Default Car Craft 2013 July 19 -21

So once a year Minnesota hosts our biggest car show of the year. It's Car Craft 2013. Any make/ year/ model car is welcome. I believe the preregistration cost is $48 and at the door it's somewhere in the $60's. Along with registration you get a window sticker for the 3 days, a license plate saying "car craft summer nationals," window sticker saying Car Craft Summer Nationals 2013, magnets, more stickers of various things, key chains, a special gift there choice (last year was a "Chevrolet key chain," a special black bag, and various other things I'm sure I'm forgetting.

Please again with my events ONLY HIT "GOING" IF YOUR ABSOLUTELY GOING ( with my group, I could careless if your "just going" ).

The actual event starts on July 19th which is a Friday. It begins at 6am and you HAVE TO BE AT YOUR MARKED SPOTS (which you can get Thursday *7/18/13* which I plan on doing) BY 8AM OR THEY BECOME FREE TO ANYONE WHO'S THERE WITH A CAR READY FOR A SPOT. I'M SERIOUS HERE FOLKS, SECURITY DOES NOT CARE. IF YOU AREN'T THERE AT 8AM TO GET YOUR SPOT IT'S FREE GAME SO I NOR ANYONE ELSE STAYING WITH ME ARE WAITING OR SAVING YOUR *** A SPOT. It goes through Sunday which is July 21st, and I believe the actual show ends at 5pm. So your welcome to come up here to MN early and hangout with me and others! We'll all be off work that entire week of Car Craft. I have people staying with me at my place and there coming early as well so your more then welcome to come Wednesday the 17th or Thursday the 18th with us to reserve our spots. Reserving spots for non-vendors starts at 3pm or 4pm. So if you plan on being here Thursday make sure you're here early enough to come by 3 or 4.

I plan on meeting at my house every morning ( by 6am or 6:30am ) before the event or if you get a hotel room closer than my place to the fair grounds you can just meet us there again BY 8AM. I'd rather have people meeting at my house so were organized, no one will be lost, we can all convoy to the fair grounds together, everything just goes that much smoother. My house is 20 minutes from the grounds so again it just makes it easier for registries that morning of Car Craft and getting to our spot with out getting confused or lost. We'll all be busy so helping people out will be difficult. If you need any additional information I live in Brooklyn Park, MN. The actual event is in St. Paul, MN. So if your looking for Hotels ( which are cheap up here ) you can look in either of those two towns.

We will also be doing photo's of our "groups" rides and anything else people have in mind for car related things. We can cruise downtown Minneapolis which is amazing, ask Kevin Jensen if you don't believe me. That's where all our night life takes place here in MN. Bars galore, clubs, strip clubs, you name it.

Also if you have any additional questions you can contact Kevin Jensen. If you don't know who that is just look on my friends list.

Planning this now so there's no; if's and's butt's or maybe's. Your either going or your not simple as that.

Hope to see everyone there!

Here's some minor information on it. P.S. disregard the "other additional information" on that page, it lists the wrong dates.

Here's our map layout as well

I wrote this on that page so i figured i'd paste it on here





Trust me if you think your car isnt nice enough to show there are much worse vehicles there than yours. seriously there are some old junkers all rusted out there. but usually ya only see a few. Ive been going for 9 years now. My dad and a fellow friend of my family have been the judges for 8 years now and its never been an upset even if the weather is bad we have always found a way to make it fun. from doing obstacle courses and speed traps, to fastest acceleration and braking, to burnout contest, to the bikini contest and awards at the end. This show has it all. All types of food places around the show, along with parts, motors, welders, and tools for your vehicles or even the miscellaneous stuff is here. its got it all and is always packed no matter what the weather. You will see vehicles that are amazing and jaw dropping all over. even a 1 of 1 super bee thats there every year.

If you have any questions about this event-show just ask me or message me and ill have the answer for you.
