Hey guys!

There's a BIG mazda meet being held Feb. 5th, to Feb 6th 2005!

I know that it is the superbowl weekend, but if you can make it, that'd be GREAT.... We'd love to have you.

I believe that I will be going along with my boyfriend JammerJ (Jay).

Post up here if you can go, and i will forward it to the msprotege site.

9pm-1am (or so) - Caravan to Lassiter Mountain Drag Strip in Gardendale, AL for drag racing with timeslips. Another great photo-op and chance to see other mazda's in action.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


COST

$3/day to get into the park (children and seniors is $1)
$10 for Barber's Museum
$10.55/night for a campsite. (about 1/4th the price of a hotel nearby)
and I'm asking for $3-5 per person to help with the overhead of renting all this stuff and to pay for the cost of food. I figure we'll have about 50 people show up and I've already spent almost $300 on supplies! No'one is required to pay anything but park admittance. Everything else is optional but would help.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

RULES

Should be common sense but you never know..

NO ALCOHOL - state park rules and you will be fined and removed
NO RACING - common sense yet again
NO USELESS REVVING OR BURNOUTS - we don't need to draw negative attention to ourselves.
NO FIGHTING - goes without saying.

Another event I'd love to make, but work and the weather will keep me from attending. I do like the golf part of it, but again, not in the cold.

That's what I say LOL, sorry I never made it. A few things came up at the last min

 

Well, if you look hard you'll see the mirror of a pickup in the photo. The photo was taken from atop a hill.

Several guys from CAMS (Miata club) came out too. As you can see, only one made the photo.
