Possible race in mind

Speed Demon Racing · Daniel Schmittou Former Member

Night race sounds good Lou. Never been to one. ( Except at Atl., and it just worked out that way about 3-4 years ago. Got a great shot of me, Gordon's car and Truck blower at Start/finish line going by slow.) How far from airport to track? Maybe some of us could double up on hotel rooms. I'm a smoker but respectful of others. Probably be tipsy as well, go figure. Maybe I could share a cab with someone from airport to hotel.?

Just a general idea of the price of a two night race package with Busch tickets...

Only looked at a couple sites so far, but racetour.com has a package that is priced

Per person.....

Package 1: May 13 � 15, 2005

2 Nights Hotel Accommodations at Sheraton Park South, Richmond, VA
Round-trip transportation from PA if needed
Ticket to Busch and NEXTEL Cup Series
Track Transfers to All Events Listed
Pre-Race Lunch Buffet in Hotel Restaurant
Lynch Tours & More Staff Onsite for Assistance

If you don't travel on their bus from PA, you'll get $20 off the price

Price Per Person: Single Double Triple Quad

$603 $490 $453 $434

So if you have 4 people staying the hotel room you'll each pay $414

Or here is another site: http://www.raceawayhospitality.com/

We'll have to look around at different companies, if anyone knows a good one, let me know. I've used Premier Sports Tours which are good, but they dont have that package up anymore.

Some people will not need hotels, those guys in Virginia. They can just get the tickets and meet us at the hotel we'd all be at. Some people may just want Cup tickets and not Busch ones. I personally would want both. I would want to stay Friday and Saturday nights, but probably come down on Thursday night and catch practice Friday afternoon. However, everyone may want to do something different.

We should be able to do a little better. Hotels.com for example. Maybe buy tickets from Richmond direct. Possibly a limo to and from track. I don't know, but I'll do some checking as well.

Maybe SDR will bring me!

excellent! Richmond is only a 4-5 hour drive as long as you can avoid that nightmare called Washington DC. That traffic is horrible! If you pick this race I'm in, I have 11 months to kiss my wife's ass so she'll let me go. Might have to remodel the bathroom.

If you can stash 20-25 bucks a week till then we could have a party down trip. Pretty much do and stay where we wanted.

Re: So who is the axe murderer in disguise that will be coming along?

Yeah, because don't you know people always join NASCAR leagues with the hopes of a possible race they can go to in the future where they can kill their fellow members at a public racetrack so they can get ahead in the standings! lol

I COULD really make a move.....hmmm

Ok, so Richmond seems to be the choice, haven't seen anyone say it's a bad track or race to go to.

Next we need a general idea of how many people want to go to both the Bush and cup race that weekend.

I personally like to see everything thats going on the track that weekend. Practice, qualifying, both races. Plus in between each event is a great time to walk around, visit vendors, possibly hunt down drivers for autographs, and just party.
