there are a few people in other threads that say they are interested, but thats all they have said. it sure would be nice if they would come. i know matt (sygerwulf) is down for the meet. i haven't talked to him in a while though. and he obviously hasnt' been on NICO any. but i told him about it and i know he said he would come. i wish i had his phone number.

Ok, I have talked to Anthony...but...no confirmation yet. Also, the track will only be open till 4 pm Central Time. Those coming in from more than a couple hours away will need to spend the night Friday night!!! Which will be fine, since there are already a couple of people that will be here...Me, Ben, Redrocket.

Yeah...that's the only way I see that we could do it. There's no way to save the track unless we have the full amount. We also need to decide on a price for those that show up and haven't paid I guess..??? Need some input on that...

Ok everyone, I just got off the phone with Chris, and got the information I needed about the meet. I won’t post it here because it isn’t my place. Things are going to start rolling here soon. Yes we have till March, but we all want this to be a good meet.

I am going to be designing flyers this week, and having them printed. Our three main target areas are BG, Lexington, and Louisville. We are going to set up contact people in each of the three areas to handle passing out the flyers and taking care of the people in their region.

Chris is in charge of BG.

I will be in charge of Lexington area

I need a couple of people for contacts in Louisville.

Your number will be put on the flyer so if you don’t want it out. Don’t ask to be the contact (we can still use you though).

Contact me, so we can discuss this. I want the flyer to be finished my wed. so please act quick.

My info is:Scott ElamCell (859) 333-8799Aol im: skippyhippyEmail: [email protected] (there is a “_ “in there)

Thanks, and let’s make this a good meet.

~Scott

Plans are still for March 8th looks like we are right on track.

I met two more guy last nite who said they will come <for sure>.

Post by **cnichols** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

Well guys, it looks like Anthony has decided to have the import meet after all. He said he is 100% sure (that's what HE said, but he always has kept his word in the past) that he is going to front the money. He's not even trying to make money, just come close to breaking even.

So....here's what he told me...we will open Beech Bend at 10 am on March 8th for Test & Tune until 1 pm when the racing will start. If the racing finishes early, I don't see why Test & Tune can't continue. It will be $20 to run and $5 to enter without racing.

There will be only 2 classes: Naturally aspirated and Power Adders with $100 prizes to the winners of each and a plaque for 2nd and 3rd. If this doesn't appeal to you....there will still be Test & Tune on Sunday for $10 as well.

Since the time frame is going to be rather early....I figure we can all congregate after Beech Bend to shoot the s*** and meet everyone. Hopefully, everyone will be spending at least one night if not both so that we all have a chance to meet.

I should be on AIM (midcnichols) for awhile tonight and most of tomorrow...feel free to e-mail with questions at cdnich01@bellsouth or talk on AIM.

Thats great news!Thanx for the hard work Chris.

I agree lets just all meet at the track at 10am and skip the Corvette museum.

The Louisville caravan can meet at Rallys at 9:30 local (EST) leaving at 10 local which will get us to BB around 10:30 am CST.

Lets put out the word !

meet at the track? thats gonna be confusing for alota people. hmm. i sure hope we give good directions!!

Post by **jEzTeR** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

http://www.beechbend.com/directions.htmHey Ben get the track add. so I can try map~quest too...

Post by **PalmerWMD** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

The louisville and northern states crew will drive thru and find it ok.Cuz we will have at least some who will remember.

If a member local to BG (hint hint) could post real detailed directions from the interstate to teh track that should solve all problems.

It really <would > make it a lot smoother, if we all met at the track, and its not so hard to find either.

Out of staters, can email me for my cell number in case they get lost.

Fred...:thumbup

Post by **UncleBen** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

i can tell you how to get there, just not sure what street names are. i was up that way today also. if i had known to check, i would have written them down. dang

Post by **darkeagle** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

I might see about when I come up for my early trip up to get look around I might try to get this guy my mom knows to come with me. He I think used to live up in KY soo he knows where all that is which is cool. Only thing is just getting him to come up early and Im still going to try to catch up with Ben, I'll still let you know on when Ben and maybe a couple others. I know I talked to one on Yahoo about that uhh....rendereddreams, I think.

But I know I'll be fine just get the right directions and all.

I e-mailed TonyVQ pretty detailed directions with a map as a Word document.

Anybody who needs directions, just e-mail me at [email protected] as long as you have Microsoft Word.

Also, Fred, because there are 3 threads for this meet, maybe there should be a sticky at the top with the latest info (directions, time, money, and Motel 6 number). I'll also try to get a site up with the map and all the info soon.

Post by **UncleBen** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

good idea chris. instead of having the attendees search through 3 threads to find all the info., i think it would be much easier to put it all in one thread, and make a sticky. it would make it much easier on everyone i'm sure!

Post by **PalmerWMD** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

I'll do this today

Post by **jEzTeR** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

I think thats a great IDEA too!:D

Post by **redrocket** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

Chris give me a call and forward the info to my email so I can take it and create a web page and throw it on team injection's website so everyone will know

I would like to make a suggestion on the meeting place (pre-meet) in Louisville the morning of March 8th. Instead of having it at the Rally's where we have met before, how would you feel if we moved the meeting location to the Meijer on Preston right off the Gene Snyder (I-265)? I think this may be a better location because:

1. We are going to have A LOT more cars there this time around and there is a lot more room in the Meijer lot than in the Rally's one.

2. It will be much easier to line up before we head out because of the extra room.

3. We will be making all right turns and be dealing with less traffic lights. Right out of Meijer, right onto I-265 and right onto I -65. Much much easier than trying to make a left onto Preston at Rally's even with a light, the only light we will have to worry about is the one at Meijer and that will be a right turn, and it will help us all stay together.

What's everyone think??

Post by **jEzTeR** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

Not a bad idea Tony.Its still close enuff to the old Rallys location and yet a bit better for the reasons listed in your post.What do you think Fred?

Post by **PalmerWMD** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

I think thats a good idea now I will just have to change my directions in my sticky..

Fred...

Post by **jEzTeR** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

Ok sounds good ill chang it on my stuff also.:thumbup

Post by **PalmerWMD** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

Fred...:thumbup

Post by **I30** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

If I dont go to the meet in BG then I will go to the premeet in Louisville.

Post by **jEzTeR** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

Quote »Jezter are u still doing the flyers[/quote] Yeah Fred im going to try and get a copy of what some of the other people's Flyers to use the best one.I dont like mine much for some reason.Ill let you know.

Post by **cnichols** » Mon Jan 13, 2003 7:30 pm

If you guys could wait on the final cuts of the flyers until I can get you the logo of the shop who is sponsoring this event I would appreciate it.

I would feel bad if we advertised this as our own meet when he's going to be fronting all the money for it. I think he at least deserves to have his company name on it.

If you don't agree, that's fine, just wanted to let you know what I was thinking and that I am getting a copy of the logo in the next couple of days.

Get on the ball

Louisville People!
