Cars will be very safe. I scouted the hotel and set up the deal with the rooms. No pre registration, the rates are good until the hotel fills up.

Can you guys move it to California? We never have anything here. I like the red header. Kinda hard to miss. Why don't you get in you car and drive out to Hershey? You could get the long distance award. I would suppose a teener smelling like chocolate is preferable to one smelling like burnt oil. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Hi guys,
I am closing in on the end of robotics build season...two more days. Till then I get 15 minutes to eat dinner after work (cant touch this site at work) and then home at 10 pm, and crash. I will add more real data next week when we ship the robot off to the competition...I get two weeks of no robot...woohoo. More to come, I will get some details about the autox,,,,the concours, a few more details of some of the weekend that we can put on the web site. Stay tuned...maybe we can convince George Hussey to do something special..also Jake Raby...who knows I will make more progress next week. Meantime, I am DD my 914 in all the crappy weather here...loads of fun.. Rich Can you guys move it to California? We never have anything here. I like the red header. Kinda hard to miss.

I'm in. Hershey is nearly in our back yard. Advise if I can arrange a group photo. I've taken many groups there. One group shot got a 2 page spread in Pano. I do have a few connections.
Let me know. Keoni914 |

Oh, BTW, There is a rumor the entry form is nearing completion and will be up on the web site soon. Also, I hear there is plans for a sponsor page. So anyone wanting to be a sponsor for this first year event send Ray (rmital) a PM. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Keoni914 This is a 914 community event being organized by Rich (r towle) Zach (Vacca Rabite) Ray (rmital) and Mike (Dr Evil) The event is posted all over the place. Some guys hang, here some guys hang out on Pelican and others lounge over on the club site and NARP. I mostly hang here. I really don't have time to check every site everyday. The web site will have a contact persons email listed soon. Why do I know this? Cause one of the kids that helped with the video link posted in my signature space is working on the web site for us. |
