Dunno, somewhere between Autobahn and Road America, but I figure we'll see what time we leave and find a hotel on the way. My co driver is far from proficient at booking hotels on the fly, but I'm sure it will be next to a place with beer.

Tremblant, no PCA special offers published yet:

For events that are PCA DEs, are you signing up as instructors in Red (possibly with students), or just in Black to lap with no duties?

I just looked at Mosport I am red with PCA, does that mean I am instruction.

Tremblant it shows as black but unconfirmed because I can't pay them because I have no Canadian credit card to clubregistration.net with Paypal. Weird.

Even though it's cheaper to instruct, you guys looked miserable from doing that last year

Yes, Red is instructing... but I think that you may or may not have a student.

I'm not 100% sure how all of this works, but you have to be an instructor to run in Red (or get a special dispensation by the chief instructor of the event), so the group might be split up between Red and Black groups.

Don't mean to make this sound too complicated, but if you would like the group to run together, you might want to e-mail each region's registrar to discuss. For Rennsport (Tremblant), Bob Rouleau is both the registrar and the CI. For the Mosport event, I think that the registrar is UCR, but the CI would be NNJR.

Or just do nothing and let the chips fall where they may...

Make sure that you find a way to pay when you get the notice. There is a limited number of cars allowed at the track, and events are often sold out, so I "think" that they can drop you if you haven't paid once they reach the limit, and someone else wants to join (not sure how that works).

Decided that the old hauler wasn't good enough for our trip around the Lakes - just got back from the dealer - pulled the trigger on a new 2012 Ford F-450 Lariat with NAV, SiruisXM, all the bells and whistles.
