I think I'll use MyAutoEvents.com again...it's been YEARS since I used them...but expect the details soon.

Also - do you think going to a CHECK MAIL-IN for registration would make folks go nutz?

???
by stuff you mean safety meeting supplies right?

Wow, I didn't mean for this thread to cause a stir. I simply wanted to confirm it as a fact rather than a Fontana clerk making a mistake. For those who care, Fontana called me again today and said they will honor the WTD price for the rooms. In case Raul decides to indeed book Fontana for WTD XI, you will already have a room. If you change yor mind you can always cancel.
go ahead and cancel it...we're staying at nantahala for wtdxi right raulo? we're gonna have a vtec flugtag with airgoat at the helm...redbull aint got shit on us
Holy cow...Nantahala for WTD, ouch! Nothing is big enough to accommodate our crew. The ideas (let's call 'em voices) in my head are racing with ideas...but DBRXII is the focus.

LULZ on Red Bull...hmm, potential sponsors for future events...

if you agree to let us push you off a bed decorated like an s2000 into those rapids at nantahala i bet we can get sponsors from as far as canada right cheryl?

Frig yeah. I'll start sourcing right now. Get back to y'all ASAP!

1.) it will be more expensive at Alcoa, trust me.

2.) you keep forgetting that getting to the dragon is only half way, eh! You still have to go back to Alcoa, eh!


(and didn't you say your car was the one which had issues? You "couldn't enjoy it the way you wanted to"?! My new exhaust arrives tomorrow, I'll let you know how it goes... )

You may, at any given point, admit your mistake and relocate to Fontana, it's ok, Raul

Your doughnuts make me go nuts

Wouldn't bother me at all, and those eventbrite fees are redonkulous IMO

Those of us averted to filling out a check can still have our banks mail you one through through their website (well, most offer this these days, don't know about all)

I can respect this. Thanks (or "gracias" in your native language) for not shafting us with needless fees Raulito...
