Myself, WIKD281 and TRY2PAZ are entering our cars in the Saleen Show. Last year WIKD281 and I went and both took 3rd in our classes. We had a great time and the show was well put together (We thought so). We will leave either on Thursday or Friday before the show. Is anyone interested in driving down with us either to enter or just go for the show. JSGIVUP

Steph~ I believe the show is just on Saturday... its at Saleen's new headquarters in Irvine (addy is 76 Fairbanks)...
I went last year and had an awesome time... we trailer the cars down on a rig... if anyone wants to show but they don't want to put the miles on their car we have room for more cars... just let me know!

Who's responsible for the towing? I never realized that option was available for just anyone....do you have anymore details on that. Thanks

That's right, the show is only on Saturday. Its location is 76 fairbanks, Irvine, Ca, 92618. I can mail anyone an entry form if they need one. Entry fee is $20 if you enter before 9-1-01. After is $25.00. I recomend entering early cause if you do you get stuff like a saleen shirt, saleen plaque, car detailing stuff, etc. The trophies are pretty nice, WIKD281 and mine are made of solid marble. The show goes from about 8am to 5pm. If you enter, get there early for good parking. For info, Saleen's number is 949-597-4900. Stanggirl98, how do you tow the cars, on what, how many can you fit, who drives it etc?Thanks,

Vortech & JSGIVUP... a friend of mine in Redding has a rig (18 wheeler type thing) for towing his cars to shows... it can pull 8 cars and, if I dont bring my car, there's room for 6 more... and its all covered... the cab is set up w/ TV/DVD, beds, little kitchen, all kinds of crap ... his girlfriend and I will be cruisin down in their Excursion so there's plenty of room for everyone if you don't want to drive seperate cars... we're still debating whether we are leaving thursday or friday, it depends on my work schedule... its not something thats set up thru Saleen or anything like that... its his own rig and he'd be the only one driving it... I'll double check with him on how many he'd be willing to take down, but the last LS1 show we went to he pulled 8 cars for people so I don't think it's a prob... if it's cool w/ him than we'd have to do a first come, first serve thing like we did before so it's fair... and we'd all have to meet beforehand to make sure there won't be any probs ... lemme know if it interests any of ya

Brian, keep me posted if you leave on Thursday morning, I still haven't decided if I will just drive the car rather than tow it.

I had an idea of flying down. Even the drive down to Sac was a little wacky. I had a little shade of yellow over the tailpipes that I had to wax off from the long drive, and my car acted kind of funny as well.If I were to fly down, would anyone be willing to pick up my free loading ass?
