What does everyone think of Main Event? Laser Tag, mini. golf, bowling, games, and best of all BEER and LIQUIOR. I figured on sat night after we take a few pics we can go here. Its very cheap and I talked to them last night a group price isnt that bad. Here is a link:http://www.maineventusa.net/newsite/...lle/index.html
Now the city shown is Lewisville which is by my house. There are two other locations that we can choose from depending on what Hotel is closer. Let me know what you guys think

Not to be harsh or offend anyone I just find it a bit funny that the only people talking about the drive and the I'll wait and see are the ones that live relatively close to DFW.

That is what I don't understand. It seems that we have more people coming from out of state that are happy to come with no hesistation. My thing is does it really matter if its a 1,000 people showing or say that they are showing. just come to have fun, meet new people, and support other Lexus Enthusiasts like the rest of us. Plus once this has past and the rest of other lexus drivers or soon to be drivers see how much fun we had they will make a better effort to show next year.

Well can't speak for other turnouts, but as you can see so far we have this in the bag.

Also Ryan that place we discussed as a backup is not an option. I will have more details at our conference call.
