I plan on going both days and would be up for a meeting place... last year we pulled into King Motorsports Tent and parked and there were a few S-2000s there.

Thanks

I'm checking with some out of town friends as well. Can we get some sort of informal "paddock parking" deal with King Motorsports.

Am checking with the S2K guys as well. Greg Stevens -- you out there ??

Am checking for possible event tent sponsors, also some local clubs. I need to get a feel for level of interest.

Please send me a private email at nsx1164@speakeasy.net if interested in attending. Feel free to send any suggestions as to what you'd like to see setup (food, drink, dancing deer, etc) at this event.

TIA

Steven - do we need to get tix in advance or can we get these at the gate??

I'll probably just do Sunday (possibly Saturday if PD drives in the Touring Car race)

cojones you can pay when you enter any open gate no advance purchase needed.
