anyone? anyone?
looking to get out there for at least the FLR event Sun, and hopefully the test & tune Sat also barring anyMORE unforeseen issues with the car.
any of you guys who have been there and camped on the field lmk how that works- this will be our 1st time at SeAD… do you just pick a spot when you get there or do you have to let someone know you’re doing that in advance or…?
I was going to start a thread on this considering I’m co-chairing the events, but I’m trying to get a confirmation on the price before I go posting it all over the place. 
Yes, saturday is a test-n-tune, registration starts at 10 and first car off is around 11. Sunday will be a normal event.
You can’t camp on site – camping is at Sampson State Park which is across the street. It’s $16/night for a site. You can reserve it online but they charge you an extra 9 bucks, which I think is a waste of money that could otherwise be spent on beer . . . anyway . . .
Here are the good directions, since people keep getting lost en route: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=&saddr=Exit+42+%4042.952930,+-76.980830&daddr=Serven+Rd+%4042.900490,+-76.948460+to:6471+RT-96A,+Romulus,+NY+14541&mra=pr&sll=42.945994,-76.983604&sspn=0.057048,0.08111&ie=UTF8&ll=42.900113,-76.947727&spn=0.11418,0.16222&z=13&om=1

that’s what I’m planning to do (friday night). I’ve always reserved online in the past but I really see no reason to.

is it your mom?!?
Lol, no… Mama Silver still doesn’t want to compete. But she will be there with Grandma Silver.
Jim Perrin is co-driving as a thanks for letting me drive his car last week.
Not like I should talk, but… are you prepared?

You know, and I was all set not to go this weekend, but seeing Jim in a mid engine car just might be worth it. Not that I enjoy carnage or anything:)
Anyone want to let me mooch a ride?
You know, the cone carnage never even dawned on me. Well, you’ll see him blue taping up the bumper and other choice areas before we start 
From experience with the MR2 and Yeoh with his Boxter, it might not be a bad idea to get the rear bumper too. 
Ahaha, I was going to say that from the stories I’ve heard maybe I should tape up the roof too. Then it dawned on me that it’s a convertible. Then I thought about him knocking cones into the car, and I laughed out loud.
I may have to blue tape my helmet…
Nah, even Jim can’t recreate the cone mark on the roof, and I wouldn’t recomend trying.

Sure, some competition in ES would be nice. 
Cool, thanks Bret. I’m not 100% sure I’ll be there, I may get stuck working as a favor, but it looks like I may be able to get out of that. So if I can, I’ll see you there.
umm… i am planning to attend but I dunno about driving there sunday morning… who is going to camp out on sat night? let me know ASAP I would like to go with anyone.
Do you have to have your own tent? I dont’ have a tent, just a sleeping bag lol.
