Just to clarify some things:
Dates - we are hosting the Huntington Beach event on the same day as the Knotts show to make it easier on us. We can't bring the big rig, loaded with cars (as well as a team of guys) out to SoCal too many times in a year, so it made sense to combine the two events.

Background - customers were providing feedback to us that hanging out in a hot parking lot all day was not as much fun as they are used to having. Huntington Beach offered better views, better food options, cooler breezes, more possibilities for future events, and a new audience all in one.

Cost - believe it or not, after sponsoring all of our customers the last few years at Knotts, it's actually cheaper to host an event in HB rather than to continue the support as we have in years past.

Details - it's a one day event down at the Pier, and we are reviewing whether we have enough space to open it up to everyone (we should have more info on our site soon). Since it is only one day, some customers will choose to head over to Knotts on Sunday. Obviously, we welcome everyone to hang out with us at the Pier plaza.
