Anyone doing Mopars at the strip?

[BIGSHCLUNK]

The wife and I were thinkin' about going. Like I need an excuse to go to Vegas.    Of couse we would fly out. Probly be a foot of snow here yet! Any pro's/con's from anybody thats done it??

The only thing that sucks about flying to Mopars at the Strip is you have to ship parts which can get expensive. Other than that flying is great because it saves a lot of time. I'm not going to be able to make it this year, want to, just have too much going on.

If I don't have to work that weekend, my son and I are driving up and will spend Saturday at the show.  As it stands right now, we're going.

Yes, going again this year, hopefully the turnout is good this year with everything going on. Rent a car as it can be very expensive to get to the track and back, and Vegas will try to suck all of the money out of your pocket. Did me the last couple years, but fun.

I'm going, but have not decided whether to take the Challenger or the Dart Swinger.

BTW, the recommended Hotel is the Cannery.. how is it? We ususally stay at the RIO when were in Vegas.

Ive heard good things about the cannery around mats time...but i wouldn't be too surprised if it was booked solid by now

The Cannery is sold out a year in advance for that weekend. Still ok for small casino, Saturday night, they have a band and walk of Mopars, was free with armband from the show. Try this Great guide, very true to life and funny also,  http://www.cheapovegas.com/index.php
Also dont forget to to hit the In-N-Out burger a couple times..

Ya cannery is booked, but no big deal there.  Man are airfares up and down!!!

 I went last year, and flew out of Boston.

 I would LOVE to go again this year 
Stayed at the Stratosphere. Pretty cool.
 At over 1000 feet up, the Big Shot was by far the scariest experience I have ever had   
And I would love to do it again

 If I could recommend just one thing to do, (besides the show obviously)
If it is still running, go see The Beatles LOVE at The Mirage.
I paid $165 for one ticket, and I tell ya, I would have paid twice that it was that good.

  Man are airfares up and down!!!

Yep, I hear ya.
They change constantly.
I had a GREAT fare last year in the morning, and when I went to go book it when I got home from work the same day it doubled 
 I checked non stop for the next two days thinking I lost my window of opportunity, when FINALLY it went back down to an even better price than I initially found 
 Stay patient, and persistent brother

 Forgot to ask if your renting a car?
If you do try to stay off the main strip, and use Paradise rd. instead to get around.
MUCH EASIER 

 My poor rental car took a beating.
I even jumped a curb in a road rage incident I got into with some fool   
 She was a blast to drive though.
Much love little Mazda 5

Oh ya, always rent a car. Entreprise treated me very well out there last fall during SEMA!!!!
