'Cmon guys, you all know that when I make an itinerary no one reads, prints or follows it anyway, lol 🙂
Who’s leaving Thursday night with us?
Here is the plan so far;
**_Thursday_**
**7pm-ish - Leave Buffalo.** Since some people won’t be able to leave until later, we’ll just head out to the hotels Thursday night. Since it’s so late, we won’t be able to get into the facility Thursday night as no one will be around to let us in. We’ll probably find a place for dinner, then turn in early. (With the exception that MPD47 will begin drinking around the time we arrive, lol)
**_Friday_**
**7am** - Leave hotel for the track
**8am** - Arrive at track, and begin setup
\*It is important to note that you should arrive at the track as close to 8am as possible EACH DAY so that you’ll be able to drive your car to the showcase area!
**5pm** - Make sure you’re back at the showcase area waiting and ready to get into your cars and out on the track!
**6pm-6:30pm** - Lapping Watkins Glen
After lapping, you can do whatever you want. Go back to the hotel, or stay in town for the fireworks / parties / drinking with MPD47. You’ll just have to decide if you want to leave your car at the track overnight, or drive it back to the hotel.
**_Saturday_**
**7am** - Leave hotel for the track
**8am** - Arrive at the track and re-setup the showcase area.
The whole day is up to you guys as to what you want to do, when you want to leave, etc. We’ll likely all brain storm when we get there as to if we want to go out on the town, etc. I want to go to the actual Glen park sometime and do some filming and maybe find some :snky: roads to film on later that night. MPD47 should be plenty drunk by now.
**_Sunday_**
**7am** - Leave hotel (check out) and head to the track
**8am** - Arrive at the track and re-setup the showcase area.
The actual race happens on Sunday. This will be the busiest of all 3 days! After the race is over, we’ll being to pack up and leave.

You don’t HAVE to head out Thursday night with us, just as long as you’re there early Friday to get in.

OH MAN! I really want to go still… Oh well, I guess drinking in the Adirondaks may be close to as fun as drinking with MPD. The hair is a dead giveaway that he can never be sober, I mean that is like 356% Irish

which entrance do we use and how to we get in?
Do we just roll up to the gate and say we’re with the Onyx Syndicate?
