for the out of towners,.. How should we go about finding you all once there? Anyone specific to ask for?Any # to call to find out where everyone is parked? We will probably bring the FC ( FD tires won't make the journey)
Unless a NC FD wants to lend me there rears for the weekend..
will rent$$
Hopefully the wifes trial settles before this weekend. That way we can relax and enjoy the sounds of rotors!! Can't wait. See you all Sat and Sund hopefully.

You can call me too. 678.779.4981.
It looks like we'll be able to park in a corral, but I'd prefer to watch the race from Spectator Hill, if possible. If y'all have GPS, we could always geek out and go with coordinates
If you go to maps.google.com, you can put in:
34° 8'54.30"N 83°48'57.03"W Vendor / Car Corral Area
34° 8'26.19"N 83°49'0.42"W Spectator Hill

I suggest we meet off of exit 129 at I-85N. The Zaxby's and Cracker Barrel are on the wrong side of the road to cross traffic and head up to road atlanta together. How about we meet in the small shopping center just past the McDonalds? I think there is a Dominos pizza there. I suggest we leave that parking area no later than 8:30AM. So get there earlier, get your gas, food from whichever place. That way everyone can park in the corral together. If you don't have tickets already you can get them at the gate. I would suggest getting inside and parked, then get parade or tour lap sign up.
I talked to Jim and he said he would try to let me know a time we can all stop by the MAZDA racecars and he would speak to all of us. Free HANS hat at the end of tour.

I will try to get an area for about 15 cars. I am heading out tomorrow in the early AM.
It would be more than helpful if you all showed up together so we can place you together.
See you guys there!!!

I would come seeing as how I'm only 80 miles from Road Atlanta right now, but I have to install my clutch that weekend... well, I don't have to. I just want to.
I have to work. I'll probably be at the OGTA meet though...this new Assistant Manager position isn't getting in the way of that!

Assistant Manager. Woohoo! Collin I was hoping an FC would show up, after all they are kind of ancient too. And now that you took Crit I might want to take a closer look at that red machine.
Sounds like a gathering! Who needs a new clutch?
Holly could you mapquest that?

Ray, you can do just the map, but the race course won't show up. At the top-right corner you can choose between "MAP", "TERRAIN" and "SATELLITE". Satellite will show you the track, map and terrain will show how to get there.

Departure for Road Atlanta is 8:30 from the parking lot area just past McDonalds on the right side or Hwy 53.
I am thinking of hitting Cracker Barrel for breakfast at 7:30. Anyone care to join me?
I assume it is OK to bring coolers into Road Atlanta with food and water. I noticed that track has a no alcohol brought in policy. What's the deal? Do they sell beer there or is this completely dry?

No Cracker Barrel for me. But I will check with Ian and Billy to see if that is what they want to do for breakfast, if they are showing up that early. I can't tie up some loose ends until the last minute.
At least we have the meet time and place down for Saturday.

Is anyone going to be there Sunday? I might go depending on whether or not I can change a clutch in a day... and drive 6 hours to RA (from where I'm installing the clutch).

We will be there sat and sun!:S The case is not going to trial this weekend so we can come.woot!!
What class(es) do the Mazda rotary cars run in? I am trying to figure out what time we need to leave to get there for that. ( The main and most important reason for us wanting to go) We are debating coming down friday night instead of waking up at 3 or 4 in the AM to get there early enough.
We will most likley be in the Viper Yellow S5 with a supra style wing on it. I have the #'s you all gave and will call those when we arrive. We can't wait to see all the badass cars in one venue..
Anyone know if the FURAI will be there? That would be too damn cool!
