"It’s a done deal…the show will be 8am to 4pm Sat July 17 at Planet Hollywood.
They’ll sell beer and water outside.
Still working the Hotel info. Next task will be the fun stuff…thinking about trying to have some track fun at Myrtle Beach Speedway on Friday night.
Burn out contest…and 0-60-0.
How’s this sound??? Other ideas welcome…keep in mind this is a half mile track so space is limited. I’m also going to check into the drag strip and see which is the better deal.
In order to make this happen…we need to hear from you. We’re also looking into ordering Tshirts and hats to sell to pay for all this."
"This is all still in the works…but 95% sure we will have SOME sort of event like dragstrip, burnout contest, road course, 0-60-0, etc. Just not sure yet, as we have to find a location first. Our next step is to get all of our sponsors on board with us. So far, Hawks Third Gen and Zues Performance are willing to help…and other shops like Tick have shown interest in coming down. Once we get our sponsors on board with us, things can really start to take off! As always…we are posting info as we recieve it! As for the tent…I don’t see why not, since Planet Hollywood is goin g to have people there selling beer and food outside, I’m sure they’ll have a tent doing that, so why not us too?
If any local shops are following this thread…feel fee to PM me or Terry (WipFbody) if ya’ll are interested in helping us make this weekend something that will be hopefully grow to be HUGE!"
“I found a hotel (not ocean front, but still nice) that will do us a group rate for $75 a night. you will NOT beat that price for this time of the year! I reserved 50 rooms, and we can increase or decrease that number in the future. I’ll have more info in a few days as far as a link for you all to reserve your room and a coupon code to use to get this price.”
“Its a La Quinta on North Kings Hwy…I’ll post a link once the manager sends it to me, but they don’t want all the people really calling in yet until they get everything set up for us, as far as locking in the group rate in the computer system (whatever that consists of). A few of us stayed in it last year, and its a nice hotel! They even have a covered area for 15-20 cars to park under.”
