Upon arrival to the museum, please follow EOS 8 staff instruction and line up your Lexus according to your model. We will sort you into groups to enter the facility. Also, please don’t rev your engine as there are hotels nearby.
Gate will be opened at 8:30am to allow members roll-in.

A separate email will also be sent to all registered members about the information.

See you all on Sunday!

Please note, your Lexus will be parked at a secured airport area of the museum and only accessible if you have the admission to the museum. Gate will be closed after 10am (or earlier)

It's noted that the gates may close earlier than 10am. Any idea on how much earlier?

If we fill up the lot before that, we will close and lock the gate. Technically speaking, ONLY EOS 8 participants and museum attendees can access our EOS area.

On the fun side, a kid may come to you and ask you "If this Lexus flies?..."

Two questions...

1. Is there an area for each car class (canopy of some sort) the registered members can hangout? I hear its going to be a hot day!

2. Can we bring chairs, food, and drinks?

You don't need to bring chairs. There is plenty of space for you to seat and hang around.

Besides, you can always go indoor to visit the museum and enjoy the air-conditioning

The Canopy area will be dedicated to our sponsors. As you can see layout, we do not have much space for canopy around the parking area (besides, I don't think the airport will like it.... especially for those right next to the taxiway..)

I am sure you can bring food and drinks, but you probably need to consume them outdoor....

Wait, I was under the impression that by purchasing a reserved area ticket, I can come in right before EOS starts (~9:45am). So since it is a reserved area and other members and myself who may not have not shown up yet, how would it fill up? Sorry, I don't think I can make it right when the gate opens @ 8:30am and I'm just a little confused and worried you guys might lock me out!

P.S. I would tell the kid, you can watch me try!

For registered attendees we have a spot for you inside the area. But it will be better if you come sooner than 9:45 AM.

Awesome!

I need visuals.


So, about checking in: I'm probably gonna be late, getting to EOS by Noon.

Any trouble with that?

If you're not registered, can you still show up sans car?
