Is anyone going to Automotion 2017 in Wisconsin Dells? It's May 20th & 21st. Having been born and raised there, it's tons of fun and they have 1000+ classic cars there. Just curious! Hoping one day to get my '74 fixed up well enough to put in there. Would LOVE to see more Vettes at the show.

A nice place- the hotel was a little expensive.

I was there a few years ago for the Hotrod Power Tour. We had over 5000 cars show up and traffic was a mess. Way too many cars for them to handle- had us parking on the golf couse and told us we needed to leave by 5PM. I had to drive on the Golf cart path to get to my hotel room. Probably won't be there as I'm almost a 1000 miles away!!!

I'd look at a map - as driving through town had way too much traffic.

Richard - yea, that's a different event that you went to. It is a tourist town. They probably get 200,000+ people and the two towns combine only have 5000 residents. So yes, it does get packed, but it is a fun event. This one is always in May and at Noah's Ark parking lot. You were at Chula Vista it looks like.
