The Sixth Annual Tomcatt Run!
The Sixth Annual Tomcatt Memorial Meet will take place the weekend of June 17-19, 2011. This event is open to all badged Vintage members, and known Pre-Vints. S2000 ownership is NOT a requirement.
This event is named in honor of our dear friend Tom Curda (AKA Tomcatt), who passed away May 24th, 2006. Rt. 26 was his all-time favorite driving roads. This year marks the 5th anniversary of his passing.
This meet is very special to many of us. It combines 2 of the best thing about S2000 ownership:
Friendship: Many of the friendships made on this forum have continued throughout life's twists and turns, and have transcended the actual ownership of the car. Everyone at the Tomcatt meet is a friend, whether old or new.
The Drive: The roads of southern Ohio are full of twisties and elevation changes; perfect for the S2000. You will enjoy driving through rural areas complete with rivers, forests, farms and covered bridges. Route 26, from Cambridge to Marietta, Ohio, previously one of Car & Driver's 10 best drives in the USA, comprises the main part of the run. For the past several years, we have also added Ohio Rt. 555 to our day’s drive. This is a spectacular rollercoaster of a road, much of it recently repaved. Our drive will take up most of the day on Saturday: 7 hours, 215 miles, 2 rest stops, a lunch break, and one stop for gas. If you like to challenge your car and yourself, and enjoy the sound of VTEC, then this is the drive for you! If you like to get your heart pumping when behind the wheel, then this drive will not disappoint. Expect to drive the way this car was meant to be driven!
For those who are looking for a more moderate drive, this year we will again have a Touring drive group.
Marietta, Ohio will be our home base. Arrive on Friday, drive on Saturday, party Saturday evening, head homeward on Sunday.
Hotel:
I have reserved a block of 20 rooms at the Hampton Inn in Marietta for Friday, June 17th & Saturday, June 18th. The phone number is 740-373-5353. When calling for your reservation, tell them you are with the TomCatt Honda Group). Room cost is $99 for standard doubles. The block of rooms will be held until May 17th, 2011. Contact: Shelley Atkins – Group Sales.
Please post your interest in this thread. A separate drive group thread will be started sometime in the next few weeks.
This post will be updated with additional information as the date approaches.
