Maybe I'll start selling rides in it. :wink:

I'll be there. This was a kick ass show last year, and I am sure it will kick ass this year too. Big night is friday night with about 100-200 watercooled VW's and other cars running at Bradenton.

We camped right across the street and it wasn't too bad. Saturday at the pier was awesome as was the caravan to the park on Sunday. This show is becoming on of the best shows of the year.

Good times!!!

Good to hear that Boyd Hill Nature Park will be
used again in 2008, despite previous rumors
to the contrary.

No track side camping?

Sat Dec 01, 2007 7:08 am

the state park is much nicer in my opinion and you have to be out by 8am at the strip.

Sat Dec 01, 2007 8:45 am

true, plus the state park is nearly right across the street
