entrance fee to Busse Woods? Finally, what's the deal with BBQ food and how much? I've read a lot of threads in this forum but those questions remain unanswered.

No entrance fee for Busse Woods. You don't have to pay to show up. We're just asking for a $5 to eat all you want. If you want some booze that's another $5 for the keg. We will have brats, burger, chicken, and some other things. No fee for the car show, but there will be a raffle of a few things.

Hey guys don't be afraid to enter the show, the judging won't be so harsh, you guys will be the judges this time around. So bascially if the crowd likes your car, you may win a trophy.

Sounds great, Hector. I think I will come on down tomorrow.
EDIT: one final question that I didn't see addressed anywhere. Where in Busse Woods is the show going to be and which entrance to use?
