I will just be an attendee enjoying the air show and the Elio.
I don't work for Elio Motors as this forum is completely independent and I just volunteer my spare time, of which I likely have too much at the moment.

Can't have much spare time with all the time you dedicate to the forum. Thanks for your efforts, we truly appreciate them.

FYI about the Groupon deal. The way the Groupon web site works is a bit strange. The web site would not allow me to buy both the admission tickets and the parking pass in the same transaction so I had to do two transactions, one for the parking pass and another one for the admission tickets.
Also when you select the admission ticket it says one admission but when you go to the shopping cart it allows you to change the quantity to buy as many as you need.
After your purchase you then print out a voucher for each admission and will pick up your tickets at will call. For the parking pass you simply print out the voucher and present it to the parking attendant.

Weekend passes purchased are good for the Sat & Sun entire day & evening events. In efforts to reduce the costs for this special photographer pass, we will continue to provide the private preparation center, rest rooms, with non-alcoholic beverage services only. The remote photo location (Perch) will be at the crest of Herky Hill (Thunderbird Show Center).

The evening activities will feature exhibits, international foods, live bands, BBQ Classic competition, People’s Choice BBQ tasting and finishing up with the Night Airshow & Fireworks Grand Finale!
