OP, where in Ohio are you located if you don't mind me asking? If you go then I might as well as look into it if the drive isn't crazy long.

Edit: Google maps says it's almost a 9 hour drive...I'll probably pass lol.

Question for the masses somewhat on this subject: If your car is an import company, but built in the USA, do you go to this event? Just curious.

FTR, Subaru is built in Japan.

Looool, good question, my car was built in my state I'm pretty sure lmao. I suppose since the brand of the car is not American you should be allowed to go. The meet is in July, I hope to be driving a BMW by then... German ftw.

I'll probably show up to this. Car shows around the Raleigh area are pretty weak so this will be worth the drive. Plus I'm looking forward to driving through the mountains to get there

I live about 10 miles south of columbus, friday morning (the day we leave for import alliance) me and group of people from ohiohondas.com are meeting up in grove city, your more than welcome to join our caravan of cars. last year our group was like 10 cars, and this year im expecting more cars in our group. if you are going, you might want to book a hotel, cause the hotel i booked is now all filled up lol

07TLTYPESex

you ever gone to "tail of the dragon" or "dragons tail"? or whatever its called... i think its in north carolina ?

CLtotheTL32

Nah I've never been to the Tail of the Dragon. I've always wanted to, but have never gotten around to it.

Alee:)

have you guys considered reserving an area for the acurazine forum?

OLD_HATCH

it was sort of unorganized, so i doubt that woulb b doable.


there was a good turnout and if funds allow I'll go again.

Alee:)

Yeah, looks like most of you guys have quite a drive. I usually host a bbq after IA but like you said, if funds allow, I'll do it this year!

Blazin Si

I've always wanted to go and this year I think I'll make the trip.

If you pass through Charlotte on your way there, let me know. I'd like to find some other Acura's to cruise out there with. Maybe even do a run through the Dragon.

That would be awesome! Mapquest is taking me northwest into VA for about 30 miles and then headed southwest the whole way into Nashville. It says it will be about 8 and a half hours from my doorstep here in the Raleigh area to the racetrack. Do you know if going through Charlotte would be quicker?

NAiL05

Hmm I went in 08 but that was when I was up in IL for school. Might have to make the trek again. Sunburn was worth all the fun.

07TLTYPESex

Getting sunburnt is TOTALLY worth it, last year me and my buddies packed a canopy and cooler, and it helped out ALOT!

07TLTYPESex

anyone from ohio planning on goin? if u want to meet up and drive down together let me know

OLD_HATCH

lol

I wore a big straw hat and didn't have to worry about the sun.

subinf

Long drive for me

Yess count me in as of right now, the BMW was an epic of fail so I'm just going to keep my RSX and by July it should be looking car show worthy lol.

07TLTYPESex

sweet deal, ill post up the information for u as to when and where were meeting the day we leave..

Blazin Si

It looks like it's a more direct route for you, but google maps is showing that it's faster to go through VA. If it doesn't work out, we can maybe get a spot out there for Azine. I'll see if any of the Charlotte members are going to the event.

Damn dude I totally forgot about this, I just read through the thread and I realized I completely fail at life and never do anything I plan...WTF?! lmao. I'll know by July 1st or so if I can make it or not.

07TLTYPESex

18 days till i depart for import alliance! anyone else for sure going??

Blazin Si

I booked a room a few months ago and I'm 75% sure I'll be there.

07TLTYPESex

where did u book ur hotel? we may be close to eachother

Blazin Si

It's a Holiday Inn that's about 15 miles from the speedway.

07TLTYPESex

is it on south cumberland street? if so im literally right down the road from u, anyone else here whose booked a room, please inform where ur stayin and maybe we could get together for something.. im stayin at the econo lodge o n south cumberland street in lebanon, tennessee

CCColtsicehockey

I will be heading to this. Was just looking at hotels last night. Trying to decide if I am heading out Thursday night or Friday morning. Thinking Thursday cause it would give me a day to do things around Nashville.

Blazin Si

Yeah, same street. We'll be there Fri evening and will check out Sun morning.

I saw on H-T that the La Quinta is where all the wild partying takes place. So stay away from there if you enjoy a good nights sleep and want to avoid harassment from the police.
