Phil keep the Triumph Parking Spots open..Hope your wife can make it this year. Also looking forward to seeing Dan Masters in the flesh with his awesome car with my note pad in hand. Unfortunately we will not have the MGB GT done. Brenda wishes but not going to happen this year. Looking forward to seeing Jim Stable with his wide body MG Roadster. This will be a memorable meet.

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations
There have been about 40-45 cars & 60 or so people at the ones I've made. While I'm sure it makes the event planner nervous & makes their job harder, it's not uncommon for a lot of folks to register in the last 2-4 weeks.
I have made my hotel reservation now. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone! Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 01/07/2014 05:17PM by rficalora. |

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations
20 reservations this far out is pretty encouraging. Based on my experience, motel reservations and event registrations flood in at the last minute.

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations
Larry, as usual, I am the one who does not seem to "get it" the first time around....could you please clarify for me what the actual dates are for the event? I know we start on Sunday the 20th....but am confused on the Thursday the 24th date...is the 24th an activity day, or do we depart on the 24th...
