Default They didnt let my car into HIN =[

Well this is what went down.

Last week I emailed Edgar, the Coordinator, asking him what time we need to show up for staging. He says there will a confirmation letter coming via email at the end of the week. I never got any email from him and had to email him last night again about it. This morning I check my inbox and it said meet today between 2 and 6pm. Im like WTF! Its already 12!

I washed and prepped my car. When I was done it was 3 o'clock. I leave my house at 3:30 and got there at 5. The restriction was you have to have 1/4 a tank of gas to get in. So one of the staff tells me to just drive around, kill some gas and be back before 6.

I drove around for about 30 minutes and killed two bars of gas and came back. I drive up to the check in and said ok im at 1/4 of a tank now. They say, "sorry we're not accepting anymore cars because we're full." Im like wtf, I was here at 5, you gotta let me in. Again they said they couldn't do anything cause it was full.

They ended up giving me 2 free passes for tomorrow's show and said they were going to move my registration to the HIN show in Pleasington. Yea, thanks for that but damn, I drove 1 1/2 hours to get there and you're going to not let me in? I was super excited for this and I got let down. F*ck my life =[

Sucks what they did to you, but your not missing out on much.

I cant believe they still charge what they do to get in there. Its less and less worth it every year..I hope SMPD isn't out there ready for a field day when everyone leaves tonight too....

Im sitting my happy *** at home with the car downstairs. Lastnight I was out and they were crawling all over the place waiting for people to get out of the movies. Horrible weekend to be around here with Fast and the Furious out, and an event like this going on only blocks away.

I just got back from the show. Its wasn't that bad, it would have been better if my car was in it. Haha.

When I got there I passed like 5 cars pulled over, when I was leaving I passed like 3 cars pulled over and plenty of SMPD waiting.

****** ***** motherfukers...I knew it. Living here is shitty, yet I know this.. And I know alternate routes to get around town.

Anywhere on El Camino is gonna be all bad tonight. They probably have E. Hillsdale all watched as people get on the freeway...
