I agree with you John thats the way the Mint 400 used to be out there in Vegas every year. Lots of eating drinking parties and cool cars sandrails motorcycles trucks and VW Bugs. I don't remember any 4 wheelers back then, if there was it was not many anyway.
But they always had a big parade up Fremont Street down town, Las Vegas with all the vehicels. Back then Vegas was not near as big as it is today, but thousands and thousands of people would show up from all over the place. It was a great time to be a kid growing up out there. Atleast it was for me.
