I went to HAN for years and years. My grandparents lived in Carson City - so it was always a good excuse to go visit them... and of course HAN "used to be" - the hot rod show in the country on the west coast... Then - frankly - it went to hell in a hand basket as far as I'm concerned. So I quit going about 5 years ago.
I get my fill of Charley at other events... I've thought - a nanosecond at least - about going back, but there's just other things to do - and I'm not any different than everyone else - I only have so many weeks to do "X" amount of car stuff - before it has to take a back seat to family stuff.
This year it is on the same weekend as the NorCal Shelby Mini Nats at Sonoma -- and I have more fun driving the car Charley gave away than I do sitting in a parking lot. (I've never been much of a car show guy).
I think you should modify your trip and include Sonoma for a couple hours... then have Charley send his helicopter to pick you up and whisk you over to Reno.
