FYI Mopars At The Strip

[ChgrSteve67]

Just a bunch of trouble makers.   

I think I have the right impression.   

I'm trying to convince my wife otherwise.

(She has me on a short leash)

Now I slowly start to understand why you wrote this 

Too bad I don't have a Mopar in Vegas like last year. Maybe with some extra $ I can bring home some nice parts.
We'll see

[skip68]

Chrissy, are you flying to San Fran and riding down with Dan or flying to Vegas ?     Better book soon for low rates. 

[CB]

I'd love to fly to San Fran! Cruising down with Dan, maybe join with others on the way?
As long as there is Carls Jr.

About every third corner has one.

i hope to be able to find you guys this time (chuck never answered his cell last time.......................) , maybe see ya before then though, even if i don't have Mary by then i'll drive one of the furds i own, just let me know if you want me to park it down the block or something....................

for those that want something a little cheaper than the main Strip there is a new locals hotel about 5 mins from the track called Aliante Station, on the 215 beltway on the north side of town

[skip68]

We WILL be in touch with you this year Robert.   fo sho........

[RECHRGD]

There's a slight chance the Al Merkel (member here but rarely posts) and I may do a road trip down there for the festivities.  It's a long haul in the Chargers and the weather can be pretty iffy that time of year.  BUT, Chuck you still owe me a scotch for that gauge I sent you and that may be the only way I can get you to pay up!  Bob

[skip68]

Bob, if you show up I'll get you a bottle.   

[A383Wing]

Bob, if you show up I'll get you a bottle.   

He will probably just get the "empty" bottle

looking forward to meeting you folks. Been going to MATS for the last 5 years and never met anyone from the site. Thats gotta change this year.

[ChgrSteve67]

Wife has said I can go. 
I will talk with my Brother in law this weekend to see if he wants to ride along.

The Mopars at the strip web site does not look like it has been updated for the 2010 event yet other than the announcement of the date.

When is a good time to book a room and where is everyone staying?
Since I have a trailer I will need a place that will accommodate for trailers and not be out of sight.
Also a fairly inexpensive room is also prefered since I don't plan on spending much time in it.

Hey Steve, NOW is the time to get a room. I don't know where to tell you to try as they book up quickly. I know many people trailer in their cars and stay in their trailers right at the track. Ron and I stay at the VEGASMIKE SLEEP EASY, but I know it's booked up...    Maybe bring an air mattress and stay in the trailer. I think I heard something about us staying in one at the track this year as well... Bring blankets if you're thinking about camping there. It gets a bit chilly once the sun goes down there in March...

Glad to hear it! As far as where to stay, I've heard Chuck and Mike are planning accommodations out at the MATS site (motorhomes?). That would be a unique experience. I can always bring a tent and my very warm sleeping bag (and propane heater).

So Chuck, Mike, what are your plans for MATS? We foureners (sic) need to make travel accommodations pretty quickly here.

Dan

[skip68]

We are working on it ASAP.      We have alot to do in the next several months to pull this off so it will be a real good time.   

[69bronzeT5]

Heads up guys, I'm gonna try my best to bring a guitar so if anybody wants to bring theirs too so we can jam...feel free!

[Dans 68]

You do mean "acoustic" guitar, right?   

Dan

[Steve P.]

The only TUNES that are ever heard at the track are accompanied by FUMES.

Dan

I don't have a good working acoustic. I was thinking along the lines of bringing my Jackson Flying V and a little pocket Marshall amp that isn't very loud. That way if somebody decides to bring an acoustic, I can play without being drowned out

So....anybody want to take me down the track during a run?

[A383Wing]
