Hey everyone,

The All Mitsubishi Cookout and Car Show is fast approaching. I’m excited to announce that the All Mitsu Cookout is turning into the All Mitsu Weekend. We will be having a full weekend of events for Mitsu owners. All right here in Rogers, MN. On Saturday, August 23rd, we’ll be having a Dyno Challenge at DB Performance. After that we’ll have a car cruise to a drive-in restaurant. Then on Sunday will be the All Mitsu Cookout.

I’ll still working on some of the details like a hotel and some eating spots. But here is the tentative schedule:

Also new this year will be t-shirts. I’ve had a lot of people request them over the years. So here they come. I have the design created. Big thanks to Traci for creating it. Here is a preview:

I still haven’t finalized the pricing for the Cookout, t-shirts and the Dyno Challenge. So keep watching for more details on that. I have updated the main Cookout page with most of the details I know. Check it out at:

Hey everyone,

The All Mitsu Weekend is here! Time to get your Mitsu all shined up. The weather for the weekend is looking fantastic.
We've got 165 cars signed up. If you are coming to the Cookout, and haven't signed up yet, you still can. Just go to:
http://mn3s.org/lists/?p=subscribe&id=5

Then just pay the $5 when you get to the Cookout. We are also going to be doing slow drags during the Cookout around 1pm. The object is to go about 40 feet as slowly as possible without stopping or hitting your brakes (including e-brakes). So practice slipping that clutch. It will be $2 a run. Its a blast to watch.

If you are coming to the All Mitsu Cookout to just spectate because you aren't driving a Mitsu, there is a spectator parking lot on the back side of the school. Please park there. See map:

If you are planning on doing the cruise after the Dyno Challenge on Saturday, bring an FRS radio if you have one. The cruise to Wagner's Drive-In isn't super long, but the FRS radios help keep everyone together. And for both the Dyno Challenge and the All Mitsu Cookout, you should bring a lawn chair or two and some sunscreen if you burn easily. Looks like we are going to have some bright sunny skies this weekend.

See ya soon,
Curt

 

I have the pictures, dyno results and the trophy winners up. A big thanks to all my hard working volunteers. Also thanks to our main sponsor Brookdale Mitsubishi and our associate sponsor DB Performance. Here is the results and pictures:
