Who's going to be there? where & when?

• coleman - Fri-Sun - TWS both days - Hilton
• 97CasperCobra - Manor House
• 03 Cobra Toy - Fri-Sun - TWS both days - Manor House
• olchakla - Fri-Sun - TWS one day? - Manor House

Area Hotels:

• Manor House Inn - 800-231-4100

I have *NO* idea which hotels are nicer, so buyer (renter) beware! Does anyone have an honest opinion about any of the above (or other) hotels?

We'll have to schedule other activities around the TWS activities!
Any ideas?

i think racerat is going to make it, but i doubt this has anything to do with NMRA finals...

this is an open tracking driving event & a central enough location for a big Texas-area GTG...

 

[Domeskilla]

ah, well... i dont know then, marc will decide.

I will be there. Hotel of choice is Manor Hotel, those doing TWS get a discounted rate. Hope to see a LOT of you peeps out there, and hope some more of you sign up to run this course.

03 Cobra Toy, maybe you can provide me a list of who's going to attend the OT event, but i'm also interested in capturing (& encouraging) a larger GTG turnout...

What kind of track accomodations will be made/available for any family and/or other enthusiasts?

This event is for learning how to handle you car in a safe manor. I would say that about 80% of the people that will be out there will be first timers....click on the above link for all the info on cost...:thumbsup:

If my car survives back to back TMS events this weekend then I will be there, if not then I will be looking for another car on Monday.

I missed the night event also, the pool contractors did a number on our gas/electrical/internet/tv connections. Spent all day just getting gas/electrical back, internet/tv was out four days. MRS on Sunday and then TWS with the group.

I got my reservation for Hamption Inn Friday and Saturday night.

the hotels listed are booked, unless you like Coleman and have family you could mooch off of, you better search around. The Motel 6 had vacancies also.

Now I Gotta figure out where to change my brake pads to Hawk Blues at.

Plus I be danged if I can remember when I had my last tetnus shot for the medical form.

How about an update as to whose signed up to attend, one or two days, and when your staying at and getting there

CARAVAN, we can alternate front door and back door to share the risks
