    All Mitsu Cookout -- August 26, 2007 -- Rogers, MN



    Plans are underway for the 2007 All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show. This year's event will be happening on Sunday, August 26th, at the Rogers Middle School, in Rogers, MN. The event will run from 11am to 4pm. We've got our two main sponsors on board again, Brookdale Mitsubishi and LSE Performance. I'm also confident that we'll beat last year's record of 142 Mitsus. All the details about the All Mitsu Cookout can be found at: http://cookout.mn3s.org

    If you are planning on coming, take a minute and fill out the sign up form at:

    Hope to see you there,
    Curt

    Hey everyone,

    We've had a lot of sign ups in the last week. We have 64 cars signed up so far. That's great. I also have a flyer put together at: http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-flyer.doc

    I always keep a hand full of these in my car in case I spot a nice Mitsu somewhere. Also, if you work at a business that is car oriented, maybe print a few off and have them laying on your counter or pin one up. Any advertising you can do will help. Every year we get a few people that come to the Cookout that had no idea it existed before they got a flyer.

    Thanks,
    Curt

    Hey everyone,

    I received a bunch of prizes from Corporate Mitsubishi last week. Got some t-shirts, hats, a big cooler, and some smaller items.

    Sign ups are looking good. I just updated the page. We've got 74 signed up so far: http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

    And don't forget to hand out a flyer when ever you come across a nice Mitsu. They really do help spread the word.

    Thanks,
    Curt

    I just updated the sign up page. We are up to 81 sign ups!!

    The price for the Cookout is $5 again. That includes you, your car, one passenger, and all the food you can eat. It would really help if you prepaid using paypal. My paypal is [email protected] If you pre-pay it helps speed up the registration process the day of the show. If you don't have paypal, don't sweat it, just pay at the event.

    We are less than seven weeks away now!

    Thanks to those that sent a paypal in the last week or so. I've had a bunch of them. Looks like we have 97 sign ups. The updated list is at:
    http://mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

    We are still on pace to get around 150 cars there, which is awesome. But don't forget to keep bugging your friends that own Mitsus. Lets try and get as many cars as we can together. Its gonna be fun!

    Hey everyone,

    The sign-ups keep piling up. We are up to 124 cars on the list. The current list is at:
    http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

    We are a little over three weeks away now. If you are planning on coming, don't forget to sign up:
    http://mn3s.org/lists/?p=subscribe&id=5

    One thing to start thinking about is your car sign. You can fill out your sign ahead of time. Then when you check in, the day of the show, all I need to give you is your car number. Here is the car sign you can download:
    http://www.mn3s.org/car-sign.doc

    And my example sign can be found here:
    http://www.mn3s.org/car-sign-curt.doc

    Thanks,
    Curt

    Hey everyone,

    Only eleven days away now! We are up to 145 cars on the list. The current list is at:
    http://www.mn3s.org/cookout-list.html

    If you are planning on coming to the All Mitsu Cookout, here are a few things to remember:

    1) Sign-up online. The page is at:
    http://mn3s.org/lists/?p=subscribe&id=5

    2) If you have Paypal, send me your $5 registration to [email protected] (no credit cards please)

    3) Fill out your car sign ahead of time. Its saves a lot of time in the registration line. Download the sign at:
    http://www.mn3s.org/car-sign.doc

    And my example sign can be found here:
    http://www.mn3s.org/car-sign-curt.doc


    Once again, here are the classes for the show this year:

    Best 90-94 DSM
    Best 95-99 DSM
    Best 00-05 Eclipse/Stratus coupe
    Best 91-93 3/S
    Best 94-99 3/S
    Best Evo
    Best Classic Mitsu (89 and older)
    Best Other Mitsu
    The "Gene Helms" Cleanest Car Overall

    And finally, we are going to have a little fun competition this year. We are going to have a slow drags race. Two lines will be drawn in the parking lot. (40 feet apart) The objective will be to go from one line to the next as slowly as possible without stopping or hitting your brakes. Those with really soft clutch pedals will have good cars for this race. We'll probably do the slow drags around 2:30pm. So practice driving like a granny. ;)

    Hey everyone,

    The All Mitsu Cookut is right around the corner. Its this Sunday! We've had a big surge in sign ups. We have 162 cars signed up now. Thats great! If you are still planning on coming, its not to late to sign up.

    If you are coming to the Cookout, here are some reminders:

    1) Sign-up online. The page is at:
    http://mn3s.org/lists/?p=subscribe&id=5

    2) If you have Paypal, send me your $5 registration to [email protected] (no credit cards please)

    3) Fill out your car sign ahead of time. Its saves a lot of time in the registration line. Download the sign at:
    http://www.mn3s.org/car-sign.doc

    And my example sign can be found here:
    http://www.mn3s.org/car-sign-curt.doc

    4) Bring some lawn chairs for hanging out and bring your appetite! We'll have plenty of food.

    Also, if you are just coming to spectate, there is a seperate spectator lot on the back side of the school. So don't turn at the stop light at the school. Go past that and take your next right and go behind the school. The lot behind the school is for specators. The front lot is for participants.

    Thanks,
    Curt

    Hey everyone,

    The All Mitsu Cookout is upon us. Only 48 hours away now! We've got 174 sign ups. I'm sure that will climb a little more. And even if you get up on Sunday and decide, "Jeez, I should go to that Cookout thingy", you can still show up the day of the show and register and pay. We can handle walk ups.

    When you get to the Rogers Middle School, turn right at the stoplight. That front lot is for the participants. If you are coming just to spectate, or you don't have a Mitsu, you should park in the spectator lot. So drive past the stoplight and take the next right. The lot behind the school is for spectators. Here is a map to help:
    http://mn3s.org/cookout-map.jpg

    As I mentioned before, we'll be doing a slow drags competition around 2:30pm. Anyone can enter. You try and go from one point to another as slow as you can without stopping or hitting the brakes (e-brake included) Longest time wins a t-shirt. We'll ask for a $2 fee to enter the slow drags. Should be a lot of fun.

    You can still pre-pay me the $5 registration fee. Send a paypal to [email protected] If you don't have paypal, don't sweat it. Just pay at the show.

    Also, you can be prepared by making your car sign before the show. And bring a lawn chair for hanging out. The weather is looking great too. The Cookout goes from 11am to 4pm this Sunday. Get ready for the biggest and best All Mitsu Cookout yet!!

    Curt
