Finding an interesting Falcodore is the hard part. Most think some tints and a set of Chinese 17 inch mags do the trick. And a Chev badge if you have a V6 Executive.

Havent been for some years now, but almost every year, all the reports I hear back, it that it was worse than the year before.
It USED to be a "mustnt miss" kind of event. People would put up with the long queues because once inside, it was great.
Im not hearing that sort of comment anymore.

Don't let the negative posts put you off. It's still a great day with lots of Yankee iron, (among many others), food, music, and heaps of various stalls and events. I went last year and the year before that, and thoroughly enjoyed it and will be going both days. If you see a red 2014 C7 Stingray, come and say hi!

Well I won't be going again. The traffic management was abysmal. At 1pm it took 40 minutes for the leaving queue to go 100 metres. At 2pm I got out of the carpark.

I set the alarm for 5am, go there today at 6am, had a nice chat outside for an hour with fellow early birds and got in and was parked 10 mins after the 7am opening time. Left at 3pm and was straight out without any delays (went alternative route around the back). More cars than last year. Highlight for me? Seeing a genuine 2006 GT40 (they go for around $250,000 USA at present) and are super cool. Going back tomorrow.

Saw some cool cars coming and going from there. Best - Studebaker with bug catcher and matching caravan.

Not sure I'd cite weather and traffic as reasons never to return. It's mid-summer in Auckland in a big open field, which means hot, humid and sod-all shelter. Which it was.
And short of banning all traffic within a 2 mile radius of the grounds, I'm not sure how entry and exit can be made any faster. I sure as hell didn't envy the folks with the flags!
Just my $0.02
