It is less than a month away now. Yes this is on the race section as well. Yes I know it is not 100% Mopar only, but it is a drag race, autocross, car show and swap meet. So I am putting it here as well. I know I know its not a Mopar only event. Yet is overwhelmingly a Mopar event. Far more Mopars than other makes for sure. I will be there just trying to "rally" the troops and see who else will be attending. Link to show https://matslv.com/

Well, I bought flights/hotel/rental car/race tickets....and now I'm not coming.
I was all set to come out to buy a car (that was advertised on this site) from an owner who suggested that we meet up at MATS because he'll be racing there. After 7 days of phone calls(4) and texts(12+), he let me make all the travel arrangements and less than 24hrs hours later....sends me a text that he has decided to keep the car and "Sorry".
I have half a mind to come out anyway to call him a POS to his face. That sucks!
It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose… as long as you look good doing it!

My advice is you have never been here pack for the frozen tundra and for the arid desert. We can have either or both that weekend. The wind in the spring and the sun can be a bit much for many. Lst year was cold and somewhat miserable. The race ended up being called for rain. Just sayin don't assume since its Vegas that it will be warm. It can be far from that. Love to know who it was that treated you that way on a deal. If you decide to come visit the individual come find me and we will help you self medicate afterward

A couple of years back, the strong winds rammed some EZ-ups into some expensive wing cars causing some serious paint/body damage.. Anyway I will be there, great event by Painter for car show, swap meet, drag races.. Just my $0.02...
