[Heels1989]

from Chicago, i'm looking at Wed. arrival and Monday Departure.

I have an "in" possibly for hotels not too far from the track, it worked out well when we went in 2013, about 7 miles from the track.

3 to a room is fine with me, we did it last time with a roll out.

once i hear back from "in" i'll need a head count to see what we're working with numbers wise.

*suggestions, if we get a soccer mom van we might only need to rent 1 car? and put gpk in the back with the spare tire

Booked almost same times. Get in 10:15 Thursday and leave 9:45 Sunday.

my "in" has nothing but good news..... we can get max 4 rooms between 2 hotels in OLDSMAR, at AWESOME prices. BUT he says he's not sure how long the prices will last.

tentative head count on who NEEDS a room, and is fairly certain they will in the Box De Bigs come the last week in February?????

starting to come together pepper!!!

Gonna make the pitch this weekend. Probably going to try the Wednesday morning to early Saturday morning play. This way I'm back home for Saturday and the boys.

One question, is golf on the itinerary? If so, I'm going to need to bring a second suitcase for golf balls.

I'm 6 one, half dozen the other when it comes to golf this year. I can be talked into it or out of it. Trying to arrange all that sh*t last time was the equivilant of herding cats, and God knows my history when it comes to herdimg p*ssy.

I vote for golf if I can make it, just sayin'

We need to get a pool started on what the first race of that day will be. They love to start with those dated nickels, but im gonna call it a maiden 8 going 5.5

Big's Call: -280

Field: +120


If recency is any indication, Mid week + February we'll see a 5KN1Y, an open 6250, or an 8K N3L. they save the maiden 8's for the last leg of each of the P4's and the second half of the early DD

Good deal. You, 3kings and I arrive within an hr of each other. I will secure the rental car and the three of us can pool together. If anyone else is schd to arrive around the same time they can pile in as well
