Hyperfest 2016

[Jake]

Got a call from Laura yesterday to figure out my logistics, because I am a unique and special snowflake.

Going to be driving Friday (no working!) in Open Practice, then TT Saturday/Sunday while helping pace races and typical grid/announcement shenanigans. Very excited to be back on the NASA side for Hyperfest. Was fun being a "green shirt" and helping with Hyperfest proper in years past, but now that I have the car where I want it and am trying to be competitive/drive better, I want the maximum seat time.

Thinking I'll spend all Friday on street tires to practice and knock time down, then throw the Hoohoos on for timed sessions the rest of the weekend. Hopefully I can find someone to ride shotgun on Friday for a bit o' coaching.

I'll be arriving Thursday around 6 PM. When is everyone else getting there?

I plan to wake up super early Saturday morning and drive down. Hope to be there by 10am.

Laura emailed me a few days ago asking about DE2 solo. Just waiting on her to respond to get more info about why 2 solo and working then I'll know

Decided to get a post together with all of our info and to hopefully coordinate some food and drinks. Feel free to correct details of who's doing what if I got it wrong. Tried to compile between FB message and the forums.

Food and Drink Coordination
Looks like we have quite the crew. Those of us who are working will have lunches provided all days and dinner/beer provided on Saturday. If you are not working, you don't get fed on Saturday - this is different from normal NASA weekends. Food trucks/carts will be on site Saturday on the Hyperfest side, and the VIR food shack will also be open.

There's been banter about grilling as well. Who's in for that?

I have that massive coffee pot and will plan to bring it based on several requests. Bring travel mugs (or regular mugs) unless you want to drink out of crappy disposable coffee cups.

Tell me what you want to bring/share and I will update below. We can use my trailer as "home base" - I will have an EZ-up and a few camp chairs. Don't want to volunteer DJ and Jess as "home base part deux" until one/both of them say yes for sure, but I suspect we will be paddocked next to each other per usual and the party will spill between the trailers.

I will bring beer for sure. Can bring a food item, but I would prefer to just throw dollars at someone else who brings food.

Edit: I can bring a non-perishable food item as I do not have a cooler and don't feel like buying one.

[rherold9]

I shall bring 24 pack of beer. Can bring food as well but have no cooler.

Also, Laura has changed her mind about me working. She will only need me for small amounts of time on Saturday or Sunday

If we're coming down, I can probably grab a few cases of craft stuff if people will drink it. Things such as blue Mountain kolsch or various stone beers. Maybe some ballast point.

Ballast point Pineapple. I wanna try it.

[Senor_Taylor]

I'll bring the MM track grill and propane. Someone want to go in with me on some burgers and stuff?

Also, who is leaving from Harrisonburg? I'd like to drive with someone.

As long as it's not insanely fast. Taylor no like to speed. You can throw some stuff in my truck if you want.

[Jake]

Matt, beer from whoever would be amazing.

I think food-wise, we'll want burgers, hot dogs, buns for both, condiments/toppings (cheese, lettuce, tomato, ketchup, mustard), and a few sides - potato salad and baked beans? I can bring a pot to use on the grill to warm those up.

[rherold9]

I shall bring some side dish since no cooler.

How much is hyperfest? I've never been without working. Isn't it like $25 or something?

[Maengelito]

I'm in for instructing both days and I'll probably bring some decent beer and perhaps something else for the grill. Just an FYI for people that don't know what to bring, we can always use more water.

[rherold9]

we can always use more water.

That's what beer is for

[Kaan]

I'm out

money and time... running out of both. I really wanted to get back to VIR but i'll likely be at dominion (not summit) in june. I might work summit in june or just come out to visit.

[rherold9]

Lol at the entry list for DE3. Going to be a lot of point bys given :lol:

Edit: wow there are a lot of drivers. Should be some interesting traffic in all groups.
