Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations Posted by: Jim Stabe Date: April 24, 2014 01:25PM I won't be making it either for a number of reasons: birth of a grandson, numerous delays on the car, bathroom renovation at daughter's house... Too bad since this is probably the closest the meet has been held to San Diego.

Why not host/organize one yourself in or near San Diego? There is no reason why there can't be a British V8 meet east and a British V8 meet west each year. Sadly, it looks like I won't make this one either.

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations Posted by: 74ls1tr6 Date: April 24, 2014 04:54PM I'm sorry to hear of the last three posts, of great BV8 people not being able to make the meet! We will try to take many photos and videos to post for those that don't make the meet.

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations Posted by: Spitfire 350 Date: April 24, 2014 07:05PM Sorry to hear about the people not able to make it to the meet. I know they did not come to this decision easily. You will be missed. On the positive side; the whole McConnell clan will be in attendance this year. We decide to take a family vacation that includes this year’s BV8 meet. Can't wait to see everyone.

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations Posted by: kstevusa Date: May 01, 2014 03:24PM hey gang, my usual co-pilot had to cancel, but "The Captain", my wife will attend with me. Retirement has freed her to travel some and she agreed to fly out also. Just checked and a "Spirits" store down street from hotel and it carries GD. I'm impressed :-) We'll do a trial run to Townsend Tn. next week-end for see how we fare. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 05/03/2014 12:56PM by kstevusa.

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations Posted by: Spitfire 350 Date: May 02, 2014 11:02AM Kelly, Sounds like "The Captain" knows how to run a happy ship. I'm looking forward to meeting her. Are you renting a Mustang convertible for your Colorado car?

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations Posted by: 74ls1tr6 Date: May 02, 2014 11:40PM Hey Phil, Is your family all coming to the meet still? My Twin sons put in their leave orders in the AF, so they can come with us this meet. Should be a great time for all.

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations Posted by: Spitfire 350 Date: May 03, 2014 08:48AM Calvin, Yes, there will be 5 of us. Mary, Liz, Sam, and Sean (Sam's boyfriend) are flying out. We should be there Saturday the 19th.

Re: Britsh V8 2014 - Hotel Reservations - Last Call Posted by: lars49 Date: June 16, 2014 11:21AM The last day to lock-in the hotel rate is this Friday, June20. For those of you that are still on the fence as to whether you are able to make it to this year's meeting, may I make a suggestion. You can make a reservation on-line and lock in the the rate, and if you are not able to make it, you can cancel the reservation on-line up to 24 hours before your arrival date and get a refund.
