We have some of the original cars and guys coming too!

On your web site it says that the reliability run costs an additional $25 on top of the $65 to drive up the hill.
Is this correct?

 

Cheap at twice the price!

 

Reliability Run is included in the $65....

The $65 is for the Hot Rod Hill Climb on Saturday, that line up is full and closed for this year.

The Reliability Run is open still, pre-registeration price was $25 prior to 8/1/2014, it is now $30.

It's been years since I've been to an event out of state. This is going to be fun!

 

Can't wait. I'm getting my roadster race ready for the mountain.

 

I have a quick question. I am planning on Driving down my 50 Chevy from Wyoming for the event on Saturday. How early should I be there to get good parking downtown Georgetown? Is there any pre registration for the parking on Saturday? Thanks in advance!

John

 

John, things kick off at 8, no pre-reg parking.

 

Thanks for the information. I hope the weather stays nice!!

 

I'm planning on being up in Georgetown later on Friday and leaving Sunday. I need to find 3 vehicles to shoot for features while in town, so if a fat guy with a red hat and big camera comes lurking around your car, say hi, it's probably just me . Safe travels folks! Oh and keep an eye out on Sunday for the Motorcycle Cannonball coming west on I-70!!!
