Obviously each portion is optional. NO PART is required. Feel free to invite friends with different makes to attend the races with us!

Hotels need to be booked AT LEAST 1 week before the meet. Feel free to PM or call me if you need anything. My phone number is 515-202-4737.

Please post in this thread once you have booked your hotel and confirmed your attendance. Also, please post how many people you will have with you, where you are staying, and which events you will participate in. I will set up the golf later on if we have enough interest.

Even if you dont drink or like bars, you will still have a blast. A lot of people didnt drink last year and they still had a lot of fun! This is the second large meet I have planned, you wont be disapointed!

Thanks,
Nick

I got the 26th off of work, so I'm good for the whole weekend. All that's left is to decide where to stay and whom to stay with.

I live an hour and a half away so Yeah ill be there saturday afternoon

[dirt_cheap_fleetwood]

Definitely gonna be there all day Saturday, except for the drinking part. I think everyone should bring a cigar instead. I will see if I can get a camping spot for Friday night at the Illiniwek Forest Preserve in Hampton, IL. Its only $11 a night for anyone who doesn't have a hotel yet, just bring a tent and a sleeping bag. They have showers and its 13.2 miles (20 minutes, according to Google) from the casino where everyone else is staying and 13.7 miles from the drag strip. The only problem is they might not let anyone in after 10:00, so I may have to leave the drag strip a little early Friday night. I still have to call them and see about open spots. I would have to meet you at the track Friday night since I don't get out of school until 3:30.

I am ALWAYS up for a good stogey.

The only thing I smoke is rubber, but with this car, I can't do that, so I need to fill my smoking void.

Shit, I just remembered. Anyone with a sunroof should probably bring a helmet for racing!!!! If someone has extra helmets laying around I would really appreciate if you could bring them.
