|

For those of us that are trailering our Barndoor to OCTO, where do we park the trailer? I can drive my '54 into the show, just don't have time to make the drive from up in Northern California..... have to work Friday morning So I'll be towing mine.

If you are trailering your barndoor for the special display, you will be able to park your truck and trailer in the spectator parking area.

Just thought I would point that that Faculty doesn't actually go through to Carson... there's a concrete divider there so enter from the South. 
Plus you can't turn south if you are heading west on Carson anyway - there's a street divider there.

Stoked that the summer show is here once again! My only issue is deciding what to bring to eat...
Once again, I'll be flying the Bavarian flag high and proud from my canopy...so come find me and say the secret password "Carrie Underwood" to receive a free beer.
Safe travels to all, and we'll see ya soon..
PS, please bring plenty of cash to buy my random junk that I will be selling...
