It will be, I think. The Miami trip was worth about $1200. I'm assuming this trip will be around $2k.

Well, if I will owe the govt $500, I'm probably out. I can't imagine my wife would be happy with me paying $500 to go on a trip without her during her spring break.

Yep, I'm in the same boat, different ocean, (or would that be same F-RS, different lane)?

I can attend the second Driftng event here in Atlanta to see the car for a lot less than that, although I'm sure I'll be giving up a lot of potential freebies, and of course the opportunity to meet a subset of the First 86 in person this round.

Sydney did say when asked that she was not aware of any alternate plans for those that could not attend (someone mentioned that possibility in a different thread.

Sall, this thread started as a way of tracking the First 86 that would be attending because of the offer they received (see this thread) but I think it would be fun to meet others if time is available.

At this point, I'm a tentative "YES". Traveling from the East Coast though, this could be an expensive trip and the answer will depend on the APV (approximate prize value).
Have you received any info on the APV? I would like to attend this event and meet with other first 86, but if it is going to cost me $500 ($2000 (APV) x .25) I would rather spend that money on the car.
