Yes, you'll be fine going that way.  You could also take I-15 South to the 215 Beltway and that will take you down to the 95 in Henderson.

From the first post in this thread:

"The Friday FREE BBQ will again be at Bicentennial Park, one of the largest and nicest parks in Boulder City. The park features plenty of parking for our cars, a gazebo, clean restrooms and playground for the kids. We will also have use of the grill and picnic tables."

BBQ is slated to start around 1 p.m., but exact timing probably depends on how long the mine tour runs.

You underestimate Concords. I've driven a wide variety of AMC's and I think the Concord DL or Limited is the smoothest, quietest, most luxurious, best riding, most ergonomic and comfortable car that AMC ever built. It's almost freaky how quiet they are inside. It's like driving around in a tomb. You can have a conversation by whispering. There isn't a hint of vibration at any speed. 

It's a shame they are not liked more. They're great cars, they're just.....boring. 



Matt, I drove a Concord once back in the day and had the same impression.  Since their suspension seems to be like every other AMC from 1970 up I often wondered how they made them so quiet.  Will have to check yours out while I'm there!

We've settled on a 1:30pm start for the BBQ, but as always, everybody is welcome to come early to watch me set up! The park is absolutely beautiful! There are picnic tables, lots of shade, and restrooms.

I'm arriving around noon, to check-in then BBQ. The mine tour is too early for me, I'd have to get up at 3am. I'm caravanning with Bruce Gasser.

Whew! Well that was fun! Just got back late afternoon. Met CamJam, I was hoping to see FSJunkie, were you there? Bummer if you were and I missed you.

Met a friend I hadn't seen in 44 years! Wow that's a trip I Can tell you. It was sort of like time hadn't passed.

We met, we just didn't know it. I was there with my red metallic Concord DL sedan. 

You must have owned the gray Rambler American wagon with the orange graphics on it. Larry Daum and I were talking you you about the Carter YF that you had on it instead of the RBS. I just didn't make the connection that it was you.

Nice to meet you anyway, I suppose! 

I had so much fun this year. It was wonderful to see everybody and nerd out about AMC together. I saw a lot of friends that I haven't seen in a few years.
