Guys this is incorrect the Mini Grand Prix is $19.95, this includes two slices of pizza a pitcher of soda for every 4 people and 90 minutes yup 1 and 1/2 hours of track time!!! Yes I am sure, I booked it

should only take a couple days to install once they get it. you should be done in plenty of time. you can break it in on the drive over.

weren't you planning a montana trip? when's that?

Dam......Unfortunatly the nature of our beast. Maybe Mazda can get you ready in time. Sure would hate to see our Oregon entry have to cancel.

Yea I forgot about that change.....we gain a half hour and some food for $2. The are supposed to close down all the adult track for just us.


The change in the watering hole will be posted as soon as Reaper confirms the new joint........The original was too small for the projected group. I will post all changes to the first post and others can copy from there.

Friday evening party: When we leave the In & Out Burger, we will caravan to Las Vegas Mini Gran Prix (outdoor track). The cost is $19.95 and includes two slices of pizza a pitcher of soda for every 4 people and 90 minutes yup 1 and 1/2 hours of track time!! Also, there will be a no host bar at (being revised) restaurant bar.

Saturday drive meet point: In & Out Burgers on West Sahara 10:00am We will meet at the In & Out Burger parking lot on West Sahara for a drive in the Las Vegas area. The drive is about two and one half hours in length, will cover 125 miles and will end at the Fiesta Hotel & Casino on Rancho Road for lunch. The top floor of the parking garage will be set aside for our parking use and is supposed to be roped off and have a guard. After lunch we will have a raffle for several items donated by vendors. There will be a several hour break for rest, recreation and sight seeing. The party group (all that wish to attend) will meet at the Hoffbrauhaus for beer, food and friendship from 7pm until ?


Saturday evening party: Hoffbrauhaus , Las Vegas, 7:00pm (no host) (be advised that parking is terrible at this corner) This is just a get together place, some may want to sight see or go to a show. Feel free to do as you wish. It's Vegas Baby!!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This years drive will be close in to Las Vegas and will be on all paved roads (unless the state or county do their thing again this year), some narrow roads and some twisty roads and some freeway. There will be vehicles within the group to offer assistance if you are in need.

The weather will again this year be very warm but not blazing hot (yet). Be sure you carry drinking water, a hat, vehicle water and oil. All places that we get together will be at places that have food so those that are still under drinking age will be welcome.

NOTICE: If you are listed on the attendees list, please post if you will have a passenger for the event or if two of the listed attendees intend to drive together (name would be nice but not mandatory). We are now up to the 70s in attendees and would like to figure the actual count of vehicles and peeps. If for any reason you do not sure of having a passenger, that's OK just let me know that it's a MAYBE.
Raffle tickets will be available Friday evening, Saturday morning and Saturday lunch up until the drawing starts

Vegas 8's and Sin City Rotary will be offering a T shirt/beer mug combination remembrance for sale at the meet. Try and save $20.00 to purchase one of the remembrance combinations. The shirts are being printed as I post this. The beer mugs are complete and ready. A preliminary printing pic of the Ts is some where else with in this post. In short the T will have a printing of the advertising pic and the mugs will have a print of a design made up by the designer of the main pic. I will post pics of them soon. The sets will be in limited amount of 60 sets and available on the Friday evening meet. There will be extra T shirts available beyond the first set limitation
To insure proper sizing available for each of you, a note stating your T shirts size would be nice. Right now there will be a limited amount of 3X, several 2X, several XL, few of the Large and a limited amount of medium for the ladies.


In addition some specialty vendors have donated some items for a raffle NGK donated some spark plugs for the 7s and 8s, Maguires is donating some car care products to be bundled for a raffle try, Black Halo Racing has donated a $250.00 gift certificate, there will be a limited few of the art work posters in the raffle, Pettit Racing has donated several items for both the 7s and the 8s. We are still in negotiations with several other specialty vendors for some additional raffle items.

those who choose to participate can follow the caravan there and ride the karts.
even if you're not riding, you can hang out there and watch the shenanigans.

Chase: the carting is for Friday night.
when we get to Vegas, everyone will scatter and do their own thing until we meet up at In-N-Out.

I'm sure some of us will hit the tables, others will lounge by the pool, some will go in search of strippers, and others will get their asses kicked by a little Chinese guy who they didn't know was hiding in their trunk. Seriously, it's Vegas. That **** happens.
