I'll be at both of those events you are planning to attend. Are you going to be maning the both at the Autolite Nationals out at Sears' Point? I will probably be out there for Friday and Sunday.

As for HAN, I will be up there with the old goat cruisin around. Where is your booth going to be set up at? As for the females, get in an old car and go on one of the cruises, little hard not to find a certain someone for the night.

Why go to the Booth when you can go to the Store its self? Its only a few miles down the road in Sparks


Me & about 30 or so other people from Washington state are driving down & staying anywhere from the Harah (sp) to the Golden Phenix (sp) We will be there the whole week thought.

My husband & I are even driving our 99 LS1 car down Then after that we might sell it.

I usually go to the distribution center itself. They give you a discount for those that are up there for HAN. I was just asking where Brian's booth was going to be at.

I just got back night before last. Awesome event - I couldn't really find anyone that was going before I left. O well... didn't catch this thread soon enough. As for girls, you shouldn'tve had a problem - pleanty of good lookin ones walking the streets checkin out the cars there. There were so many amazing cars there I couldn't check them all out in 3 full days (was bein lagged a lil by family but o well). Hope everyone had as much or more fun than I did! First time I've seen a 65-67 goat in person and I saw a bunch!

Best plan is to get in there monday & leave on Saturday Thats what we do. That way you are there before the event starts & leave as its wraping up Hotels get booked up on Thursday & Friday nights with people coming in for Saturdays events ( I dont know why though everything is almost all done by then)

I was there, did you see me? Did everything I could with the amount of time I was up there. Friday parked it at the Atlantis and Saturday parked it at Victoria Square in Sparks. Swap meet sucked because it is nothing but vendors now. Lots of nice cars and ladies that lined the barriers for the cruise.

I mainly stayed around V street where most of the action was at. Went in to BBT like 3 to 4 times. Did Pepermill once & Al. 2twice. Did go down to summit racing though that was fun.

Next year it looks like we are driving this down
