Hey guys,
The Car Show is Seattle was great! In a way. I registered online and had all that set and I was good to go. I headed out to the show Saturday morning I went and got gas and then went to the grounds. They did a fuel inspection on my Excel and they said I needed a quarter of a tank or less. I had a full tank. Then they asked if my gas gauge went down after the car was shut off. It did so they passed me. Then they told me to wait outside for my friend so we could head in together. Later my friend go there and they weren't letting anyone in with more then a quarter of a tank. I went to go in again and they said no! I got fricken pissed and 2 hours later my 40 MPG car was still on Full after running. I just said f'it I want my money back, no one told me I needed a quarter of a tank! There was like 20 cars driving around the place trying to get there tanks dry. No way was I going to use up 400 miles in such a small area. I used 23 getting there from my house in South Seattle. So I got my money back and they let me in for free. I walked around, took some photo's, got pissed cause I ran out of film before I took a picture of a Blue Tiburon with white interior. Oh well, he has a flier for the site. Hopefully he'll be online. Check you all later. I'll have a report and the photo's online in a day or two... Seeya.
