Even if you don't register, you are still welcome. The registration is intended to try to group the cars according to how many are coming (by make). I am sure they give a little buffer.. SO COME!!
I probably wont get there until around noon, so If there is a spot, Ill take it, otherwise Ill park with the VW's

C63, C300, 911TT x 3, 911 C2 x 2, 911SC, SL65, SL500, 280SL Plus some trucks
Its about 20% done. Lots of work to do before SEMA and CES. They need to hurry up. I bought a R8 V10 this week. And they are starting on Round II of my 996TT.
At least the wife's C300 will be done on Monday. The wheels that were on the C63 are actually for my wife's car. There will be new ones for the C63 widebody conversion.
Did they start it for you? Makes a nice sound with the Akrapovic exhaust.

PS: Did anyone take pictures? I wasn't going to go but I woke up early and decided to wash the wife's car and head down there. Bringing a camera was an afterthought.

I was kinda underwhelmed by the show, i thought there would have been some nicer cars, maybe more interesting sponsor booths

I was frickin pissed at that Devilicious food truck. 55 minutes for a hamburger.. the part that pissed me off is 35 minutes after I ordered, someone showed up with a huge pile of ground beef. I guess they took about 30 orders, and didn't even have the food to cook.
Beyond that, I think it could have been organized better, and perhaps more vendors. Seemed low budget. I remember truck runs years ago, and they were a blast. This felt more like a parking lot where some cars and 3 vendors showed up.. oh wait, that is what it was
