The "Ohio" caravan...will be coming in on channel 4....That is the channel we use, 95% of the time, during our events !!!!
Let's just stick with Channel 4. That way nobody will have to change all weekend. Sound reasonable?
How do you fit a TV into your S2000?

He sits a 55" LCD TV on the dash and uses bungee cords hooked to the windshield wiper arms to hold it in place. The biggest problem is the 300 mile long extension cord (oh, and not being able to see what's in front of him while he's driving).

Looking forward to this event. It's gray and gloomy out today and I could use some top down time. Maybe it's time to program the GPS with hotel address and other points of interest for the trip. That should help me feel as if the trip is much closer.

We're going to skip packing a TV though. Don't care much about TV on these weekends.

that really isn't a technical problem, just put up a camera on the backside on the screen and pop up a picture in picture viewer.
Personally I think I'd be more concerned about the increase in frontal area creating incredible drag and knocking acceleration way down.
not to mention the mileage loss

A sterling idea. The mileage loss hardly matters when you can drive and watch the "Real Lookers of Altoona" reality program.
