    Wow! Lots of cars to test drive, many of which I've never driven before. Too bad I'm not too motivated to drive 330+ miles, each way to visit the event.

    Although admission is free, parking is $9. The website lists that there is a discount for people that arrive on a bike, and there is info on public transit. I think the $9 is to encourage people to carpool and take alternative forms of transportation.
