2002 NSXPO Adventure

WOW… what an impressive event.

-Nice Hotel (****)
-Good parking facilities (Safe and reserved for NSXPO)
-Good Food (I’m an admitted picky eater)
-Unexpected Giveaways (Chair, Wine, T-Shirt, Bag, Pens, Hats, Chemicals, Polo style shirt, Poster)
-Mostly free drinks (beer was good)
-Police motorcycle and helicopter escort (I could here local businesses bleeding in on our radios. Some thought it was some kind of police chase others thought it was a bunch of rich guys in Corvettes)
-Cool drag strip if front of the hotel (from what I observed)
-Cool organized indoor go-cart event (exclusive NSXPO event)
-The Stock Yard was interesting (Some of us came back here for dinner on Saturday)
-Great people (A good place to put a face to a name)
-A Big Thank You to Goodson Acura (They brought two lifts, an air compressor, wheel balancer, tire changer, numerous other tools, and a parts truck to all three of the track events. They had as many as 7 mechanics working on our cars for free… and if we needed parts that we didn’t already have, they gave us a 25% discount.) Thanks Susan
-Interesting seminars (I came with a list of questions)
-Awesome variety of cars (A great place to see what you want to buy)
-Motorsport Ranch (exclusive NSXPO event) Awesome road course for a first timer, or for someone who wants to test the limits of their car or themselves. Very technical, and very safe. (Good spinouts, with no damage or injuries)
-Great Hot Lap session that was held during Saturday’s lunch by a non-NSXCA organization. (Did I get that right?)
-Did I mention that Maria H. wears the driving-pants in the family (I’m not sure I’m going to go into detail)
-Texas Motor Speedway (exclusive NSXPO event) another awesome event. I personally like the challenges of Motorsport Ranch better, but as it was explained in our riders meeting “ Every one needs to experience high banks sometime in their lives”.
-Garage Pits (It was cool to utilize the same pit stalls as the famous racers we know)
-Thank you to the Corner Workers of both tracks
-One of the most notable things I observed was excellent organization. A lot of planning and effort was put into this event for it to have been pulled off so smoothly. I’ve been a part of numerous high dollar events, that don’t pack this many features so seamlessly.
-Thank You to Everyone who helped make this event happen!

I felt sad to go, and look forward to next year.

Does your dealership have a web site? I’m not sure my local Acura dealership knows what an NSX is, and thought that a web site may make it easier to order parts from you.
 
Rob,
It was great meeting you at NSXPO! You'll have to hook up with the Florida group again soon. We have lots of events planned for next year.
Kudos to EVERYONE from South Central who worked so hard so that we could have fun in their backyard...thanks guys.
Goodson Acura...WOW. I am so grateful for your support during our track days. Those who own NSX's in the Dallas area are fortunate to have such a dedicated team of professionals to look out for them. Thanks Kevin, Susan and the rest!

I've heard that Acura Carland does a fair amount of NSX service work, as does Dad's Garage, an independent NSX mechanic in Duluth.
