Allrighty guys and gals, after much headache/heartburn and some last minute changes we finally have a schedule.
Unfortunately, as much as we wanted to hold the welcome dinner/breakfast performance seminar at the Nascar Cafe, it just didn't work out. At the beginning it was all peachy, but towards the end they wanted booku money up front and were impossible to get ahold of...so we found a better place.
The welcome dinner/breakfast performance seminar will be held at the Fast Lane Cafe at the Las Vegas Speedway, which is where we will be drag racing on the 1st evening and touring the Shelby Factory Sat afternoon. They are shutting the place down JUST FOR US and it's ours for as long as we need it. We have a great dinner planned. If you don't like what we have then you can just order from the menu. Breakfast will be the usual continental found at most hotels, and some variations will be allowed as people request them. They are willing to work with us and not against us as the Nascar Cafe started to seem.
Here it is!!!

There it is folks. The one thing we need to stress is to be flexible. Traffic/construction going on at the strip and hoover dam may force us to make some changes. Tach and I will be arriving in Vegas 2 days early to scout it all out and make changes as needed. Once you arrive for registration we will let you know of any changes that are made.
We are going to scout for some possible photo locations too. Bill Steves has recommended the top of a few casino parking garages at sunset that would make for some awesome shots! Like I said Tach and I will be scouting it up!
Official Convention T-shirts will be on sale throughout the convention for $20.00. At registration you will receive a laminate convention I.D with your name attached to a Toyo tires lanyard, Maximum Motorsports catalog, updated schedule, and directions to all of the events with the starting point of the Alexis Park Hotel.
We will be raffling off a set of Toyo T1-S tires and an MGW Shifter T-handle, both part of the "Help Tach9 get to Vegas Raffle." Tickets will still be on sale for $20.00 each! The raffle will be held at either the welcome dinner or breakfast seminar, depending on how many tickets sell.
Well that's it! I'm sure there will be plenty of questions so go ahead and post 'em up and we'll do our best to help you out.
Tach and I are excited as all hell and can't wait to meet everyone in Vegas for some much needed fun. Drive safely everyone!!!!!!
