but it's booked about 2 years in advance for spots (if you wanted to put a car in, good luck )
We got our 67 C-10 pick up in the show this coming year but will not be able to take it because well my car is needing to be finish that way Maybe I can race it this year. So entrys for 06 should be coming any day now & we are reserving a spot for it next year.
Anyways we make it a big cruise when we go down each year, in 03 we went to Diamond Lake & then cruised down via crater lake, Last year we stopped in just shy of Cali & then went to the Lava caves & freaked some of the gals out.

This year I think part of the crew is going to drive 101 down then over. The rest of us (if I get to go) will take 1-5 to eugene then hang over.

and for reno...i might be going to HAN this year.. but we shall see.
if you can't find any good rooms in Reno, you can always check out some rooms in Carson
or i can give you some numbers of people to party with.. they might house you for a night or two

yeah that's where all the single girls go ... the track

Hooters? like the "restaurant" or like there are plenty of "hooters" in the area? ... even though some girls that work at hooters are ok, i wouldn't want to spend my weekend nights there
