****** ATTENTION ******

There will be NO TOWING of race vehicles from staging to Tech along any portion of the route! Vehicles MUST drive under their own power to the intersection of Main and Fremont.  There is no trailering of any race vehicles to any point along the route to be unloaded - this must occur at staging only and will be strictly enforced by Las Vegas Metro PD!  You will put your race vehicle back on the trailer in the parking lot provided at the southwest corner of Fremont Street & 8th.  As soon as you load your car, you MUST remove the vehicles from that parking lot!!!  That is ONLY FOR PICKUP/TRANSPORT OF RACE CARS AFTER TECH - not parking for the event!  If you want to hang out and enjoy the event, you MUST find another location to park your truck & trailer, such as the original staging areas.  THERE WILL BE A TOW TRUCK ON SITE AND YOUR RIG WILL BE TOWED IF NOT IMMEDIATELY REMOVED!!!
