It's a nice show. Went last year and had a great time. Some great old stuff as well as some outrageous new stuff.

Last year there was an F40 that had just returned from a Bonneville run. Salt encrusted, and a time slip from a couple of days before showing a top speed of 197.

As usual on the Central Coast, dress for cool temps in the morning and warm in the afternoon. Wear comfortable walking shoes. You'll walk a couple of miles before you get through the ticket booth. Bring lots of money for the concessions.

Im going, ive gone every year for 6 years now.

Were taking the lambo since its the anniversary for it.

Maybe i'll run into some of you, i get there before it opens to drop off cars with the lamborghini club.

I only walk around 2 times to check stuff out.

Im usually in the lamborghini section talking to friends that I only get to see once a year, or over talking to steve saleen at his booth.

There's a little VIP area by the lamborghini section, a white tent with a fence and 1 or 2 people at the entrance allowing/rejecting people in. You'll most likely find me in there as well
