Default Barrett-Jackson, Russo and Steele -other auctions?

Everyone knows about Barrett-Jackson, it seems, and many attend. But what about the other auctions? B-J gets most of the ink (and attendees), Russo and Steele gets a little press, but you hear little of RM, Kruse and Silver. Does anyone go to these "other" auctions?

I have to admit, I've only attended B-J in the past, but will be at Russo this year since I'm selling a car at each.

Russo is worth going to and close to Barrett. Drew has built himself a nice auction.. Silver will probably be a ghost town since it has decided to be on the same weekend as Barrett and typically has lower priced cars. It used to be the weekend before. RM is more sports and exotics than musclecars. Kruse is a week later.

Two friends of mine attended B/J last year.They arrived just as it starting raining.They couldn't get very close to the main tent for coverage,so they wondered back to their car.As they did they noticed some homeowners in surrounding houses selling cars in their front yards.They drove over to check them out,and witnessed mini auto auctions going inside some garages.Some of the homeowners wives made chocolate chip cookies.They ended up buying two cars over there w/o fees and never made it back to B/J that weekend.

Just chocolate chip cookies.

They are going back again this year,but without attending any of the major auctions,instead just focusing on surrounding homes.

The only "surrounding homes" around Westworld would be a bird house in a cactus.....
