Hey guys,

We were talking about an Ohio meet and some of us decided a good place for a meet is Cedar Point!

We can do a Friday and Saturday thing.

Friday we can race at Norwalk about 30 minutes from Cedar Point.

Saturday we can have a car show in the Cedar Point Lot and then go inside and have fun all day! http://cedarpoint.com/

We have yet to call the track, but we are hoping to make it happened sometimes before the end of August.

Who can make it?

 

I will be calling the track tomorrow and see what date for Fridays in August they have open for us and then if we have 25 or more people we can get a group discount at Cedar Point. Not sure what it is but I can also contact the park tomorrow. Parking at Cedar Point is $9.00 and a regular funday admission is $44.95. I will get the costs of Norwalk. Also Pepsi product cans save you $10 on admission to Cedar Point and if you're a AAA member you obviously can get a discounted admission there as well. Also at the Huron Discount Drug Mart (where I work) and probably others in the area you can buy Cedar Point discounted tickets and save $10 off a full day admission as well. Well I'll have more info tomorrow and I hope to see everyone there considering I couldn't make it to the bash.

i'm up for it, as long as i can have a date very soon. since i'm the boss i can't just take off from work on a weekend, i have to plan for it atleast 2 weeks in advance

 

sweet ill b there

 

uh, when Jonel??

 

Ok everyone I just got off the phone with Jonel. I called the track and the projected itinerary is as follows:

Friday August 12: 6-11p.m. Meet at the Norwalk Raceway. Now while on the phone with the track they told me that this will be a "street warrior night" NOT a "test and tune" night. This means there will be no times just first one down wins.

Saturday August 13: Meet at Cedar Point. Park opens at 10:00a.m. and the minimum number actually needed for a group discount at CP is 15 and we'll save about $13 on admission. We will make an effort to try to park together so a meeting time and place (possibly somewhere outside of the park, and everyone shows up at the same time) and we want to park together at the park. Depending on how many there are that show up the best spot would probably be in the marina parking lot which is off to the far left of the peninsula. I think this would be the best area to park because guests don not park there, therefore it would be away from everyone.
If anyone has any comments or questions please let us know. Hope to see you all there!

Tom

 

I am actually planning to be in the area in my SS just as coincidence. I looked saw this link and couldnt beleive it. Im gonna be there for sure ill keep checking this post and see you guys there.

 

Ok. Friday and Saturday the 12th and 13th work well.
Tom you are in charge since you live there. Please post the exact prices for the track and CP admission. We are going to have a car show Saturday in the CP lot..

Hope to see some people form out of state as well! It’s Cedar Point!

But no hotel I recommend camping. Much cheaper and alot more fun. Beer, fire, smores, beer need I say more. I wont be there for the track runs but I will be at CP. Im bringing a big crew with me. None of them are into cars but we drink and play cards. Hopefully Ill see everybody there.

my car won't touch the track, but i'm up for it


how much are hotels running up there?
<edit> you should post this in the general info forum cause not everyone scrolls all the way down here to read this category

 

should also get a list of who would want to get a room somewhere so we can get a group discount... i would camp, but i need my shower in the morning lol

 

damnit... I'll be up there on the 29th, and I have to go to D.C. on the 8th...

 

im only like an hour or 2 away from there so i have no excuse lets all get plastered in the parking lot a puke off the rides

 

Rule #1: You never want to step up and get a discount for a group at a hotel. They will hold you responsible for the damage done to any or all of the rooms used by the group. Pay the regular price. A $10 discount is not worth it.

 

C'mon guys let's get the list goin! Jonel I agree this should be moved to a more visible area. I thought you said you were going to put a link to it on the homepage???

Tom

 

Yup thats right, we learned from our mistakes from putting on the Bashes for the last several years. But it is always nice to pick out somewhere everyone could stay.

 

that would be pimp make sure to post like a lot a head ( or as mutch as possible) cuz i wanna go but soccer conditiong starts in aug. that would be pimp i should ha ve my pullies on by then. want wait

I'll try to make it but I usually have hockey on the weekends...but yah if I can make then obviously I'll be there...good luck with finding more people

 

Only 4 so far? It's CP guys, get out there You don't have to come both days. Just come Sat if you can

 

Definately interested, just not sure if i'd be able to make it. Buying a new car and then immediately missing half a month of work isnt too great for your financial situation.

 

are we going to say there needs to be a minimum of people before we go through with this? like 10 or so?


also for putting the link on the main page, many people like myself link directly to the forums in their bookmarks, i think the only time i've ever seen the mainpage was when i orignally signed up...

 

I'm down for Norwalk. But am up in the air for Cedar Point.

 

if we can't get more people to commit before monday (25th) i am going to have to cancel my plans for going there. it's not that i don't love you guys, but i can't drive a 3 hour (one-way) trip to do a meet with 3 people

 

so whats going on are we gonna go or what?
