There were 6000 registrations available for Hot August Nights this year. I don't know how many were filled, but it looks good so far. This is the 25 year event. They are bringing back drag races and burnouts, hope it's a huge success. Last year, we brought one of my 64 Sport Furys, this year, my wife's 37 Dodge hot rod ( 340, A727, 390 positrac, street slicks, etc.) I talked to a guy who said that something like 86% of all the registered cars are Ford and Chevy, the other 14% is all other brands. That said, we've seen some very nice Mopars, but would like to see us represented better. If you're a west coaster, or even an east coast Mopar addict, it's an event you should make at least once. You have to register at least a year or two early to get in. They will close some of the main streets in Reno and Sparks for nightly cruises. Lots of tribute bands plus the real bands, like Paul Revere and the Raiders. Show & Shines at many venues with good cash prizes, etc.
HAN got off track for a few years, but are coming back with new life, or at least it appears to be that way so far. Great event.
A little off topic, but I see a lot of east coast events mentioned here, thought I'd give a shout out for the west.
