Here's a thread for the Mitty for 2018.

 

Lets see who is going, post up questions, who's bring what, where you are camping and post up pictures of the event.

 

I will be at Turn 2/3 as always, anyone who wants to camp near us is welcome, or just stop by to say G'day.

I'm going to miss it this year, alas. First time in years and years.

That's a bummer Keith--- it's always great to see you there.   I'll be at the Mitty, as usual, mostly running around the Fan Zone vending area.   I'll also be helping to organize the Parade and Touring laps.  The trusty M3 will be out there as the "chase" car--- making sure the "accordion" antics are at a minimum!

Adam Carolla is there with some of his Nissan race cars- I wish I could go and hang out in his pit area

You can, everyone is great about welcoming you into their pits, just be aware of their need to work on the cars when they are busy.

Had plans to make it down, even got the Z out of winter storage early to prep for the drive, but unfortunately I’m not going to be able to make it.  All pictures of Datsuns will be appreciated.    

Cheers

As usual, I'll be camping by Aussie's compound.  Just look for a van down by turn 2/3.

 

Legal disclaimer: photograph may not accurately depict user experience.  Look for a gray Mazda5 and green tent.

That would be a cool van Matt, and you would have more sleeping space

Nope--- no swap meet, but the vending area will be packed with all kinds of cool stuff---- from Kei cars to Exocets, Covercraft covers to Koni shocks, FRAM, BFG Garage, and NIssan all have huge displays--- all kinds of interesting artwork and memorabilia to see and buy.  You can even get ice cream, and gator on a stick, cause we're sophisticated like that!

Well if you bring a sweet conversion van I may swap you a manual Mazda5 for it.  Bonus points for wizard murals.  I'm sure the wife will have no problem driving it to her office the next day. She'll be ecstatic!

Ah, here's the thread I was looking for. I'll be camping in the 2/3 area again this year. Unfortunately no cool Wheeler Dealer car this year, just the DD Milan. Looking forward to the weekend.

Should be up there in a semi crappy RV and a crappier light blue V8 Maxima.

So, tix at the gate 24/7 at the gate is way cool (since my vacation wasn't approved until last week), but do I need to bring cash to do so?

Currently looking at arriving late Friday.
