Some time ago we sent in our registrations as a group but have not heard anything since.
Will we get a confirmation as to being registered or what is the process.
Thanks

Had a blast this year and the years before
March 26, 2017
I signed up for the car show last year but was unable to bring my car back from Arizona to display it. I will be able to bring it back this time and was wondering if the fee I paid last year and did not get back a refund carry forward to this years show? Either way what about an application to attend.
