HELP PLEASE

I'm hoping to bring my car tomorrow, but I flooded it and can't get it started. It was my fault flooding it :oops: , I turned it over without plugs, then poured oil down the carb but I couldn't get it started, It looks like It probably won't make it tomorrow but if there's anyone who could help me please do :)

cheers
