Who all is going down to the show this year?

I plan on doing the show on Sunday and the track day on Monday (assuming we can keep it alive).

Yeah sorry we can't do it outside of the shop, they are really cracking down on shit right now. I have to pay to work on my own car now. Hurry up and get it in, we can have it done in 2 days if we are just doing a straight trans swap, no clutch.

OK, who all is going down? (from the NWC, in case you didn't know what forum this is. smile.gif )

Looks like 4 people right now. I believe Danny has a room in Davis already. I have a room down there also, but it isn't in Davis. I might switch and forgo the discount. $60 to save 20 minutes? Maybe not. smile.gif

I will book two rooms for Willows and Ashland. Ashland is on me. smile.gif

I got a room at Willows also, I'll have to dig through my email to find out where. I think I went with the cheapest spot since I went with more $$ to be close to the park in Davis. I'm excited for Ashland though!!

George, I just mailed in $200 this morning to CJ. Please p.m. with your hotel's info, so I can reserve a room and the what not. Also I'm assuming there is some kind of registration for the Volvo car show on Sunday, and maybe an entrance fee. Let me know what I need to do.

Thanks
Chris

$10 fee for the show, when you show up. No registration.

I figured since there were just the 4 of us, we would split the rooms 2 to a room. If you want to do it different, let me know.

Also, I can use my employee discount to get the rooms for about 1/3 the normal price. smile.gif I like to as much discount as I can because I figure gas prices will be over $3 a gallon again before we head down.

Danny, I assume you are at the Pheasant Inn again in Willows? I will get a room there also.

Ok, booked a room in Willows for Sunday night. $39 at the Holiday Inn Express! laugh.gif

I will contact the GM in Ashland and get 2 rooms. Shouldn't be a problem.

Looks like I can. I will confirm it tomorrow. The only drawback is I can't specific the room/bed type, they have it as "allocated upon room arrival based on availablity". Must be an IHG thing, but I can't see them being filled on that day so it shouldn't be a problem.

This hotel will be better than the Motel 6, and it has breakfast.
