It is great to hear that it was a great event with an awesome turn-out.

but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up,
totally worn out, and proclaiming

"Wow What a Ride"

It’s up from last year - they announced that it was the largest National Truck-in in the last 15 years...!

That is a great turnout. The last time a Nats had over 700 vans was in 2002 at Hillsboro, Ohio, they had 750. The Nats in Butler, PA in 1999 had over 900, I believe it was around 915 or 920, Jim would know. Where is it being held next year.

As long as it's in that general area the numbers will look pretty good. (self edit).

Mass next year, I believe. Somewhere up that way.......

It was a great turn out and GREAT TIME, I personally would like to thank TiTT and all the clubs that helped out, it's a lot of work and everything seemed to run very smooth. Great to see all my Vanning friends and plenty of new blood with some incredible new vans. Thanks again for another great Nats!!!!!

cheers
Scott

Thanks Jim for correcting the total, I looked last night and found I had wrote down a total of 945. Any idea of the last Nats that broke the 1000 mark, probably late 80s, early 1990s. Any where we can find out who won the show awards this year or even see some pics posted. No FB here.

I heard 1995 was last time there was over 1,000 vans during the trophy ceremony at 46th van nats.
Had a blast. 250 vans participated in the Cornfield Cruise. Our proceeds from the commemorative sticker sales & some shirts ($724) got donated to the Police (for leading & blocking intersections), Rennsalear Parks for People Campaign, and the vanner affiliated 2nd Chance for Pets Network.

Here's some pics from the local newspaper:

Virtual & others we had set up on the cruise route also have some great pics that will emerge over time.
