Nsxpo 2018
- Thread starter LMR
- Start date
No sightseeing for me en route. The road trip is all “business” to get to the destination. 
...as fast as possible without getting a ticket.
On another note:
For those doing the HPDE and looking for track event insurance, the Type R Expo that is sharing the track with NSXPO on 9/26-27 is already up on Lockton Motorsports. Just saying for those who like to plan and budget early. For the declared value of my car, the insurance cost just under $400. Hope this helps someone.

I'll second this, I've used Lockton and they were first class all the way, no issues.
Is there a link for the track hotel? Also, for the people from the East, any interest in a caravan?

Is the HPDE going to be the entire track or just a section?
For the folks that didn't make the cut can they join us (with their NSXs) on the drive or any events?
Asking for a few friends that didn't get the NSXPO memo or were out of town on business/pleasure.

No but tell them they can get on the waiting list.
Would be nice if public roads and parking would allow for the folks that didn't make the 400 list to join us for a MASSIVE photo of a sea of NSXs.....
Managing 200+ NSXs for a photo opp is pure kaos. That is with specific instructions sent to everyone in advance. Adding more cars that may or may not show up at a specific time and method would make it unmanageable.
The same goes for group drives. Typically cars are sent out in smaller groups so they can stay together and remain organized.
The issue is, people are working really hard to keep NSXPO organized and get value to people attending. Having others that are not part of the group makes everything unpredictable and not fair to the organizers and NSXPO attendees..
Trying to determine who is NSXPO registered, and who is not, for events becomes another issue that nobody wants to manage.
Then there are issues like liability. (The club has skin in the game, responsibilities that the NSXCA is liable for)
This issue comes up every year for every NSXPO. The answer is always the same.
Sorry.
No.
Get on the waiting list. There are always a number registrations that drop off before the event.

That's a good explanation. This is my first NSXPO, so it's tough for me to visualize managing the logistics. It is too bad that there isn't an open social portion (much like a cars and coffee) that welcomes the unfortunate that weren't able to purchase their tickets in the first 24 hour window.
I have been going to xpo's on and off since 00.....as the years have gone on we are seeing faster sign-ups and fully subscribed events in days....in the past it was weeks/months...I am pleased that the clubs annual event is so popular.part of this may be due to a streamlined user interface on the club website , and social media, as well as a whole new group of new car owners.It is a great problem to have...but hopefully at future events the venues can be chosen to accommodate more folks.I can tell you as someone involved in planning an xpo, that this is not a cars and coffee.Think of it as a multi-day conference/ technical exhibit/vacation venue for spouse-guest...and a driver education event...dizzying list of responsibility/risk/liability.....this is put together over many months......the club and members use personal and business relationships esp with acura/honda corporate....
Thank you for that excellent explanation
Every year the same thing question comes up. This is a pay to play event. In 2006 a few guys crashed one of the events and did burn outs on private property at an aviation museum. Let’s say the owner wasn’t too happy and those douchebags certainly weren’t welcomed around anymore. So for anyone planning to just show up without registering or paying, don’t be that guy.
that's a FL thing.
CA are more well mannered and polite.
I can’t argue with that.

Stoked to make this my 4th NSXPO. Thanks to the organizers who are helping to put it together.
Is there a list somewhere of who's registered? I'd like to see who I'm going to play with. :smile:
