I ended up going. Turned around on the way when the snow was falling, but was pissed because I took a friday off work to clean the car, then took the saturday off from overtime to go to the show..... I WAS going to a show.....dammit... 
Ended up being surprised at the turnout. I got there about 9am, and the back lot was already full. Had to park in front of the shop. Ended up being about 130 cars or so there from what they announced. Got to watch some good dyno runs. I decided to dyno mine to get a decent baseline before doing more mods to it, and ended up getting 556rwhp SAE corrected... 558 was before, 571 std.. so its right where it was before. Highest dyno I saw up until that was a 492rwhp turbo 05' GT. I left after my dyno(was 3pm) and there was a 13' Shelby after me.. so I am sure he got more rwhp than I did.
Here are a couple pics I took while I was there. Yes it was cold, rainy, snowy(stopped about noon)..lots of dedicated car lovers
And a shot of my car... snow kept getting in the way

Yeah, I can't wait for more.... normal weather... One of these YEARS, you might be able to see if you like the tires/shifter etc on my car lol
One thing I do recommend though.. if you like the MGW, there IS more cabin noise with it.. more gear noise from the tranny. I recommend if you want to tone that down some, then get the optional back mount for the shifter.. it has the interchangeable poly bushing.. one harder for track use, and one softer for street use.. and shoule make things a little quieter. I am considering getting one on my shifter.. only $38.00 for current shifter owners to get.
