    Dont know if anything is going on before or after but there will be a hell of alot of cars there for sure
     
  3. Been down there the last three yrs (usually drive down Friday night after work. This year hoping to be driving, or at least trailering over the hill, the '39), there's a number of local car clubs that have before, later that night, and Sunday get-togethers. Punch up various hot rod chat sites and post your question and you'll eventually find the club get-togethers that are inviting anyone and everyone.

    The show itself is a ton of cars (from Rad to Mad, and everything in-between), and drag racing for timeslips at the dragstrip located at the back of the parking lot. Bands, tons of food, vendors, pin-up girls by the dozens taking pics with cars and... definately an 8:00-5:00 full day. Bring your digital camera and plenty of rechargeable batteries. Have fun.

    This show is on my list of "must attend" every year. You will not be sorry. Even when there is a huge possibility of rain, tons of cars still show up.

It gets bigger every year...As far as anything to do the night before for me its just wash the car and try getting some sleep which usually doesnt happen haha

    Great show, I'll be there. Unfortunately none of my cars are done. So ill be taking my civilian car. There is sometimes drama though with all the gay greaser crews. It's fun watching the fags fight.

    Yeah too many people care more about the scene then the cars. But a lot of sweet cars do show up and it is still a great show.

    Ya know what you mean we have them here to i call them posers they buy and drive old cars but when you talk to them they have no clue of what these cars and times were about it dont get me wrong theres alot of good people out there but like anything theres always an asshole in every crowd.So you cant let that ruin it for you just enjoy the show and yourself

    I've been wanting to go forever...unfortunately it's always the same weekend as PRI. One of these years the schedules won't conflict.
     
  20. I have been going for years great event, the parking lines really suck at Irwindale. But still a BIG event and a good variety of cars.

    yup yup! two years ago, I lost over an hour at the entrance.... lines were so bad, you can see the cars aging!....I dont take that chance anymore. I go early and hope you all do too!:D
     
  23. If the lines get all the way to Irvine, I'll walk. It is in Irwindale.

    I haven't made it to that show yet, but, I hear its a pain in the ass to get into the complex. I also heard the local PD isn't super nice either.

    But, I've never been, so I can't substantiate those claims. I only serve to pass the info along.

    What is wrong with being part of the scene? That is fun as well and it goes great with the cars.
     
  30. The Rockasilly scene is not part of any car culture. It's not the reasons I got into the cars.
