MATS Las Vegas Friday-Sunday April 27,28,29,2018.

Mine arrived today as well. The Quarter Mile of Muscle Cars will be on S 3rd St and Bridger. That is right along side the concert Venue. If that street is packed with drunks and careless people, which I expect it will be, I am not bringing my Charger.

Thanks for the heads up. Our group from Arizona is coming from the south east on 515. Looks like we should miss the construction
 
So best route from airport to Downtown Grand?
Las Vegas Blvd?
I'll be coming in at some ridiculously late hour, with an unfamiliar rental car.
Can u say, just mug me now.....

You'll be fine as long as you take 515 and stay away from 15. It takes you around the east side right to downtown, just get there before 3-4 pm if you can.

There is no such thing as a ridiculously late hour in the city that never sleeps! You can just slog on up LV Blvd all the way to downtown and stay awake by the blinding lights and traffic on the strip, probably no worse than taking 15 North......it's not that far either way.
If you prefer a more zen like experience, depending on your car rental location, you can take Paradise north to East on Tropicana to North on Maryland Parkway to West on Ogden and you're there. Or if you find yourself exiting onto Russell road just go East to Maryland Parkway then as above.
Just remember, everyone in Vegas is in a hurry and wants to go faster than you, even if you are going 90 mph!:steering:

Carson Pass, Highway 88. Caples Lake, elevation 7804. Near a Kirkwood.
 
I'm excited, I'll be there Friday morning but no car. I couldn't get a trailer but I've got one lined up for next year. Just a question can you come and go as you please if you enter your car in the fun field?
 
Yes, As long as you show wrist band and have hanging mirror tag,you are good to go.
 
Arrived. 96 degrees today. 95 a parking lot. Gear up, plan, watch Drive times etc.

Finally got a room at the Cannery. Now that they are no longer the Host Hotel. Wed nite. Casino deserted. Desk says they are "under Boyde Gaming now." New owner I guess. It's almost 100 degrees here and the Craig ramp southbound 93/15 is one lane but open. Construction barrels everywhere.
