I signed up for it as well, going to drive my '69 Valiant. I am waiting for the drive schedule to be released/announced, with the schedule we were sent yesterday, it looks like the drives will be at night, each track closes at 5pm each day, so if you stay until then, its already dark, you can leave early obviously to avoid some of that.

I received a email from Hot Rod showing gates opening at 9am at Irwindale, get your credentials etc, racing at 10, gates close at 5, gates at Vegas open at 11, Long Hauler punch station open at 11.30, racing at 11.30, gates close at 5, gates at Pomona open at 11, punch station at 11, and Long Hauler plaque distribution at 11, racing at 1130, gates close at 5. I did not look at the hotels' host site at all, may go check it out. I live in Lancaster, will be going alone, have not made hotel plans, and honestly, may have to cancel the deal, as may go have carpal tunnel surgery, waiting on doctors call for appt.

Went to the Hot Rod Power Tour West over the weekend, had fun, met some great people, my Valiant with the 408 had zero issues, ran into Alex Taylor Sunday morning gassing up at Baker, she rolled with our little group to the next stop at Peggy Sue's Diner. They said there was over 1600 entries. They took quite a few pics at each location and on the road, as well as some videos, MT got a pretty cool shot of mine leaving Vegas Sunday morning on the 15 South.

Nice, a friend of mine did it in his '77 Firebird. From what I understand the dragstrip prep was horrible!
