OK, I just made reservations for 12 people for the track tour on Saturday. We can rachet that number up/down as needed a bit.

We need to be inside the giftshop where the tour departs no later than 1:30pm (still planning to meet up at 1pm in the lot). The tour will leave at 1:45 pm. The track will call me Saturday AM if there is any issue with weather (ice on track) and I'll post here if there is.

Let's plan to meet outside the tower in the giftshop parking area initially - we'll move around the track for pictures after the tour.

Default Charlotte meet 1-18

Sorry, Dave, but I have to cancel. Family decided to come (infrequent visits) on Saturday. Hopefully next time. I hope this doesn't cause a problem with the speedway reservations. If so, I will be glad to pay the fee anyway.

No problem - bring em along if you want to though!

We got a little bit of white stuff last night but it will be melted off by noon. Weather tomorrow looks cold but clear.

Just heard back from the General Manager at Hendrick Lexus. He's offered to get us a tour of their awesome new facilities (not fully open yet). If folks are interested, we'll make that a stop on our 'Lexus cruise' sometime before 5pm.

Ahh yeahh. Lexus freebies. They actually owe me a few nice Lexus caps promised for our last meet.

Also - Ethan was nice enough to overnight some NICE ClubLexus shirts for us to give away as well.

Actually yeah that should work. I believe it's exit 48, Speedway Bvd. You'll take a right turn on that road (away from Concord Mills mall) and you'll run smack into the racetrack in about a mile.

Call when you're getting close!

Other than a few mild cases of frostbite, I think those who showed had a great time!

Daddy-O's ride...


KLex's ride...


DaveGS4's ride...


Dex's ride (sans Lowenhart wheels)...


Parked on LMS turn one in the loaded tour van. Immediately after this picture was taken, we took three laps in that van at 100mph (these three laps were the highlight of the day IMO)


We have a winner!!!!! (Thank You CL) Scott, this is your chance to get me back :-)

tomtnc, nice pics, thanks for sharing. Looks like you had a beautiful blue sky at least even if it was cold.
