What are the best dives to eat at?
Memphis was easy because the food network talked about it all the time.
BBQ I'm sure! Ribs maybe?
Go the the DDD site and their are 3 places listed.
Porters steakhouse in the doubletree has a great breakfast buffet.
Where to eat all depends on what you like. Here is a local magazine dedicated to food in the STL area:
Sauce Magazine: Intelligent Content For The Food Fascinated
That's a great link.Quote:

Alan, sorry if I missed it but how much is the basic weekender package with no events?
You missed early registration, Basic registration is now $125.
For weekend?
Would it make sense to sell my registration and just be a guest on my friends now that my car is blown up? If anything I am only going to do autocross with his car.
We don't have a weekender any more. The idea was that a "weekender" registration would get a lot of people that could come only for the weekend. We never had that many weekend onlys. Most of the ones that did wanted to come early and it just ended up being a lot more work for us.Quote:

You'd save more just canceling the drags/dyno and getting the refund thats allowed per the rules.Quote:

Of all the events that week only one is in ST Louis, MO (gokarts) All the rest are in IL. Track is in Madison, IL (neigobors East STL) the banquet is in collinsville, Il and the Car show is in Alton, Il
But unless you spend the week in the parking lot at the hotel you'll probably end up in STL, mo on several occasions.
East side...... Different
It is all in the metro area, so not really a big deal. And for those that are not familiar with the area you can be reassured that all our events are not in bad parts of the area. We will not be in East St. Louis or Washington Park.Quote:

So Sauget and Washington park are the areas you want to avoid?
Mike and were just talking about this the other night.
We wondered off in a bad part of Memphis by accident one year.
I don't want to do that again. :unsure:
No kidding, it can be hard to miss the bad part of town in Memphis unless you stay on the interstate lolQuote:

The track is right off of the highway and is a straight shot down the highway from the hotel, so travel to and from the track will be a piece of cake. And when heading into St. Louis for sight seeing or go karts you just stay on the highway until you cross the river.
Also if you want to go somewhere and have questions feel free to ask a local, we will gladly help.
The STL group had a similar issue with passing an exit and winding up in a questionable part of Memphis on the way to the car show in 08. So I feel you on the high tension city tour thing.
Yea that was a "fun" little detour.Quote:

so i went looking for awnsers and cant find any ..... i dont plan on running my car in any events and am only going to be their thursday afternoon through sunday morning , would registering my car as a participant or taking someones empty guest spot be a better deal? just want to know before i pay only 25 dollar difference but apparently the site read i get a free tshirt with guest spot :) also if i bring a certified helmet can i ride along in events that allow so ?
If your 3S is coming you need to be a registration.
just to stave my curiosity , what are the pros of full registration v guest, since you already made it clear if my 3s is coming i need to register full
You get to bring your 3S and your can put your 3S in the car show.
Guest registrations are intended for friends an family.
oh gee alan are you saying were not friends ? i was getting the whole wrong vibe from you i guess ;) thnx
:p
