I think it would be nice to get people together for dinner either Friday or Saturday night. I am wondering though, would a dinner just be a get together of 993 people? I would think that there will be lots of other Rennlisters coming to Rennsport. I would think they might want to join in on the dinner which could swell the ranks to perhaps an unmanageable number for any particular restaurant. Thoughts anyone?

Having never been to track can I get some suggestions as to where to watch the action from? Best viewing spots?
Thanks
Rich

Everywhere....Too many places to go from the Grandstands to the Cork-Screw. It's a nice track and you can see most all of it.

Here are my favorite areas to watch from:

Turns 8 & 8A = the cork screw. On the hill you can also see turn 9. If you're lucky and early you can get a spot close to the track or under the trees. Which ever suits you.

Turns 1 & 2 Andretti hair pin. The hill there is small. But plenty of action and over-taking there. Also it's right next to the where the Porsche corral (usually) is.

Turn 11 in the grand stands. You can see the cars coming down the hill, braking hard and getting set up for the straight away/ finish line.

What no way how can you not bring the BEAST! Especially to the Reunion. You never know when this could happen again in your own backyard.

You guys really are THE BEST. IF you can do this through out the day, it would save me a TON of time to do it myself. A running total.

Whoever helps keep the total up to date and correct will get a BIG HUG from me at RR IV, that is, as long as you don't have a cold or the koodies or something.
I'm weird that way. If you sneeze, I walk the other way. I guess it's a phobia of some sort. Where is Dr. Phil when you need him?

Really the BEST.

THE BEST!!!!

OK, so how do I add my name, etc. to the list? I guess I'm technologically challenged!

Adding my name as well, probably solo but maybe my wife or my son will join me. Driving up in my 73 911S and doing the Parade lap. Staying at the Hyatt Monterey. I went to RRII in 2007 at Daytona; you are all in for quite a treat. Like drinking from a firehose!!! Cant wait.
