Event Coverage "Bigger" place for the 30th Leadsled Spectacular

Saturday I talked to Jerry and Devona ***us at the Starbird show and they wanted
me to post on the HAMB that hey have already improved the Spectacular in Salina.

For the guys that have been to Salina before, you noticed a couple of things. One,
that the park was full of the kool Kustoms and Hot Rods. Two, there was no more
room for growth. It is amazing how much room you need to hold over a thousand
Kemps. This is a kool problem to have. The City of Salina has contacted the ***us
and they have agreed to move the show to a bigger, better and cruising friendly park.
The Oakdale park has better facilities and just as much shade as the other park.This
is a great move for the show and I can't wait to get up there. This year I’m predicting
1,500 Kempers...

For more info and pictures of the new area checkout their web site.

Thanks goes out to the City of Salina and to KKOA for finding us more room to cruize.

Happy Trails,

Mick

 

Kool!

 

Hmmmmmmmm, looks like it's better than Thomas park...especially with concrete roads/curbs...for those of us that were at the '09 event, we know Thomas Park was out of room...

The 30th should be "spectacular"...I'll be there...

R-

 

gee, does that mean we can't call any of the phone numbers on the pavillion?

 

great looking park!...looking forward to going.

 

Awesome! trying to get some of the Colorado Road Devils to attend this year...

 

cant wait going to be fun

 

should be good. Last year was pretty fun. so a little more room and better amenities cant hurt

 

lot of space gets wasted every year the way they set up the food vendors and trailer/stage

 

A great place to have it for sure.

I can't wait!

 

See ya there!

 

this is a much better venue, but I am sure it sill cost alot more to rent. So we need lots of cars to support it. Very fun show!

 

Looks good. Guess we'll see if it's "improved"

 

I Will be there this year,not sure if it will be my 49 Merc or my 57 Buick.

I LOVE the old park and am curently in the camp with the old dudes that don't like change BUT the new location looks kick ***. I'm once again looking forward to hanging out with tons of car pals at what is fast becoming the largest HAMB member gathering of the summer.

 

This park WILL be a huge inprovement...it is VERY close to downtown and the NEW water park that will be opening right across the street is a plus...HOPE TO SEE YA ALL THERE!!!

 

cant wait

 

Do you have to pre reg for this event? Or just show up

 

Its easier and cheapier to pre reg but you can show up and reg

 

I just may venture east to this show this year, any other west coasters going?

 

Sounds good!! A great show that I always enjoy going to...

I enjoy this show and plan on being there. More room to park will be a better show.

 

If I have to drag the '54 behind a bike I'll be there.

 

Hope my 54 is on the road by then aswell. be there either way. one of my favorite shows.

 

Bigger the better, nice park, allways a good time at this show, looking forward to it!

 

This is the park were it all started in Salina 30 years ago anyhows.Choose to cruz. I know dad remembers. Going to be a great new place for the show. I drove around it last Sunday and wished it was July already. I hope to drive the new merc there. If not old faithful will be.

 

Maybe I'll try that show in 2010, sounds like fun

Sounds cool

 

Damn, looks like an awesome place!! Looks like the Oliver crew might be heading back this year!!

 

I was thinking that it started in Wichita. Regardless, I pulled up some satelite views and checked out KKOA site pics. I think it will be a change for the better. I'll be there with skirts on. the car!

Anyone that picks up the car council book at the Rocky Manginelli swap meet in Lincoln, ingore the Thomas Park and year break info. I turned it in for publishing before I knew of the venue change.
