That's my hometown, and I still have a lot of family there. I usually go to the NHRA Hot Rod Reunion there in June. I don't think I can swing both next year. This one should be good. I may have to go to this one instead.

Glad to see you guy's are going. Were staying at the host hotel also so look forward to meeting you all just look for the ol 56. While talking with Woody he told me that they were working on a lot of thing's to make this one of the largest TriFive meet's that has ever took place.Good to see things coming together for them.

I'm registered and booked at the host hotel. I'll be driving my '56 panel truck from Victoria, B.C. Canada, which is about 2500 miles from Bowling Green. I spoke to Vince at Woody's this morning, and at this time there's no "official" tour from this area to the Nats. As we'll be travelling solo, I'd be interested in hooking up with other tri-fivers from the Pacific Northwest that are going. Maybe we could put together our own tour?

Yeah Nick, I was #1159 when I registered last week so one heck of a turnout. Never been to the Nationals and since I live in Ky I had to get to this one!
Now gotta book a room and see you there next summer.

I hope the sponsors are doing as much planning/investing as the individuals making plans. I've never seen so much excitement over a never before held event almost a year in advance. I hope the hype is matched by the event's execution.

Me, I'm not sure what I'll be doing next week or next month, let alone next year. Which probably leaves me out since Bowling Green is such a small place for accomodations.

I'll be going Smooth 56, haven't gotten the room yet. I was looking at the Sync Hotel. But they don't take cancellations should some unfortunate situation arises. So I'll wait til the day gets a little closer. Probably making a mistake. I'm probably going to start looking for Hotel around February or March. Looking forward to meeting you guy's that are going.

Old thread--I have room booked but probably won't be going as wife's hometown is having their 5 year reunion and guess who wins on this front. Am holding on to the room in hopes things might change---will be at the Hot Rod Reunion though if anyone else will be

I'm considering going to this event for the first time and I'm trying to nail down approximately how many cars generally attend this event? It's a long drive from Michigan and would prefer to know what I most likely am going to see before I make the trip. I'm thinking there are cars being shown, a swap meet area, and hopefully a car corral where cars are being sold, along with the drag races going on. However, we drove quite a ways to the Michigan Super Chevy show and everybody that went with me, and myself, were quite disappointed with the small number of vehicles. It seemed almost all the focus was on the drag strip and race cars, which was the least of the attractions for me. I just don't want to drive 7 hours one way, and spend all the dough to make it happen if it's not a big event.
Thanks,

Great show--over 2100 tri-fives attend---went the last to years--way better than Super chevy(stopped going there years ago)--tri-five cars from all over the country--lots of vendors, great swap meet, great cars and great people.
