Green Bastard

Thats it right there. The ballots are included in the registration packets. Hopefully it is pretty fair this way. The way I look at it, those who are voting, will also have some knowledge of the vehicles involved. i.e. they wont vote for a car just because it is their favorite color. Also the opportunity for "ballot stuffing" is nil. All and all, it is a pretty laid back casual show. No official judges, no security guards, no lawyers.

Why hello there.:cheeky: My name is Jordan, I am vice president of DatsunsNW. Bruce contacted me yesterday to get clarification as to what you CAN do the day of the 2008 show. I have read through the thread, and most of what I see is right on. For 5$ you drive in, park in the grassy area to the left, and enjoy a day of Datsun with your peers. Your car is eligible for a peoples choice award, but not the class awards. You will not be able to vote on the pre-registered cars. The pre-registered cars are parked in their respective classes in a seperate area just a few steps away. We strongly encourage pre-registration, so cars can be classed fairly and judged against their peers. It makes parking, showing, and voting easier for us. I am sorry that beautiful cars are not eligible for trophys if not pre-registered, but everyone had an equal chance to register. That being said, there are many cars that show up the day of, pay the $5 and come in. We welcome those who do, and have plenty of room to accomidate. In past years we have had at least as many, if not more cars do so. It is a great and welcome addition to the show, and I encourage all to come by. The show is still growing, and we are adding more activities every year. You see we will be having the dyno both days, on site food available, movies inside during the day, and more swap meet vendors. Saturday is a good day to score parts, get on the Dyno, come to the banquet, and buy mechandise before it sells out. Now if you made it this far, you may have noticed that I mentioned Canby 2008 in my third sentence. This is because things MAY change next year and in future years. We are working on a system that WILL allow people to get their cars eligible for trophies, park with the rest of the "show" cars, vote, and be registered in the proper classes, if they show up on the day of the show. We have spoke of this system at a club meeting, but it is NOT for this years show (2008). I believe this is where the confusion has come from that is present in the thread. Beandip, you are descibing what we are working on, however, it will NOT be happening this year. Thanks for your interest in the show. I will subscribe to this thread, and will try to clear up any confusion that I have created. :nervous:
