    I'm going.

    Leaving sometime Friday am, preferably around 9:00 or so.

    Staying at the Hampton Inn.

    Will have at least one other Miata with me, would like more.

    Will likely be taking the route TrackDog recommends - up 75 to Durant, then straight north on OK 48 - 2 lanes, no traffic, occasional (ok, rare) curves... It was a very pleasant drive last year.

    I might join you for the 9:00 drive. What are you planning on doing when you get there?

    I'm also staying at the Hampton.

    I've gotta work on friday. I'll most likely be going by myself. I'll take the Indian nation turnpike most likely. We'll see, it all depends on how fast I can deliver my route.

    No plans to speak of...

    We actually didn't get out of town until around 10 or after last year. We drove at a relaxed pace, stopped in some little town for lunch, and ended up at the HI sometime early afternoon. They were doing tech checks when we arrived and it took awhile to get through that, then we spent some time gawking at other folks' cars. I got a short test drive in FM's '99, made a gas run to fill up my car, had dinner...

    We stayed for the novice/instructor dinner last year. This year, I may join one of the group dinner runs instead. There'll be plenty to do...

    If I can't get out there until 7:30 pm on friday, is it even worth going? I emailed them about showing up early for tech, and it don't think I'll be able to run the first session.

    You should be able to get tech'ed at the track early Sat AM. Don't know why you'd *have* to show up any earlier than that...

    Well, getting there at 7:30 Friday means you get some dinner you already paid for. Plus it means you don't have to get up at A$$crack thirty Sat. morning to drive to the track.

    Not sure when I'm leaving yet. It depends on what my dad does. We usually meet in OKC.

    We're staying at the Budget zzz in Cleveland. 9 miles to the track in the morning. We'll be at the Hampton both evenings.

    I'll get in on the afterparty.

    My sister just haggled me to crash in her hotel. So I might go that route.

    It really just depends on whether you drive the extra 60 miles (round trip) to eat the dinner and get the freebies Sat. night. Plus we wouldn't be able to leave any non track essentials at the hotel, as we'd have to check out early in the morn.

    Can I still be a maybe? Thanks Chickity Check.

    I wouldn't think a Caravan would go around a track very fast. I'd stick with the MPV... :b

    More details needed. Is the dinner far from the track? As in an hour farther out of the way than the OKC area?

    Of course it can still be a maybe.

    If the dinner is that far away, I may have to bug out after the event & head home. Not positive though.

    Either way, the invite is open.

    Okay, so Friday...

    So far, Miatamoto, SixAce, and Black Roadster have expressed interest, plus me and Paul H. (BRG from last year). I'd suggest a meeting place in the McKinney-ish latitudes along US75 - preferably one where we could pick up some caffeine and munchies - but don't know of one off hand... Ideas, BR?

    Anyone else care to join?

    I vote for a 9:30 departure from the meeting place for Hallett, but we could push that back if you need it, Thomas. I know it's a long way from Mexico.

    Bring FRS radios if you have 'em. They may not be the best, but I know BR and Paul and I all have them...
