I really wanted to go last year, but I couln't get work off. Hope to be able to make it down this coming year though.

I just wanted to get the Hotel info and a possible meeting place on here...

Depending on how much people will attend, we will probably meet at the Mc Donald’s on Snelling. Its very easy to find. Just keep heading north on Snelling Ave past the State fair Grounds and you should see it.

I stayed at the Radisson Hotel in Roseville last year. Its close to the Fair Grounds and it's very nice for the price.

Radisson Hotel of Roseville
2540 North Cleveland Ave. , Roseville MN 55113
Reservations: (888) 201-1718 US Toll Free
Telephone: 651-636-4567
Fax: 651-636-7110

I would at least reserve a room Before June. This seems to be one of the preferred hotels for the car show people. Radisson's average rate per night would be somewhere around $100. If you're looking for somewhere a little cheaper, there is a Motel 6 down the street. Anything else you're on your own.

I'm going to try and make it this year. I guess I have no excuse, I only live 15min away.

 

[Halo]

im only going to see.....not entering my car...but it was fun

 

[Krazy_Town]

Just bumping this back up top.

 

[adio405]

I'll give it a go.

 

[Krazy_Town]

I just Emailed Curt to see if he plans to attend and help set things up again. I'll keep everyone posted.

I would like to know how many people are serious about attending with their vehicle in the show. I wont need 100% commitment until early-mid July.

 

[nate_0022]

You mean like actually put our cars in the show? Or just meet together at the show, because isn't it like $55 to enter your car into the show?

 

[Krazy_Town]

Yes, actually enter your car in the show. I will leave that decision up to the individual, if they think its worth showing off. I just need to know how many of us will be in the show to figure out if its worth getting there a day or two early and roping off a section for the weekend. Of course spectators/supporters are welcome too. You'll just have to park in the lot and ride in with one of us or walk to our spot from the parking lot.

Any other questions just let me know.

 

[Krazy_Town]

Update:

Curt will be attending the show. So far he has one commited and maybe a few others from MN 3S.

 

[nate_0022]

We have till the 18th of July to have our cars registered?

For the discount to be applied you can register before the 18th of July. Other wise you can send in a late entry or just register on the day of the show.

 

[Krazy_Town]

Any commitment for Car Craft yet? Entries? Spectators?

 

[nate_0022]

I'm pretty sure I'll be going down. I'm almost positive I'm not going to enter it though.

 

[curt_gendron]

I'll be entering my 3000GT Spyder again this year. There will be one or two others from MN 3/S too. I like the idea of meeting up at the McDonalds on Friday morning and then heading over. If we can meet together and roll in together on Friday morning, we can get a good spot for the whole weekend.

later,
Curt

 

[Krazy_Town]

Yes the Mc Donalds on Snelling will work good for a meeting spot again. As the day comes close we will set a time to meet there.

 

[nate_0022]

Sorry Krazy but I don't know your name. Are you entering your car or just a spectator?

 

[slvr/t]

I'll be there. I live really close. Nate if you want you can meet me that morning at my house, then go over with me.

 

[nate_0022]

Yeah that would be awesome. Just let me know what time you want to go, than I can plan accordingly.
