EDIT: Weekend has been chosen: Aug 11-12.
A couple hotel options:
2 guys per room with two doubles = $60 + fees
4 guys per room with two queens = $70 + fees
I'll start a new thread with an agenda soon... I'm waiting to hear back from Mt Equinox about the schedule for the auto race. Depending on that, perhaps we can start with a brunch in Brattleboro on Saturday and then check out the auto race at Equinox on the way to Rutland.
Who's in?
----------------------------------------------------------------
Epic drive #1 was, well, epic. Epic drive #2 could take it a step further with two days of VT mountain passes. The routes I'm plotting will put the previous run to shame. Possible agenda:
Sat
- Meet in Brattleboro
- Lunch/drivers meeting
- Drive to Mt Equinox, Rutland, hotel
- Dinner
- Maybe short drive/movie
Sun
- Breakfast/drivers meeting
- Drive to Texas Falls
- More drive!
- Mid-late afternoon meal (maybe in Lebanon, NH)
I'm wondering how many would be interested and what August weekend(s) would be good. Alternatively, we could do it during Fall Foliage, though traffic would be heavier and hotels charge more ($55-70 for a double in August, twice that in October).
I've been on jaw-dropping Miata runs that were so big that we split into slow, medium, and fast groups. I don't expect anywhere near that sort of turn-out for an FT86 run, but depending on how many go we might be able to get a group rate at the hotel.
Note: I'm going out of town for a couple weeks with limited Internet access... I'll check this thread when I return.
