It is just my Humble Opinion, but I have decided that getting there early does not help the odds of one winning anything, and in fact might even hinder.
I had my car 'under' the covered area, and the cars that parallel parked IN FRONT, like a "T" or perpendicular to the 10 or so that fit under the cover actually looked better. Shinier in the sun, brighter, more visible, less hidden than the ones underneath.
If i were doing it again.... i'd arrive about 10 or later, (about an hour before registration closed) and would take a nice parallel place in front of the cobras. Spend the extra time at home polishing!!!
but... if ya'll wanna get there at 8 go right ahead!
i think my bridesmaids dress should be hot pink.....
