Re: Midwest meet in Spring, '07
I would drive down for that, Let me know when things sound more specific.
You in for race night?? I want to race an Eldo REALLY bad!!
Heres my thoughts on the meet- Were getting close to pulling the trigger on this plan. I will take Friday off work. people are OK to arrive at my house anytime Friday to hang out and what not.
Friday-
Leave for cedar falls to race at 3pm
meet at hotel at 4:30 pm in CF
Get food- probably fast food
head to race track at about 5:45pm
race until they close or we decide to leave
head to some bars in Cedar falls
from there who knows on Friday! LOL
Not everyone has to go to Cedar Falls. We will have a block of rooms lined up for friday in both Des Moines and CF. If you want to go but not race Im sure you could ride up to CF with one of us that are racing. I might have my brother drive my Dad's Slade so we should have plenty of seats.
Saturday-
Youre on your own for breakfast
Meet at 1pm for motrocade
motorcade leaves at 1:15 pm
arrive at porkys at about 1:40pm
have a group lunch at 2:15pm
3:30- go outside and look around at cars
stay at porkys as long as you want- people arrive for the car night around 5 or 6 usually. This night will have 100s of people there and Im sure they would like seeing our cars. Leave when you want.
We could meet for dinner around 8;30 if you guys want or some people can stay at Porky's if they want
Go to a bar/club at 10 or 10:30
Stay at the bar until 2am for last call
head to my house or someones hotel room to party more. Strip club or after hours club is also a possibilty at this point. both stay open until 5 or 6 and are BYOB.
Sunday-
get brunch at Granite CITY at 11:30am
Shoot a round of golf at about 2pm or people can leave or just hang out if desired.
End of meet- if others want to hang out after golf thats cool with me
None of the activities are required. participation is solely up to all of you. We will have information for other things to do listed. No matter what youve heard- Des Moines is a pretty big city with plenty to do. Its a gorgeous and safe city to visit. if you have a family or are not big on partying there is plenty for you to do!
Let me know what you guys think of this. Ill discuss this with John on the phone also.
