Yes, I already have over that now since we had to drive up and get it.

Melvin and I are looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Are we meeting somewhere prior to this event? Is there something going on that evening, this will determine if I need a hotel or not for Saturday night.
What time do we need to be at the raceway? This will determine whether I come up Saturday morning or Friday night.
Thanks

The race track does not open for these events till around 5pm Saturday., We had talked about going a little later this time so it would not be so hot. Last time Wildcat and Woohoo made some plans for eating and Saturday afternoon for all of us. Wildcat is at nationals right now but had talked about during some Grand Prix and maybe Putt-Putt Saturday afternoon before racing. Last time we all meet Friday night in Grapevine for dinner and visiting as well as lunch on Saturday.
So we are waiting to see what all they want to do.

Hey OP, it is really worth making a weekend of it if you are able. We had so much fun last time. I'm sure you will enjoy yourselves. Also, you will get to see the paintjob on the "Batmobile". I hope yall are able to stay a while.

Thanks, will just be me as LP has to work, someone's gotta pay for the SSR

I'll try and spend as much time as I can and stay married...

pfisterlevel · 08-19-2006, 12:53 PM

I completely understand! We will keep you out of trouble. Hopefully LP can make it on another trip with us. Sorry I missed yall in Kemah last week.

Grapefest is on in Grapevine that weekend. They close Main St. have wine tasting, a grape stomp, entertainment (bands, etc.) and a rare Italian car show (you know, like a Fiat that actually runs

). See the website for more details. http://www.grapevinetexasusa.com/grapefest/

Wow! You are correct! We were under the impression it was a week earlier. I will attend the Texas Moter Speedway Event and sacrifice the Grapeland Event. Thanks for the heads up on that one.

I am so confused! Which one is which? Are there two separate events about grapes? When this is over, I'm gonna need to drink from the grapes!

I think I have it now, Grapevine Grape fest is on Sept. 8 & 9.
Grapeland Grape fest is Oct. 15th.

I should have stayed in college.

Bumping this back to the first post of this thread. This is just two weeks away and just reminding everyone again.
Looking for more SSR fanatics to join us at the track. We all had a great time last May and Wildcat and Woohoo arranged neat eating places and activities for us to do.
I am sure they will host us all again.

We are just two weeks away from the Laps for Charity event at Texas Motor Speedway. I just wanted to plant a seed here for anyone who is still undecided if they will be going. We expect to have a good group out there and since we have done this before, we are now seasoned veterans. Let the good times roll!!!!

Dennys sounds great to us if everyone else agrees.

Focks-
If you are coming to the TMS please don't bring De "BYRUS".

Melvin

nelson · 08-29-2006, 06:19 AM

Wildcat--Thanks for coming up with ideas for all of us to do.

Whatever you decide will be fine with us. We are staying in Grapevine at the Comfort Suites and will arrive Friday afternoon.

DENNYS sounds great

Wildcat I LIKE that new avatar I'm ready to picnic anytime

Had dinner with FOCKS and Diane last nite, they had lots of stories to tell about their adventures up north can't wait to hear more from everyone else that went

woohoo · 08-29-2006, 07:32 AM

Soounds like we have a plan. I may not be able to make all the festivities, but will try. Still not feeling too good, but just taking it one day at a time. Looks like we will have a good turnout.

pfisterlevel · 08-29-2006, 08:08 AM

I will be arriving on Friday in the "Batmobile". I look forward to seeing everyone again. Denny's sounds fine for Saturday morning.

John

wildcat66 · 08-29-2006, 04:59 PM

I will call the Dennys to see how much room they have and get back to you.

Byers have you been to this resturant? Can you give me an address?

wildcat66 · 08-29-2006, 08:52 PM

Thanks Man!

houtex · 08-29-2006, 10:25 PM

Done the TMS twice - will wait until next year. Y'all have fun. Besides - will be landing at IAH coming in from Brazil just about the time y'all are running. BTW - know what the plural of y'all is??? All y'all.
