I probably wouldn't if I lived 7 hr away. But I definitely would have for the shows before 08, actually got a trophy in 07!
In 08 NOPI canceled the nationals in Atlanta and the Motorsport Nationals were thrown together at the last minute and honestly they weren't very good. But this year the Motorsport Nationals have had a year to plan, and they have the Atlanta Motorspeedway where NOPI used to be, but not to long ago NOPI Motorsports announced they would be having a national show in GA this year, so we'll see...
On the other hand, if enough G drivers decide to come, who cares about the other cars!
NICO has a good showing every year, but with there being two shows on the same weekend I'm not sure what will happen.

The Motorsport Nationals (what replaced the NOPI Nationals last year) is at the Atlanta Motorspeedway (the old site of NOPI) on September 19, 20

NOPI is back this year with a show they're calling the "Tunerfest Shootout" (not the Nationals) on the 19th in a different location.

I would say if you're not going to enter your car, go to the NOPI show Saturday, then catch the Motorsport Nationals Sunday.

Yeah, just me but I've got someone from Panama City riding along. We're probably leaving out way before then, maybe even thursday, and we'll be taking either 75 if we leave from Tallahassee or going through Dothan and Coloumbus if we leave from PC. Sorry guys, I'd like to ride along but I guess I'll just see you at the show. If anything changes I'll let you know.
