For those who have not attended a meet or maybe even a car show before, here are some tips:
Things to bring:
- Bring chairs. Yes, some people forget these.
- A small cooler is recommended for refreshments of your choice.
- Bring an EZup canopy if you have one. Shade for the group on car show day will come in handy.
- Bring some car cleaning stuff. I have a small box of glass cleaner, tire shine, duster, rags, paper towell, etc). Towels come in handy too if you need to dry your car off at any point.
For those driving long distance, I recommend having spare hoses and belts in the trunk. It can sometimes make an otherwise time consuming fix into a quick job. I also bring water, oil and tranny fluid just in case. Don't forget the tools also. Although some may like getting awards, you do not want the hard luck award.
Get some sleep before the weekend. There is no requirement to stay up late but it happens when you get all the Monte nuts together. We just chat for hours.
