We can do. Mostly likely just spend more time at the Gilmore for Model A Days.

Last year they filled up in over a week. This year in under a week. Several years ago they had well over 800 cars and several (-me included) felt like we were in New York City bumper to bumper traffic.

While I feel badly that you did not get accepted, I'm not sure if that isn't actually a hidden blessing sometimes. Surely you have friends attending with their car(s) so you might be able to homebase with them and hang out at their car. When you don't have a vehicle (-or two) to 'babysit', it can give you time to go visit the houses and displays around Greenfield, and get rides with your friends. Heck, it is likely cheaper too, as pulling a trailer and buying the extra fuel to get there (-and home) can easily offset the gate ticket price. I have been going to OCF for maybe 10+ years now, and there is SO much going on that weekend that I have never seen up-close simply because I was doing other stuff. Likely you share the same? Maybe use that weekend to see the other stuff going on. Definitely consider coming even without a Model-A.
