I would like to add some personal insight regarding the Reno Hot August Nights event. I have been to the event 6 times since 1995, 5 times being a registered participant, 1 time not registered. Hot August Nights is a weeklong (July 30 to August 7th) with scheduled daily events such as a poker run, cruises and show and shine car shows. All registered participants are allowed to participate in these events, and can always find a place to park their car for all to see, enjoy, and respect. If you are not registered, you can of course still come to Reno and enjoy the cars, but if you have a collector car, you will be forced to park it with all the other non-registered cars, and walk to the car events. Also, only registered cars are allowed to participate in the cruises. You read me right, you must be registered to be in the scheduled cruises, as the streets are closed to non-registered cars. I have not been to the event for several years because I failed to register in time. This past year, in trying to get in to 2004, I got a letter back stating that if I wanted to be in 2005 (and this was before the 2004 event), I had a short window of time (maybe 1 week) to provide payment ($100.00)to be in the 2005 event. I was being offered this because I was turned down for 2004 (which I had registered for in February of 2004). It is a great car show, not doubt-the best I've ever been to. Just know what you are getting involved with as it is expensive for lodging and challenging to participate if you are not registered.
