i heart road trips

 

Soooooo, what are you Wisconsin boys bringing?

 

my car was chopped last year out there ill be heading out for atleast one day to see whats going on and to see Bill Hines and Brad Masterson

 

We're trying to figure a way to drag the Kopper Kart out there. I'd really love to go and I know Mark and the rest of the gang would too. Hopefully.

 

I might GASP "trailer" my car out there. I'm still putting it back together.

 

What the Hell. Bring it on the trailer. Have some fun. Life is short.

 

What do you need? Trailer? Truck? Fill us in, maybe someone can help.

 

What are the good hotels to stay at? Looking to book some rooms

 

I'll be there. The park where they have this show in Salina Ks. is a great venue. Gary

 

Hey girls and boys, we will be partying at Rocky's Wednesday night , then heading north Thursday our normal deal meet at the coliseum probably that afternoon and caravan up , more details to come

Jerry is bringing in some really kool stuff this year and the Drags Friday night are always a gas.

 

My favorite show of the year!!!

If you're into real kustoms & hot rods you should be in Salina. We will be staying at the host hotel and the Merc is home and waiting to get up there. I wonder if they will hit the 1,000 car mark this year?

Happy Trails,

Mick

 

whats the best day to be there? and anyone know if there are any rooms still available in town?.

 

I'm coming but without the 32. It's coming apart this weekend for a repaint. It would be a miracle if I get it reassembled by then.

 

WAIT, do it after the show, you gotta drive up with us thursday.

 

I already took friday off. What time do the gates open? I should pre-register. My car isn't really a "custom" but its not stock for sure. can I still play?

 

7-8 AM normally...Pre-registration will save you $5.00...Lots of non-Kustom cars come in...and hot rods...altho it is mostly kustoms...

Hopefully, I'll be driving the '55 Caddy this year...

Mick, looking forward to seeing your Merc...

R-

 

are the hotels walking distance from the show? or do people come and go?

 

I'd say Saturday is probably the best day to be there, if you had to pick one. Have no idea about the rooms. With the number of hotels in Salina, just along the interstate and Highway 81, I'd be surprised if they were all booked up.

There are quite a few hotels within walking distance. From what I remember, it is pretty easy to drive in and out of the show, if you need to.

 

The host hotel is within walking distance, but it will be a long-ass hot-ass walk. There is a grass lot to park in right across the street from the park (does that make sense?) LOL.

 

I would guess the host hotel is full , its withing walking distance to the park, there is normally some coming and going around the park during the day but Saturday it will be packed with spectators. In an early post , the hotels in the area were listed.

 

Jay ,
You coming in Thursday or friday?

 

I will be there with my POS man can not wait!!!
