If I recall correctly, Non-Lexus can come, but you'll be parked in a general parking area with the other non-Lexus...

To add to what was said below. :

As with EVERY large scale event, including bigger events like Evolution or HIN, there is an "assigned" roll in time. This is the best way to manage parking lot flow and parking logistics.

As for being registered that get's you into the venue. The space for you is assured. There is technically no BAD parking spot, all it means is that the spaces for the caravans have been defined since the Amped Staff is aware of how many are coming in and at the time planned. So you didn't hear it from me, but if you piggy back on to the back of a caravan, you are basically rolling in with them, but don't tell anyone.

If everyone to come in at random times, it would be difficult to do this.

So please sign up with a caravan otherwise you have to wait until event opens and then hope there is still parking. Registration is mainly used for getting an estimate of how many cars are coming to see if we have enough parking on the lot. In terms of guaranteeing a spot, I will let the staff jump in.

My guess is you will still be able to park on the lot, but you will be away from everyone else with the same model. Or maybe get stuck in some place less desirable.

TO CLARIFY:
REGISTERED + CARAVAN = GUARANTEED PARKING
1. To be able to park, you MUST be registered. NO EXCEPTIONS.
2. To ENSURE a parking spot, please sign up and arrive WITH a caravan.

As RMMGS4 said, in events with this many cars, the staff needs to plan for the most efficient way to park all the vehicles. Caravans are set so that 1. hopefully not everyone needs to get up super early to make their roll in times and 2. they are planned specifically to allow for timing to park 15-20 cars per caravan.
> > By doing this math, by the end of caravan roll ins, we will already have 75-120 cars by the time doors open. We have almost 150 cars registered and limited parking, so please join a caravan to guarantee a spot!!

Also, it is fun to be there to see everyone roll in, meet new people, see old faces, and watch the staff set up.

OTHER MAKES/MODELS
You are more than welcome to come if you don't drive a Lexus. We will be at a LEXUS DEALERSHIP and can change that
You will be able to park in the general parking area and please feel free to come and mingle with everyone!

**Registration updated. Sorry for the image getting smaller, PM me to confirm if you don't see your name.**

You need to register per the event instructions.

You can join the Central Valley caravan and post your question on that caravan thread. The caravan lead is coming from SAC as well.

Esther, it looks like I won't be able to make it out to the event. My SC won't be ready until the end of September...

So, please take my name off the list...

I just want to urge members to sign up for the caravans. It will make for easier parking situation. I see 160+ registered participants, and only about 30 signed up in caravans.
