pfft broomfield you still owe me 2 dollars !!! im comin to ng just to collect on that debt .... wait you bought me minecraft nvrmind
STL Local checking in. :coo3l:
I actually work 5 minutes from the hotel.
There's a White Castle within walking distance for all of your late night burger cravings. lol
There's a family water park within walking distance as well. Pack your suits if you're bringing the little ones.
There's a Country Dance club within walking distance... Get your boot scootin' boogie on.
There's a go-kart, mini golf, and arcade within walking distance. Let your kids play games for tickets for trinkets
With the car show being in Alton... I would be remiss without talking about Fast Eddies for awesome, cheap food and cold drinks. (Lori and Alan got a taste of it on one of their visits)
Also, has there ever been consideration to giving locals "day passes" at a certain price points?
For instance... let's say I want to bring my dad to something one day and my brother another but their schedules don't allow them to attend all events. Very pricey for a local to bring a "guest" like that for one event, hence a "day pass". Just throwing out ideas.
Race events will have spectator fees for people that are not part of the group.
I must have missed that.Quote:

The spectator option is for the track entry ONLY! $10 at the gate.
Hanging out at the hotel for people that are not registered is not allowed.
Car show is at the part so its free to the public.
Unfortunately no real time for fast eddies on Saturday. Only a few hours separate the car show and the Banquet.
I still haven't seen it posted yet, when is the dyno day and will race gas be available or do we need to source it ourselves?
Jeff
Race gas is not available and will need to be sourced yourself. As the track does not open until Wednesday night you may want to find it local to you and bring it with you. Not many places in STL to get race gas besides the track unless you buy in bulk.
Last I heard, the dyno sessions will happen the morning of July 10th (Wednesday).Quote:

So for those looking for dinner ideas, I strongly recomend checking this place out on a weeknight. If you wait for the weekend it will be stupid busy.
And Kory you forgot to mention Bandana's BBQ in the list of walking distance food
Dyno Day is WednesdayQuote:

The stations near me that used to have 110 leaded no longer carry it, and I hear it was shit anyways.
Yea they only way they would sell to us was in 55 gallon drums...Quote:

3S National Gathering - Schedule
Keep this link and check it for updates during the event.
I would paypal for this as I really don't want to tote 5 gallons of C-16 on a 10 hour drive. It will need to be a sealed VP C16 5 gallon container. Anyone interested, please PM me.Quote:

Bill checked with Steve king fuels in high ridge they have most of your fuel requirements in stock may want to give them a call and they are open Tuesday.
So what's the parking situation at hotel? They told me 70 spots and Brent 42.
Hmmmm That's strange. I counted - can't remember the exact numer. There's a huge area right next to the hotel that trailers will be parking in, and several adjacent hotels, a couple of which are owned by the same people. No worries - parking won't be a problem. It's not my first rodeo.
Okay thnx Lori. The areal pic from google maps was very disleading
Got here about noon today.
The barbecue place next door is really good!
Traveling across Kentucky on I64 had a lot of 55 mi areas because of construction if you are coming that way.
Step one if.your going Down 64 please slow down near Shelbyville. Speed traps everywhere. Also if your passing Shelbyville in the evening, your welcome to crash on my pull out bed.Quote:

As a matter of fact, the entire 55/64/70 area is notorious for drug busts and speed traps. With so many people having out of state plates, please exercise extreme caution on the highways/roads.
Granny, yes that BBQ joint is real goodQuote:

The station is a Phillips 66 at the corner of Jeffco Blvd and Villa Dr in Arnold, MO; right next to an ACE hardware.
