Be there early.....bring LOTS to drink to stay cool and brink LOTS of sunscreen!

It is a very good show with just about everything possible to see from street legal funny cars to stock muscle cars and lots of them. It gets very crowded with people so you want to make sure you get there early and get a good parking spot IN THE SHADE. I will look for you and your car.

Tommy,

It`s a great time....and lots to see. Take lots of pictures ...especially if you happen to see any Post Sedans.

Dan.

You really wanna know that???? Like between 5-6 a.m. at the latest or at least in years past. You will just sit in line but at least you will get a good parking spot. They have very adequate parking for truck/trailer on the South East side of the fair grounds.

I'll be there camera in hand especially now that you helped me out Bruce. I got blinded by some of the headlight shots from last week so I may have to stick with the whole car this time......






NOT!

Tail lite shots are safer.................. unless you hear "Beep..........Beep............Beep"

Then watch out, she's backin' up!
