Well, I missed the aniversary ride. I returned from a trip to Seattle, sick as
a dog, and spent most of the weekend hacking and sleeping, I must have needed
the rest. I actually got into my car to leave, got as far as my office,
realized that I was too dizzy to drive, and gave it up, probably a wise
decision.
On another note, other than two votes for Cabo, I haven't seen any interest in
a car corral at Infineon Raceway on the IRL weekend, two weeks from now, Aug
20-21-22. Following is an email from Mike D'Addario outlining our designated
area and ticket prices. The package listed below is for Sunday, and is a great
value, as it includes entry and seat, Q&A with Mario Andretti, and the Garage
Pitt pass, which gets you into the garage area up close and personal, and
access to Pit Road up to 30 minutes to race time. If we want to do it on
Saturday, the cost would be $30 per person, and we would be on our own for
acivities, although interested individuals could probably purchase garage
passes. We could also have a nice picnic or BBQ in our corral area, as always,
a nice way to meet and re-introduce ourselves to each other. So come on
people, the last corral was pretty cool, let's do it again. We need to commit
fairly soon if we want to do it at all.

Mike,
I left you a message but I got you guys pavement. It is the area where the
putting green is next to the chute in Turn 7. Bring your putters and have a
party and no dust. As far as the pricing, the prices I sent to you had the
discounts built in. But when you look at a Legends ticket for istance the
breakdown is as follows:
Reserved Seat - 55.00
Garage Pit Pass - 75.00
Q & A With Mario - Priceless
Corral Fee - N/C
Regular Cost - 130.00
Your Cost - 99.00 A Bargain
Sell, Sell, Sell
Mike
Ps; They must call me direct again to get this.

Hi Mike,
Is the area in 3-4 paved, grass, or dirt? Remember that these are old british
cars and these guys get them all cleaned up for this. Dirt in the cars was one
of the big complaints at the vintage event, so they will all want to know.
Also, as old british car owners, not all are into racing or IRL, so the ticket
prices may discourage some. I want to get as many people as possible,
hopefully more the 30 that showed up before. Any chance we can get them a
discount on the tickets? Any other perks or freebies we can get?, say maybe
borrowing Michael Andretti's 2 seater for laps (LOL)? I want to make as cool
as possible for the club.
Also, I doubt that we would want more than one day for the corral, probably
Sunday, what do you think?
