Decisions,Decisions These promoters make me have to change my mind 100 different times before I know what race I want to attend but Florida in Febuary sounds really good.

Cant wait! No matter what the changes, I'm not watching the racing on the enternet from home this year. I want to be on the track.....

RCThunder

Thanks everyone. We hope by being able to announce the dates and location this early will make even more racers be able to attend. The last few years I could not get anything final until late September/October and I am sure that makes it hard to prepare and get the family in full support!

Thank you everyone! WOW just got home and on-line! Great to see the discussions.....

So far most all the questions will be answered with very satisfactory answers! Everything will be spelled out in the next couple weeks. I am very happy and excited to say the least. Talked a little about it tonight on racetalklive.com. If you missed it they will archive the show.

The best thing at this point is being able to advertise the event in June rather than October the past few years. Racers have time to plan and so do we!

I will spill the beans and give a tease - rates are a little less and there is ton to do, eat, and see within walkin' distance. It's I-DRIVE without the conjestion and a little more modern. Plus you can see the TREE of LIFE, fireworks, Space Mountain, and more! Some general trackside pittting this year and also in your room without the big walk. TV Network too!

Julie and I were at Talladega back in April and saw Carl Edwards in the infield and the 1st thing he said when he saw us was 'how was the Snowbird's this year sorry I missed it'. That is awesome! The racing world knows about our race!! Check out the link on our Snowbird page with the hits we got from the live webcam this year... over 4000.... awesome!!!!!!!! We are excited about 2008 and hope you are too!

Tree of Life -- Animal Kingdom
Fireworks -- Every Park
Space Mountain -- Magic Kingdom

All this is DISNEY.

Hmmmm, me and the wife have 4 timeshares there. Can't wait to get the dates. Might just have to get a rug-car if B/L Lipos have a class.

Hey Mike,

Will there be actual "Pit Rooms" available, or do we need to reserve 2 rooms and convert one?

RCThunder
06-14-2007, 10:03 AM
No 'pit rooms'. Pitting in the rooms is ok as long they aren't detroyed... I am sure this won't happen though. We do have more room for pitting trackside. Details on all this to come.

Overall this should really work out awesome.

Hey Mike are Mains going to be delayed because of a parade at all?! I'm putting my money on Dave Butts getting hired to be the new Goofy in the parade too! :freak:

RCThunder
06-14-2007, 11:51 AM
HAHA Butts is now on the Snowbird staff but I can't control him he is a maniac!!!

J/K :p

Parade sounds cool. Rolling starts? Pace car? :rolleyes:

Guess the rumor of the racing being at Gatorland can be put to rest now. Wasn't looking forward to turn-marshaling there anyhow.

Now that would have been interesting.

All racers are required to have a predatory background check as there will be children within 1500 feet.
