Las Vegas

[65-440]

I'm in Las Vegas for the week with my wife and kids. Wife has a work conference for 3 days. For all you locals, anything car related going on the week ? I got a rental until Friday afternoon, will be doing some driving out to the Hoover damn, valley of fire, etc .....

You just missed me... check my pictures from Hoover Dam though:

And *DO NOT* miss stopping at the coffee cup in Boulder City. My absolute favorite place for breakfast.

Want something different for lunch? Check out Fuku burger in Las Vegas china town

We really enjoyed the Neon Museum tour. The Mob Museum was good too, Fremont Street area.

If you are there on a Thurs and you like live classic rock, check out Yellow Brick Road on Fremont Street. Killer band.

I loved the pinball hall of fame! Take plenty of quarters and memories of hanging out in arcades.

Sit at the Whisky Liker at Binions. Close to the beer, right off the stage.

Pinball HOF is about straight east of you on Tropicana. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinball_Hall_of_Fame

Sweet, I just so happen to be staying at the tropicana !

The Shelby facility is no longer at the track. It's north of downtown

Correct, in the same spot when I went 5yrs ago. Very nice place, lots of great cars

I'm following this thread because I'm going to Vegas on the 9th - 12th of May and also looking for things to do besides the strip/casinos. Wife and I are taking a little road trip just to get away. Taking note of the ideas guys are coming up with.

On a related note, when driving through Death Valley last Monday, there was a sign that Scotty's Castle is closed. That's a good tour too when open.
