If you don't get there till Saturday, don't expect to see everything. My friends and I always arrive by noon on Thursday and stay till late afternoon on Sunday, and still never feel like we've seen everything. Friday and Saturday are the best days. By Sunday, vendors are packing up to leave. Seeing all the cars in the show and in the car corral, and in the retro dealership display outside the gate, and the cars in all the buildings, will take most of one day. A brisk walk past all the vendors with stops at very few will also take the better part of a day. So pick what you want to see and do, and do those things first. Check the show program out when you get there to see if there are any events or seminars that you don't want to miss during the show so you can plan to attend. If you've been to the Nats, this will be a very different kind of show. Its well organized, there are clean bathrooms and clean port-a-johns, plenty of good food vendors with lots of variety, and the enture show has a more laid back atmosphere than the Nats.
