Okay can some please post the actual address of where the meet is. I need to get onto yahoo map's and figure out exactly how I am going to get there where I am staying ect.ect. Is it going to be all weekend?? fri.sat.sun? or just sat. sun. I could leave fri....get there fri night crash and be up to help everyone with the early morning sat stuff. I am excited. I hope to have a few more mod's by then. I will bring the camcorder ......and possibly a passenger to help flim. Oh and even though it's going to be a long trip I have absolutely no problem kicking up some dough to help with the costs.

I'm not going to post the address just yet, But here is something to put in your trip computers:

725 E Main St Lebanon, OH 45036

This is the address of a Knights Inn less than 2 miles from the spot. As I talk to the co-hosts, we'll name a hotel and book some rooms where we can all overnight if not camping. The actual location is about 1 mile off I-71 near the route 123 exit.

John, the official event is Sat-Sun. Fish may welcome you early, I don't know.. it's up to them. I'm stuck in CLE Friday eve for a wedding.

Wowzers - another 5 hours from our place in PA!
Who woulda thunk it!
That's still not bad though; 751 miles each way is pretty close to my original estimate of 800.

Fish.. Mapquest puts 4 or 5 hotels within a couple miles of your place. Are they all dumps? I remember you said good lodging was 10 miles away. We'll need to pick a hotel, the closer the better and book a block of rooms. Something in the caliber of a Days Inn or Red Roof. (No Joe's Motel) What do you recommend?

um... well good hotels are one exit away, as kings island is one exit away, but remember since this is 4th of july weekend it may be harder to book these hotels.. so do it now ! as for around lebanon.. most the hotels in lebanon are going to be bungalow type, so dont expect to much, basically "joe's motel". except for knights inn.. i didnt even know there was a knights inn on main street.

Lets do this.. go check out the Knights Inn.. It might be OK cause it's like a motor lodge, everyone parks at their front door..and it looks like it's a mile or two away. If it is half decent I'll block 10 or 15 rooms..

I'm in for a Knights Inn room for Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. I prefer a King Bed.

Most generous king 'O the horsepower ranch.. It's been a while since I've done the Knights Inn.. are they acceptable to a guy who doesn't expect a whole lot? I know they give a discount to AAA..which I 'm a member.

I thought we were coming for the cars and the people that love them. As long as the room is clean, it serves the purpose.

Just my .02

Heya Bill, glad to see you are going to join us again. It is that "as long as the room is clean" part that worries me. If I book a bunch of rooms, sight unseen, and they are trashy.. well, it reflects poorly on the event, ya know?

How are you enjoying the 968? (probably not much this time of year)
