Road Atlanta March 19-20 - Dragon - 01-21-2005
I know a bunch of you have talked about going down to Road Atlanta for the NASA SE event the weekend of March 19th and 20th. I probably won't have a car that's track worthy at that point (still waiting on Cobetto to get the replacement E30 so I can get his), but I'll be heading down as well to see Ryan and spend the weekend at the track. What I'm gauging interest in, would be in heading down a couple of days earlier and hitting up Savannah for St. Patrick's Day. Anyone from down south knows that Savannah has one of the craziest St Paddy's Day parties. I've never been myself, however I have lots of friends that have, and they say it's something you gotta do.
My intention is to drive down a couple days early for the event, spend the 17th (St. Patrick's Day) in Savannah and then head to the track after that.
Ryan's already expressed interest, but I'm curious how many of you that are heading down would be interested in extending your weekend out a bit and experiencing the insanity that is St. Patrick's Day in Savannah.

Hurry up fool!

St. Patrick's day is my birthday
We're planning on coming down for the track weekend anyway, but could probably be persuaded to extend the trip a few days

I'd like to do the event, doubtful I can bail on school early tho :-(

Chan and I wanted to have everyone over for a party, perhaps Saturday night? The date is negotiable, but just thought I'd give ya'll a heads up on that. Also, we have a futon available for anyone who wants to crash here instead of at a hotel...of course, we are about 45 min from the track, but the offer stands.
hey, where's my harvey birdman avatar? grrr..
- .RJ - 01-21-2005
30 minutes from the RA exit to my door.
+bling!

if christina is okay after vir and i feel confident in her handling a road trip then i am there to hang out with rj, chan and jess.
- G.Irish - 01-23-2005
Well if the racekaa is not ready by then I could tow Christina, if it is I'll be down there with it to sort it out.
- Dragon - 01-24-2005
Maeng, Gerald, y'all thinking of extending out the weekend and doing St. Patrick's Day as well? Just need to get an idea on head count so I can make the proper hotel arrangements.
- BLINGMW - 01-24-2005
you guys should just party here, buckhead offers plenty to drink and a much higher likelyhood of being shot or getting in a fight.
- JohnC - 02-03-2005
Alright, I just registered for this event. We'll be coming down on Thursday afternoon - probably arriving for a late dinner (assuming the traffic isn't out of hand). Chan - can we possibly crash with you guys?
- BLINGMW - 02-03-2005
absolutely.
I'm PUMPED you guys are coming down here! :mrgreen: :thumbup:

Yay! I can't wait! 8)

Here's another question for you - how secure will my car be, on a trailer behind my truck? Is there enough room at your place to block it in effectively? I guess if the track is open for registration then it probably makes sense to drop it off first thing... We'll see I guess.
- .RJ - 02-03-2005
I dunno about chan's place but most of the apts around mine are vacant so there's plenty of parking - definately room for a truck/trailer for one night.
I've got a futon and plenty of floor space (have one air mattress as well).
- BLINGMW - 02-03-2005
our complex has been pretty secure, despite the almost always broken gates. There's often plenty of consecutive spots where you could get a trailer in.
- Maengelito - 02-04-2005
i am going skiing at the end of the month so i will wait til then to sign up for this event. if i sign up now, i will break my leg or something which will be totally shitty. rj or chan and jess, would i be imposing if crashed at one of your places for the weekend? also, since i've never driven road atlanta, i'm gonna need an instructor for atleast the first session just so i dont seem completely lost...
- BLINGMW - 02-04-2005
I think both RJ and we are looking forward to housing whoever is cool enough to make it down. 8)
I'll be getting instructed too, it's just as new to us! :oops:
- .RJ - 02-04-2005
Hey chan, you got any fireworks or other explosives?
