Hot August Nights Reno

-

High 90's and low 100's here and seems to be hot everywhere on this side of the country. The night time is nice.
I don't know what it was like in the 90's. I first went in 05 and then I've been the last 7 years. Seems to be a pretty well run event and I always have a real good time.
 
I attended in the 1990's when living at Lake Tahoe. Nowadays, I believe the problem is these events become too big, unmanageable, and not so much fun as before?
I attended in the 80's & 90's It was an absolute blast... Late 90's it was getting to be a different crowd 97 was the riots, I was there... My GF nearly got into a fight trying to keep drunks off of my car... We got outta there, back to the hotel, next morning headed home & from 97-2019 only took daily driver type vehicles.. Took my Challenger again in 2019... Might drive up again for a day this year..... The fact the Mopars at the A&W gathering appears to be cancelled kinda makes me feel like staying home... No Mopar gathering & August is to Fukking hot anyway...
Maybe a trip around Lake Tahoe instead.... Tahoe is higher elevation so it's cooler, Tahoe is beautiful... Reno is a desert...
 
I always go. For me, it is just a little shy of 2 hours to get there.
As much as I love Mopars, I also like to see other brands of cars as well. I have a great admiration for Chevrolet full size cars from 1959 to 64.
 
If I get to finish my 4 speed and Qa1 Swap into the 69, I will most likely go. I have missed all other times due to my cars being down and here I am again -_-
 
I went to the Virginia City Kick-Off event over the weekend with friends.
