Plenty of parking big complex. Recommend The Perky Bar and grill on Brower Rd (1/4 mile).

I live 20 miles away from the convention & would like to see the cars & vendors on Friday. Is it open to the public & if so is there a fee to get in?

Thumbs up Great Time

1st time attending a national meet. Great time and I didn’t even have time to do the BBQ last night or stay for today/tomorrow. Had the wife and two younger boys with us so they had some fun at the indoor amusements next to the convention center.

Great Job by Vic and SV GTO Club!

Great to talk with other GTO owners, see finished cars as examples of what mine should look like, and great to talk with Arnie and Milt as those dudes are living legends in Pontiac Performance.

My one suggestion would be to find a host hotel/convention center with indoor/outdoor pool and attached indoor hall/center for concours cars. (So when wife/kids need a break they’re still at the same location)

Thanks to all that made this happen! I went all day Friday and it was nothing short of fantastic! Great seeing and meeting Milt and Arnie who are really nice down to earth guys. The cars were incredible, and I loved the indoor display. I drove 160 mules from OC and met people that drove cars from Ga, Ma, and the Midwest in their beautiful classics. My mind was blown by the time we left, I was practically speechless for an hour trying to process all I saw.

I had a great time. Thanks to all the SVGTO guys, they did an awesome job. I KNOW how hard and exhausting it is to put something like that together.
Thanks Vic ....and Mrs. Vic. I met some new GTO people the last 3 days and they were all so nice. I hope everyone gets home safe.

Sorry bobs....... the convention and info on it was heavily advertised for 18 months. We were at the convention working it and had no access to the PY forum for the week.

I see your post was dated 6/29 ....... that was pop vote day, registrations closed about 10am but we left it open a little later..... after the cut off no more show cars were admitted. Spectators were admitted........ all their donations will be given to the Ronald McDonald House Charities.
