Looking for a hotel room?

The official hotel for this year is the Hampton Inn, in Rogers. There phone number is 763-425-0044. We have a group rate of $74 a night for single king bed rooms. We have a block of ten rooms set aside for us. When you call, mention "the car show in Rogers", to get the discounted rate. There regular rate is $109. This is very nice hotel and its brand new. They do have some suites with king beds and a pull out coach. They are available for a discount rate of $119, but they are not part of our block of rooms. So if you need more room, you can get these too. If you have any issue getting the discounted rate, try and talk to Lindsay. She is the group sales manager. Book your room early. We can only hold these rooms until August 8th.

Update 7/7/08:
Just announced is the addition of a Dyno Challenge on Saturday the 23rd at DB Performance in Rogers. DB is less than a mile away from the Cookout site. The All Mitsu Cookout is now the All Mitsu Weekend!! In addition to the Dyno Challenge, we'll have a swap meet at DB at the same time. Plus, that Saturday evening, we'll have a cruise leaving from DB at 5pm. We'll hit some country roads and find a place for dinner.

Another announcement is t-shirts. I'm working on getting t-shirts made for the big 10th annual All Mitsu Cookout. Click on the logo to see it bigger:

Update 7/14/08:
The pricing for the Dyno Challenge will be $60 for three pulls. To make things easier, you can pay cash at the event. But if you want to dyno, send me an e-mail at cgendron@mail.com and I'll add you to the list. In your e-mail, give me your full name, car year, make, and model. Thanks.
