Thanks for the empathy guys. I didn't pay them a dime. This whole thing really sucks. Now I'm in talks with another shop, Garage works. I'm hoping to have a much better experience. Here's the kicker, Juan is the owner of snail motorsports.

Hey all. Not to steal this thread, but I am planning a trip to Vegas the 4th through the 7th and I was looking for suggestions on hotels, bars, activities, or anything special to do while there. I didnt have anyone to ask for these tips and was hoping the 370 forum could come through and help me out. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

Are you planning on staying on the strip?

If so, staying at a place like New York New York (or other place in the middle of the strip) is ideal, that way you have easy access to the trams and monorail or you're walking distance from many of the other hotels.

So, I may be making a weekend trip up to Vegas before the NFL season to place some more sports bets.

If I do, are there any events going on that some of us could meet up for?

Being a local... I don't typically go out to clubs or the strip. And I've never stayed in a hotel at the strip so I really can't give you any recommendations. I live in my own bubble out in the southwest area of town.

Which is typical of Las Vegans.

Cars and coffee and there's a Wednesday night meet some folks go to. That's all that comes to mind. Lmk when you decide to come, so I can get that Saturday off for CC.

Ah okay. Yeah, it'd def. be a Fri-Sunday trip probably (leaving Fri after work).

I will try to plan it out here soon.

Stay in the middle of the strip of at all possible. Easy access to either side. Text this promoter for clubs or dayclubs/pools. I found him on instagram and I think he should be able to take care of you.

I am local and my wife and I go to the strip often, we do staycations etc. I am older (48) so we don't do clubs (but sometimes bars) other than being fans of Steel Panther. I like Planet Hollywood, there is a lot to do right there. Easy walking distance to City Center, Belagio, New York New York etc etc but we have always been able to find decent prices. There are also some cheaper shows there that we go to every so often. Some times we do the Stratosphere and do a cheap show and dinner on top. We did the Rio and saw Penn and Teller for an over night stay. There is a ton to do at the strip. We go over at times just to walk the strip, that alone doing "people" watching is fun and we get exercise while at it! Lots of crazies. Anyway I could go on and on and then jump to Fremont Street but thats another post.

Fremont St. is a fun time too. I haven't been there at night though. I want to see the light show.

Jenz and tazicon where did you get your tires mounted at? I don't want to spend 90 at the dealership. Looking for something cheap!

Can the husband hook it up?? (:
Edit: not for free. I just would like someone experienced who won't eff my wheels up or charge too much.
