Bringing this back to the front page.

How is the weekend of June 10th and 11th sound to people? If dates are set then, we need to get firm commitments from people who are going and I will reach out to locals to plan out the driving and events.

Not to question the little progress we have made so far but are there any existing DE track days would could schedule this around? Or are you thinking the exotic drive route? The later might be a lot easier to pull off.

I am thinking scenic drive day 1, followed by drinks, entertainment on the strip. Track rental for a few hours or exotic day 2.

Once date and participants are finalized, the itinerary will be easy to plan out.

Ok, I have the spreadsheet going for the attendees. 10 confirmed attendees gets this set in stone.

As far as hotels go options are: Gold Coast Hotel + Casino, Stratosphere, Monte Carlo, or Treasury Island.

Hard Rock is reasonably fun/inexpensive.

Odds are we won't find one place everyone likes and can afford, so maybe focus on the events?

DTM & Tony, is this a commitment to attend?

This is not serious thread, where 996 section will be ambition and not rubbish.

Although I don't have a 996 right this moment, I am in as well. Early June the weather won't be unbearable to be out in, just a bit hot.

As as far as location, why not stay off the strip at Green Valley Ranch or the M? We can always cruise down the strip. Being local I typically stay away unless I am seeing a show.

Back seat??? You have the roof rack seat.

I'm in for that. However, if my being 'in' will mean that others will be opting 'out' I can go ahead and decline. No prob.

My car will be for sale then, so I'll get lots of insurance so we can thrash the living shilt out of it, then sell it to some unsuspecting rube
(ya know - gnat, or equiv).
