From what I've been able to find out from the folks running the show, you show up with your models on Saturday the 26th and register them. It's the tent right next to the main merchandise tent. No pre-registration, no printable forms. It's an NNL style contest from what I gather. All categories are "People's Choice".
I love looking at your very well-done weathered builds. It takes way more effort and creativity do build this way, than to lay down a bright shiny paint job. I had so much fun rusting and weathering my 67 Impala, that I really want to build a few more in that style.
I would love to go, but NC is a bit far (Lol). I used to spend time in Dayton every summer, with friends of my parents. Besides, my credit cards are still trying to recover from my August trip back home to Ohio.
