Generally, people cruise the strip but the abundance of a traffic lights, b turbo cars and c a straight road inevitably leads to a few impromptu drag races. This in turn leads to what we call the VR6 serenade — the unmistakable sound of VRs running up the strip while you eat, cruise and sleep.

We find the noise hypnotic and enjoy the nightlife as much as the show itself. However, we have to consider the impact we have on the local population.

This year, the police were again ever-present but appeared to use a light hand rather than a big stick. At any given time there was always somebody receiving a ticket, but thousands of cars gave them lots of opportunities.

But what really made it special was watching VR6s rumble down the block at night.

It was also great to see the crowds of people camped on the streets watching the the Euros cruising, along with the packed parking lots with GTGs. The crowds would holler at anything interesting that passed by — even our VW Routan loaner got a buzz after we let the auto doors go wild.
