Many thanks to everyone else that recommended Sunday instead. I’ll plan on that as I like to get pictures and videos at each show I go to. The best show I’ve been to so far is Chryslers at Carlisle. I walked 8 miles and saw about half of it. Rod run in pigeon forge would be the next best. Been several times to that. I usually walk about 10 miles there to see most of it.

Great to have you joining us, Andy...you are certainly overdue!
First and foremeost, wear your most comfortable shows, cuz you are going to do some walking. Others are right; one day simply is not enough but of course, better than nothing. 550+ prime cars filling 400k square feet makes for a lot to see, and that doesn't even cover the seminars and presentations, 20+ unveilings, the live music, and jawing with friends.

I've gone as a spectator about 10 times. Always run down and back same day... 5hr drive down, 8 hours of walking the show, 5hr drive home.
This year will be my first time having a car there. |

I have gone the past 4-5 years and its pretty much tradition for me now. Its a 6-7 hour drive, but its about the closest thing to me thats this big of a car event. I have sold items and brought them there to exchange. Usually stuff thats expensive to ship or large. I have met quite a few Yenko site members. Always a decent variety of cars. Nice to have my truck if I want to go someplace but usually I use Uber to get around. Theres alot of good places to eat nearby!! Local Hotdog stands or Pizza is what I try to do. I usually stay at Double Tree and walk across the street.
I will stop by the Dykstra Parts booth and say hi

Thanks for the info everyone. I'm thinking to book my flights were I can get time in both days. Looks like the hotel shuttle will take me where I need to go so no need for a rental car. I just have to figure out what to do with my luggage until check-in at the hotel.
Definitely looking forward to meeting you guys and seeing the show! The A12 display should give me some inspiration to start working on my 69 Super Bee.

Andy, I usually stay at the Embassy. My fight lands at about 11am most of the time. I'm sure you're not going to be stuck with you luggage. Call your hotel for details...Joe
