    If there is a flea market to go along with the show I might try to get there. I've never been to a Right Coast event.:)

    Aug 6th - Rain Date is Aug 13th
    "Cruisin on Main" - Main Street - Manchester, CT - Get yourself to Route 6 in RI and follow it west for a whole bunch of miles and you'll run right into it.

    Nice Show - lots of cars 500 or so - lots of Muscle (Can you say Camaro & Chevelle:rolleyes: ) & Street Rods though. There are usually a few Traditional cars there - but not a bunch.

    Good day trip if you're into that type of thing.

    I might check out the RightCoast event in Berlin on the 19/20 as well

    Really??? - didn't seem like that many. Guess I'm a bad judge @ numbers.

    They do claim to be the biggest 1-day "Cruise" on the East Coast

    If you had to choose only one day I would say Saturday. There will be vendors- but not as vast as in Syracuse of course. Sat night there are burnouts and flames and stuff too.
    Not sure where my booth will be but it shouldnt be too far from the DuPOnt Hot Hues booth...

    Historically the evening events start around 6pm. Burnouts first ,flames are nightfall.

    Skip- YOURE afraid of a little dust?! LOL... it washes off you know and its only bad if it gets really windy.Topsfield gets that way too.
    by the way, the link you posted is to the Berlin Fair NOT the Eastern States show. Good for directions though.
    Info on the show can be found at: www.rigthcoastcars.com

    Lenny,are they really planning evening events for this show? The website says nothing about entertainment except the band on Saturday.
    We'll be there Friday about noon. I hope there's enough to keep us there all weekend.

    Yea, I know.

    I posted the link to the fairgrounds so people could go take a look.

    Dust? You forget. I have a fresh LACQUER paint job that was nearly 30 years in the making. :)
