Since the Unleashed event is coming up, I wanted to send out an e-mail to address a few things.

First - Don Roberston comfirmed that trailers will parked as they arrive with no allowance for holding spaces for friends, etc. This is done because of the sheer # of racers that will be there, which was 209 count for index classes alone as of Monday the 18th. We need to figure out a time and place to meet if we want to park as many racers together as possible, so please confirm the earliest you can arrive in Gainesville to meet up Friday morning and we'll decide on a place and time.

Second - I'm willing to do a food run at Sam's club similar to want we did for PINKS All-Out in 2008. This will cover lunch and dinner for Friday and Saturday. If you'd like something specific in the way of food (burgers and hot dogs over chicken and steak from the grille, lunch meats, etc) or drink, let me know and we'll figure out what to get that makes everyone happy (or at least tries to make everyone happy!). The cost last time was around $20 a person, and that covered plenty of snacks as well. I'm also willing to grab beer if those wanting to drink are in for it; again just let me know and I'll try to get it all in one shot.

What I need from you (help!):
1 - Coolers to hold the meats and drinks. I have one but will likely need at least 2-3 more.
2 - A grille or two for cooking.
3 - Anyone you know that this e-mail wasn't sent to that would like to participate in either the parking or food, please feel free to invite them!
Phil - I don't have Rob's, the Hamelink's or the Gatlin's e-mail, so can you check with them and let me know?
Jason - Check with Brian and anyone else you know coming and let me know.


Please let me know no later than Saturday October 30th!

Thanks!

I won't be able to get in with ya'll on friday, as I'll have class that day until 1pm. As I'll only have the suburban and trailer with the camaro....I don't see it as a big problem that I'll be parked somewhere different, as I'll just walk over to where all you guys are. Let me know what I need to bring, or how much money needs to be donated for food. I can bring a couple small coolers, but don't have a grill to bring.

I can make it in the afternoon on Friday, just to get a spot and park. But I won't make it in time for the test and tune or qualifying rounds.

Friday will be tough for me too but will try
