-
can anyone tell me how long you go for and how long it takes to get there.do you reserve motels or just wing it.
-
20 hour drive, maybe a bit longer in a VW. You can do it in 2 days pretty easy.
-
Or drink lots of red bull and do it in one.... I don't recomend it but have done it a few times.
-
Did that from Portland to LA for Bug In 32. The trip down was ok, but back was really hard.
-

yes sir you do, lets get er ready!
-
so whos in so far? what would everyone feel like driving in a day? i was kinda thinking about planning a certain drive time and such, then booking camp sites for everyone who wants to drive down and party at nite! we was talking about taking the coast down just for some good photo ops and all that grand stuff, what is everyone else planning? are we all wanting to go in one huge group?
-
Just for reference - Date for the Classic is Sunday June 13th. DKP on the Friday 11th? Casual non-rush drive including part of the coast (3-4 days?). Leave on Monday June 7th or Tuesday June 8th?? We are in as you know for a group cruise down (safety in numbers). Camp or cheap hotels?
-
I think 3 to 4 days is cool with our lot, me, lester, and my old man.
Or just pound it into 24hrs !!!!! :evil1:
-
what is the host hotel so we can book now
-
Crown Plaza in Irvine, when you book ask for the VW Classic rate. Not sure if that deal is set up yet.

If one decided to fly, air canada was offering a sale @ $80 plus taxes each way. (i think $250 total return) Could leave on a thursday and return on a tuesday.
-
That's a very good deal, if your thinking about going book now you won't regret it!
-
looking for a trailer to rent or buy, long enough to hual two buggies-22'? We're jacked to go to the show, two buggies on the trailer and another in the pickup box. Hopefully hitting some dunes along the way, anyone else interested or know where to look to rent a trailer? A buddy has one for his dragster but it weighs 7000lbs. Yikes!
-
I just called and reserved my room at teh Crowne Plaza.... Not many left. I kinda had to beg a bit as they are getting low and wanted me in a King sze bed, However I know CHris loves spooning so I almost took it... :wub:

this is now 360.00 return still not bad but westjet is 297.00 return right now.
i reserved a room a week or so ago and they only had 6 rooms left.
-
Is that to Irvine or LAX?
I am hopefully taking the DC
-
that is to LAX i still have an hour drive to hotel once i get the car.
-
Word is the hotel is now booked full
-
I'm a dumb ass, should have thought about reserving earlier, anybody with any ideas about another hotel in the area?
-
Travelocity.ca - do a search for the Crowne Plaza Irvine. Got it for 113 CAD. Almost as good as the 99 USD event rate
-
just booked my room.Sounds like no double beds left.I guess some one is sleeping on the floor!Got it at the VW Classic rate.
-
Travelocity still showed 2 double bed rooms still avail for about $114cdn yesterday.
-
I have gas.
-
I just got word that old Drunk Dogg aka, trouble starter, aka Notchback, aka Mc Crackdogg will be making the Classic....maybe with single Cab in tow.
-
