9am - Shawn and I meet downstairs for today's event at GT Spec. Edmund, King, and Greg are on the way to meet us at GT Spec.
9:20am - Shawn and I meet with the staff of GT Spec and create the game plan for the day.
9:45am - Edmund and the gang are here and we begin setting up the display. It is 32 degrees with a chilly wind. But we are dry! No rain! And we are all very thankful for that.
12noon - The parking lot is a nice size so we should have a good event today. We are already starting to see Z's and other Nissans show up for the car show. This is really shaping up to be big.
2pm - Showtime! Shawn is grilling and Amanda is snapping photos. Edmund and the guys are parking cars. We have at least 80 cars here already. Things look good. It's pretty dang cold though.
3:45pm - Things are going well. It is so cold, hahaha.
4pm - Update.. We have over 80 cars, maybe 100. Shawn and Greg are still grilling and feeding the crowd. Amanda is collecting a ton of raffle cards and images. King and I are working on collecting and organizing the raffle prizes. The guys here at GT Spec have been really helpful. This looks like a full-blown car show.
5pm - We just finished the raffle, we gave away a ton of beanies, and people were going nuts for them. They were needed. I am surprised how many people stuck around for the raffle with how cold it is. I have never seen so many people with face masks on to keep warm. This has been a fun one though, lots of cars, lots of people, and lots of excitement over the new 370Z's.
6pm - Alright, our last tear down for a while. You know what is weird... I am going to miss it. Even though it is nowhere near fun to set up and tear down this display, I am going to miss it. What is wrong with me?
7:45pm - We are done with the tear down and loading of the trailer.
8pm - Time has come to end this journey for the time being. We are going on a small hiatus for the holidays and we will finish the last 2 events in the beginning of January in Florida. Shawn is on his way home to PA. Amanda and I are jumping on a Jet Blue flight from JFK to Long Beach, CA tomorrow morning. And we are so happy to get home to some California sunshine. See you guys in a couple weeks.
