I'm going to be bold here - anyone in Montreal willing to host a Rennlister and his wife for the weekend?
We're virtually harmless, mellow and I have a sense of humor that I've spent a lot of money trying to develop. Ask Ilko how well behaved we can be... (Ilko, nudge-nudge)

I would be willing to offer $$ for the accommodations - after looking at the hotel availability and costs I gacked...

Thanks for the invite. I saw this and spoke to the wifey and guess what, we are probably coming up. Long drive from southern Ohio but what the heck. Look forward to meeting all. Now just gotta try to get some tickets!

Not sure what your budget is, but I am aware of one good hotel that has rooms for less than $200 a night. And it's nice. And super convenient.

PM me if interested.

Thanks for the effort. I'm in the process of pursuing a few possibilities. One of of which asking Michael Schumacher if I could stay in his hotel suite. I figured it must have an extra room nobody is staying in it...

I just booked a biz trip to Ottawa on the 9th and 10th.
If i can get tickets, even general admin, and a place to stay for a few nights, i'm headed over.

Matt, Ilko, would either of you, (or anyone familiar with the city / venue be willing to communicate with me via email or phone to give me a heads up on what to expect?) Please PM me your eamil addy if so.

THANKS!
i'm stoked at the chance to hear one of these races in person.

The sounds are truly amazing in person, even more so when they had traction control in the early 2000's/late 90's. Backfire on an F1 car really pounds your chest up close.

Hi everyone, back to the original post topic, looks like we have a nice group shaping up for Saturday evening.

If you are interested in joining us to say hello, have a few pints and meet some fellow enthusiasts, you'd be most welcome.

Please PM your name and email address and let me know how many guests you will be bringing with you. Just want to make sure we have enough food and drinks!

I will be sending out detailed directions next week.

Best,

Matt
