ALRIGHT GUYS-WE ARE ONE WEEKEND AWAY FROM THE NATIONAL MEET!!!!

Here is the plan for Friday Night and BBQ at Oklahoma Joe's.....

We will meet at the host hotel (Clarion Hotel (at 7000 West 108th Street Overland Park, KS 66211) at 5pm on Friday night in the parking lot. Since all the people that are coming early for the meet will be at the hotel, it's the logical place to meet. We will all caravan over to the Oklahoma Joe's in Olathe, KS after that. If we don't leave early, we will be waiting in line to get food at the restaurant.


Here is the plan for Saturday Night's Cruise and Dinner at the Turn 2 lounge.

We will all meet at the Berbiglia Liqour Store directly across the street from Jay Wolfe Acura at 6pm. We will then caravan (not race) to the Hollywood Casino/Turn 2 Lounge. Once we park in the parking garage, we will go over to the restaurant/lounge for dinner. You can stay afterwards for drinks and the band, which will be playing later that night!



Don't forget-if you haven't registered yet for the meet, please go to my first posting and click on the link to get registered for the meet.





--SATURDAY NIGHT-JUNE 9TH--

This is the view that you will be looking at if you join us for our Saturday Night Caravan and Dinner......





This is the view from "TURN 2" at the Hollywood Casino. Turn 2 is an upscale restaurant and sports bar that looks over the Kansas Speedway!

My wife and I had dinner there, just to check out the place. The food is great, the portions are HUGE and the view overlooks the new Kansas Speedway! Plus, they have a band later that night.


We will meet at 6pm on Saturday, June 9th, across the street from Jay Wolfe Acura. We will then car caravan to the Hollywood Casino (by the Kansas Speedway). After we park the cars, you can take some pictures and then we'll have dinner at Turn 2 (everyone pays for their own meals/drinks). After dinner, you can stay at Turn 2, drink and dance or go into the Hollywood Casino. But the view of the Kansas Speedway is awesome-the restaurant is literally on Turn 2 of the track!

www.hollywoodcasinokansas.com

NOTE: I actually tried to get our group access to run your car on the actual Kansas Speedway, but they are literally tearing up the entire track and laying new concrete during the time we are having our National Meet.


I need a head count for this event, so I'll start things off here. Please sign up for this event here. But don't forget, I still need you to sign up on Post #359!





--SUNDAY, JUNE 10th--

Meet Time: 11 AM

__________________________________________________ ______________



Where to stay while in Kansas City:

--Our host hotel is the same as last year! Once again, the Clarion Hotel (at 7000 West 108th Street Overland Park, KS 66211 - (913) 383-2550. (The hotel is approximately 7 minutes away from the dealership). http://kansas.city.hotelguide.net/data/h100071.htm

(NOTE: when you click on this link, it will say that the Hotel is closed-THAT IS NOT RIGHT, THE HOTEL IS OPEN NOW AS A PLAZA HOTEL. They will be changing to a Clarion Hotel sometime soon.

Our rate for this National Acura event is $59 per night. When making your reservation, tell them you are with AcuraZine and Jay Wolfe Acura, which should get you that rate. I spoke with Mac, who is the owner of the hotel-ask for him if you run into any problems.

REGISTRATION--WE WOULD LIKE EVERYONE TO USE THIS LINK TO REGISTER.

I wish it were that easy. Not that my wife wouldn't let me go if it were in Cali, just that coordinating a meet isn't easy and I've never done something of this magnitude before, but there is a first for everything.

1800+ miles for me, 1 day 4 hours. I'm sure I could shave a few hours off though.

I'd love to be one that shows up in a new NSX.

In an ideal world... that would be great... but the coordination that would have to go into 5 different regions would be way too much. One meet in the middle of the country is the next best thing...

Oh, and new NSX is 3 years away from production (as of now)... so maybe that can happen at the 2015/2016 meet!!

I drive out last year with just my girlfriend sitting shotty so having a caravan isn't really needed! It would make it more fun but it's really not a bad drive. I went 1053 miles in one day and it wasn't half as bad as I thought it would be.

Haven't been able to find many postive things about moving to the midwest except the first being when I bought my TL from Cali, shipping was much cheaper/half price than it would have been to the northeast where I came from.

Now this meet makes it the second positive thing

If I'm still here by June I'll be there
