The actual "show" is at The Grand Hotel. There is only enough room for around 300 cars in the show, and most of them are very nice. What makes the show so big is the crowd it draws into town. It's an open show, and you never really know who or what may show up. the Fri. and Sat. night cruising is a blast. It's the only two weekends a year where you'll see 800hp supercharged prostreet cars cruising the strip. the crowd tends to get pretty rowdy too. Cops are on the prowl writing tickets to anyone spinning tires, racing, revving engines, encouraging any of the above, and don't forget the girls flashing for Mardi Gras beads.

Tickets for spinning tires(wreckless endangerment and disorderly conduct) is $98, but if you pay it without contest, it doesn't go on your record. If you try to fight(which you won't win) you would have to pay the fine, court costs, other court related fees, and it DOES go on your record.

Tickets for girls flashing or to anyone handing out beads to girls for flashing is $120.

I forgot my camera when my dad and I went to the show, but he took a couple of pics I'll try to share later if i remember.
