There is a gravel road that is not mentioned on any maps. Based on Stacy's descriptions, I think there is a very good possibility we will be on or near this road. I have drawn it in red:

Mark and myself saw the tent today. My friend and I will try to arrive before 8AM tomorrow to block off some space for people to park there. Several RVs / campers have already staked claim to some of the real estate there, but we should have some real estate.

As already mentioned, as soon as you cross the bridge, take a left on to the gravel road and to up there. We are essentially at the corner of where you would turn in for the North Course cut-through.

Guys - thank you so much for doing that. My plan is to be there around 8:15-8:30 to help out.

I'm sorry we missed you. We kept expecting you to show up at the tent.

John took some incredible pics and said he was going to post a bunch. We're waiting John! I took my camera, but didn't even get it out of the bag.

We all had a great time!

Had a great time. John has some great pics. He won't be home till tonight. It was nice to finally meet some of the guys from the site. I helped crew with BJ's team and had a blast. His was the top finishing 350Z in 4th place. The Performance cars ran 5th & 6th. It was great meeting Jeff & Jason from Performance too. More later.

Thanks again to everyone for coming out... we all had a good time I think.

Matt - do you remember seeing a big green Armada show up just a few minutes before the Mustang caught on fire? (I think that's where you're saying you were). That was us!

Anyway - sorry we didn't get together. But I guess we'll see that C6 in a few weeks at CMP right?

Stacy and Marty: I didn't have a chance to thank you for all your hard work that you invested in organizing this event. We'll definitely have to do the same thing next year again! I had a great time this weekend, enjoyed meeting more of the TZC crowd, and seeing some familiar faces as well.

Some of my photos are up in a new thread. Enjoy!
