Everyones excuse for not going to HIN?
So everyone who back out of HIN, what are your excuses? I'm pretty pissed. I spent $60 to sit in my apartment all night. I was hesitant to spend the $60 on registering for the show, but I did it for the club participation...and everyone backs out?
I know that I can't be the only one upset.

It was a weak showing for sure. We all could have easily won on our own. From now on I am doing the shows solo. If anyone wants to go, that's cool. But it won't be under the banner of the FGC. The only reason I ever signed up to do this big of a show was for the club participation, and that never happened. If we rolled in there with 2 or 3 cars, as the FGC, it would have been a joke. Now that I know what it's all about, I will be at the next one for sure. I should have gone on my own and I regret it.

I used to get that way when I was in some of my old car clubs. I would always be the only one to show up. Then I realized that really there's no point in getting pissed b/c 99% of the time I still had a damn good time and felt sorry that my club members missed it. I would always still put my clubs name down and if others showed up, great more then one, if not then o well at least I did my part in representing.

Thats kinda crappy that people would sign up and not go. Sorry to hear you all didnt have as good as a time. Wish I could have been there. As soon as my life is a little less hectic Im going to start signing up for a lot more shows that is if you want a stock G. hehehehe.

Dont get down Chuck.... Just watch Fast and the Furious and you will laugh. It might make you feel better. I know it worked for me.
my friend was in the show (white mazda 6 with carbon fiber hood and trunk) and he said there were 3 G's there all stock body, and the one that won best infiniti had rims and exhaust and thats it......he said i easily could have won.......im pissed, you guys should have gone
I was wondering where everyone was
i got into the show around 230 when everyone was doing prep work and i couldn't find chuck or ryan or pimpinpearl (josh i think) i thought all of you guys were gonna be in it. There was this 1 IP with gold rims and exhaust and another one sand color with the rear lip chuck has......nothing crazy though. i was dissapointed
Oh well there's always next year by then i'll def. be ready as will most others in the process.....
oh on a good note i did get to see Jon detailing some of the most expensive cars in there

=\ i was kinda sad to see only 3-4 g's there. Just got back from the drive myself. Grats to the winner, (white G, with seibon hood, rims/exhaust).... kinda shocked i didnt win, being that i had so much body work done.
