Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)

not sure what you mean about the way you got in last year.

Where I go, and I assume everyone else, is the main parking lot by the dirt track. They zig zag the cars down the parking lanes. The first year I took the '69, at shortly after 5am, i was at the end of the first zig if that makes any sense.

the second year, i got a bit smarter and had my son jump out of the truck with some chairs right when we entered to run down and grab the spot.

That only kinda worked since they have a "no place holding" rule until 10am.

Not saying there aren't better spots than this, but this area seems to work well for us. Last year we couldn't get it and ended up way out there on the south side of the grounds.
