Needles is about 40 miles from Lake Havasu and 110 miles from Vegas. I went last year and will go this year. It was fun. Lots of beautiful boats and great people.Quote:

It's a "show" not a race. Stay home, you will be scared. :)Quote:

No it is a show. Anyone who wishes to go run in front of the crowd is welcome to do so, but it's not a race and not a typical v-drive outing that we would have in needles. Still a lot of fun for those who dig "true" floating Hot Rods under 2 tons. :DQuote:

And I probably have too many teeth for that crowd. :happy:Quote:

This isn't the greatest show on earth, but it's fun to do once a year and it's for a good cause. :thumbup:
This is the end of the parade and the start of the street party.
