Re: Opinions and interest in a Vegas meet?
I'm glad to see so many willing to support a Vegas meet. Here's where I stand right now.
I'm waiting to get some info from Spring Mountain. They are looking to put on a Corvette Track Days this year, so hopefully we can get a date for that. Going at Corvette Track Days like we did in '06 will help keep costs down for that particular track. I've also reached out to racing operations at The Strip for drag racing. I'm hoping to have us get together with Vegas Vettes for their Drag Racing Series, but I need to see what Spring Mountain has going on, since there is interest in hitting that track. If the dates for Spring Mountain and the Vegas Vettes Drag Racing don't coincide, we'll look to have our own "class" during the ET Bracket Series at The Strip. I hope to know more in the coming days. In my mind, once I figure out the details for Spring Mountain, the rest should fall into place. When we get tentative dates together we can get some lodging figured out...there's a couple of hotels out here somewhere . Thanks.

Re: Opinions and interest in a Vegas meet?
Maybe a poll on the different dates? The >100deg days are not that much fun

Re: Opinions and interest in a Vegas meet?
Mid~late September is nice. Early enough that snow won't affect travel from the mountain regions and a separated from BG by 4 months so it's not too close together for those who can make both.

Re: Opinions and interest in a Vegas meet?
Here's an update on Vegas.
Spring Mountain is planning on holding a Corvette Track Days this year, but the catch is they don't know when. It's pretty cost prohibitive to rent the track for a day, unless we know we're going to have a really good turnout. Drag Racing is pretty easy, cost to run would be $40.00 and we can run in conjunction with the Vegas Vette Club, or we can run in our own segment during one of the ET Bracket Series Nights. There are 12 ET Bracket races through the year, so we could fit in at anyone of them. I know there's an interest in doing Spring Mountain; however, what kind of deal breaker would it be if we didn't do Spring Mountain?

Re: Opinions and interest in a Vegas meet?
As far as Spring Mtn goes, I want to be all in, not a ride and follow pseudo track event...I guess I'm spoiled from having track access from a former member. I would be willing to shell out a decent cover charge for the road course, but then again $40 for drag racing is kind of hard to argue against.
