New Info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SIA stuff

I just got off the phone with Mike Mattingly from SIA and he has the dates of the 20-24 reserved for us. We will be able to take tours on either friday or monday. Also we have usage of the rec room at the plant for functions (food stuff I am guessing). Now for the creme de la creme...... He is now going to try to set up a track day on their south parking lot. They just hosted an event three weekends ago and he said they can easily use the same track layout. I told him that interest had waned slightly and he said that was not a problem because employees would love to come and race in their vehicles too. So, my guess would be something like a tour on friday, tech/ garage stuff friday night at SIA, autocross on saturday, abd then dinner saturday night in the rec room (if it is still open as details on this are still vague). Sunday i am not sure about, but that is what I have come up with so far.

Wow, sound awesome!

Wish I could go...

Oh well, I'd probably just end up breaking a thousand dollar part while auto-crossing ANYWAY...

If we couldn't generate sufficient interest when the hotel rates were half as much as they are now, I don't think there is much chance of a big change in attendance because of a possible autocross and a rec room dinner.

The main problem has always been September.

True but remember not everyone is staying at that hotel ( myself included and I know that someone else is staying with relatives ). However it would be nice to know exactly how many people/ cars are still going to be coming.

Ask for an updated list of those members who are definitely going to post here.
By the time the meet it is 2 weeks away, everyone should have decided. Those who are unsure at the 2 week mark probably won't go.

By then, some of the vague plans with SIA's involvement should have been resolved.

hey guys, just got back in the country this morning. I know the tour stuff was vague, but I mean what I say. I never got much feedback on the monday/friday thing from the rest of the planning crew but i made sure we had it anyway. Mike also said they have a Wireless PA system if we need it BTW.
The autox is a great idea, I had been trying to set up something similar elsewhere, but being unable to meet with people in person I have not been able to get too many people to take me seriously. The thought never crossed my mind that SIA would entertain the idea

I will obviously still be there and I should be +1

As you'll see, I'm the only SVX in attendance but took third in STX.

Who is still committed as the two week mark approaches?


For a true anniversary meet, you need to have more members in attendance than Earl has cars...
