YESSS!!!!
I had the same idea!
Great place and Mt. Tremblant is a former F1 circuit.
I attended a BMW school at Tremblant last summer. The Boston BMW Club organizes this event. From memory I think they paid about $40K to use the track for a three day weekend. This included the mandatory marshals, first responders etc.
Besides the large resort accomodations there are a couple of smaller hotels in town that can house upwards of 100 with ample safe parking that were going for under $150/night.
The track is awsome, we are going back this summer.

Yeah - the more I think about this the more I believe it could be an incredible NSXPO.

Still waiting for them to get back to me. I'll post once I hear. If I don't hear by Monday I'll call them again.
It seems hotels are good to go.
Events & Family attractions are numerous.
Track potential is excellent.
Once I get word on Le Circuit I think we should put a proposal together!
Sounds good Sean, thanks for looking into the track. I can definitely help with putting the proposal together and doing some of the accompanying research for that. If we have some locals (effer?) who can help us with figuring out hotels/attractions that would be awesome.
Guys, like I said, my parents live there. They will be able to tell us everything.
Ive also thought about the parking. I may have some ideas if we cannot reserve underground.
Lets not forget that there are literally hundreds of rentable condos at the bottom of the mountain also. The hotel rents many of those out.
The track would be absolutely perfect.
Sean - if we need, I know a good friend of the owner of the track. I can tap that contact if we need.

Hey Guys,
There has been quite a bit of progress. We've got proposals from hotels and have checked into the track. A proposed schedule has been drafted. We'll be putting together a proposal soon. Cheers.

^^^^ We are hoping everyone else feels the same as you Jim and we absolutely agree - it would be a tremendous location.
Can't guarantee that I'll bring an NSX... But I would love an excuse to go back to Montreal again!
Good luck!
Good luck!
Just got back from a ski/snowmobile trip to Tremblant. Overall, I think that everything would be great. Le Grand Lodge which is on a lake within 5 minutes of Mont Tremblant resort was reasonable (deluxe 1 bedroom suite $150 Canadian which is essentially US now
). They have outdoor parking and across the street, there is the free parking lot which could easily hold the vehicles. The roads themselves seemed to be in pretty good condition and has was truly scenic. In the fall, the scenery should be spectacular. Food in the area was very good but don't look for alot of variety. There was 1 Sushi restaurant in the ski village but there were some excellent french and Italian restaurants. Most everyone also speaks english even though the first words will be Bonjour.

just got back from snowboarding there....it would make an incredible event.
As jorligan said, the facility there is truly world class, and there are a couple of fantastic spa's that could potentially keep the significant others occupied.
People could also go in together to rent houses which would make it really cheap and fun.

I don't suppose the Gilles Villeneuve circuit is available for any private practice?
Renting houses is fine but a lot of the enjoyment is the comraderie best obtained by staying in the same hotel. I would encourage a common hotel or in the worst case scenario, something like Intrawest Club where even though the units are separate like a house, there is a common area to interact. Only problem with the clubs is that there may not be enough available "rental" accomadations.

I thought we're all going to stay at SPA_S2000's parents' house.

We're still working on finishing up the proposal! Should have most of it finalized and cleaned up by the end of this weekend. Need to submit it to the NSXCA board next week.

We would have to match NSXPO with Montréal Grand Prix which should be somewhere in June ( historically around the 7th and now around 24th ).
An NSX vintage race on Gilles Villeneuve circuit during the GP week end would be awesome.
A nice opportunity for Honda when they will introduce the next NSX!!!!
