Rocky, I can't believe that I sold the Nomad either!
Funny you should ask about the tree...
Unless something has changed in the past 6 or 7 years, you can still drive through the redwood tree. In fact I bought the Nomad in Washington state. JWHAP and I drove it 1,600 miles home and we went right through the redwood tree (actually it is in a park of some sorts).
Driving the Nomad through the tree caused quite a stir, with folks demanding that I drive very slowly so they could film it.
Ricki always wanted to drive through the tree so I drove through it twice, once with her outside to take a photo and once with her in the car so that she could experience the drive through.
Oh and you really know how to hurt a guy with that video.
I've heard Hot August Nights is supposed to be very fun but also very crowded. You will have a blast though! I haven't gone to that event personally but I know quite a few people that have.
