Hey guys, I've got tpost this here to keep everyone up to date with the new Meet I'm planning. Here are the details so far:

When: 2-4-05 - 2--6-05 A weekender!!

Where: Oak Mountain State Park in Pelham, AL (about 20 miles south of Birmingham. Just off I-65.

Plans: Oak Mountain has large pavillion areas for gathering. Gorgeous landscapes for picture taking. Beautiful roads for cruising, RC car track, BMX track, public beach, Grilling facilities, Camping sites, fishing. Within 2 miles of the park is Ice Skating, Bowling, Shopping, Backroads for cruising. We are getting a current schedule from Barbers Motorsports Park to see if we can get in to watch the Porsche drivers race. Saturday night we may caravan to a local drag strip about 45 minutes away for some "put your money where your mouth is".

Who is coming?:

4. Minus (Derek-blue mp3)
5. My wife (Kendra-titanium 3S)

Also, I'd like to think our first sponsor www.BHAMRACING.com for helping me with the tab on this one. They are providing grills for cooking out on and also helping with the cost of renting the pavillion and supplies.

I'd like to ask everyone bring $10 to help cover some of the costs of this event and the food. You will most likely need $2 a car or so to get into the park. I'm going to see if I can get this waived for a large group or else you can just pay this entry fee out of the $10. Remember this is not required just requested. I'd rather have a lot of people show up and not pay then not have people show up because they didn't want to.

A few rules: these must be followed at all times.
#1. No alcohol. This is a statepark and you will be ticketed or arrested.
#2. No racing, heavy accelerating or burnouts
#3. No fighting. I don't care how much you hate me. No'one wants to go to jail in Alabama...

 

I'll try and make it..better commitment closer to date...Baby coming in January, so we'll see

 

hmmm i gotta think about that, AL...wow what a drive...hopefully some people would be heading out from Tampa so i wont ride alone!! i'll keep you posted to see if i can make it there....

 

good deal. I drove over 11hours each way to Ohio so if I can do it you guys can.

 

Be there or be....triangular.


Waiting on further word from the Miata, MX3, MX6 and 929/626 people. I have gotten alot of responses from the RX7 people.

Oh, you finally decided to register.....

I'll see if I can get some of the Austin TX boys to go with me, sounds like fun!

 

good gracious...TX to AL....thats a haul right there!!

 

Take a fri and a monday off and it would be ok. Plus I would like to meet you and the others in person.

 

thats a good point. I took a fri/mon off to drive to ohio and it wasn't that bad. How far of a drive do you think you have??

I think on the 4th (that friday) I'll be at home during the day putting a header and MIL on Thurman's car.


Do you guys have any preference of events saturday after lunch??? I was thinking either bowling, ice skating, Watchign the porsche's ar Barber's (if available) or a long cruise. Later that night we're all caravaning up to Lassiter Mountain Drag strip for some smack talk and racing. Sunday will be pictures and lunch and then most people will be heading home.
