Las Vegas & So Cal cruise nights??
Starting next week I will be in Las Vegas, Los Angeles and San Diego. Wondering if anyone here from these areas can recommend a local cruise night. Always nice to see a new assortment of cars.

Re: Las Vegas & So Cal cruise nights??
Darren,
I can't tell you anything about cruise nights in Lost Wages (Las Vegas) or San Deigo. In the LA area most stuff takes place on the weekends, with a few during the week. It just depends on when you're around. Take a look at this web site. It sums up a lot of what goes on. socalcarculture Friday nights there is a cool cruise night at Bob's Big Boy in Toluca Lake. It's near NBC Studios which is in Burbank. Some really nice cars and motorcycles show up. Maybe we can hook up if schedules mesh right.

Re: Las Vegas & So Cal cruise nights??
Darren, you have to go to the Original Tommy's Drive-In (right down the street from the Police Station they used for filming Adam-12) for a double chili cheeseburger
 Killer stuff (literally...if you ate enough of 'em). When I used to go to LA I would freeze them and bring them home on the plane.Their website - http://www.originaltommys.com/?

Great advice Bill. I actually have a list of restaurants that I want to visit while there. Tommy's is now on the list. Thanks.

Re: Las Vegas & So Cal cruise nights??
Gee Darren, you're going to be here only 1 day. There's too much to see. Unfortunately Wednesdays are usually kinda dead for cruise nights. This Sunday there's a swap meet in Long Beach. Also take a look at the "Links" page on that web site and look at the museum list. The Petersen Museum is nice. Maybe that would be something good for you to check out. What area are you going to be staying in?

Think it is going to be 2 days now. A friend of mine recommended the NHRA hall of fame.
