Spring 2018 Boston Mountains Tour

Dear Friends,

You are invited to join other S2000 owners and driving enthusiasts for the 23rd semi-annual S2000 Boston Mountains Tour!!!

This tour will cover some of the best winding and scenic roads that the Arkansas Boston Mountains range of Central and Northwestwest Arkansas has to offer with roads that challenge even the most experienced drivers.

On Saturday, March 24th, all drivers will be given a tour packet that will have your group number, route with turn-by-turn directions, lunch and dinner maps (if applicable). The Arkansas Boston Mountains Tour is one of the best environments for you to fully enjoy what your sports car was made to do - TURN!

The BMT is a great social event and you will have the opportunity to meet great people from across multiple states. We look forward to seeing you there!

When:
Saturday, March 24th, 2018

Time:
Registration Opens at 7:30 a.m.
Mandatory Drivers Meeting: 8:10 a.m.
Tour Starts: 8:30 a.m.

Where:
Clarion Inn & Suites
2407 N Arkansas Ave
Russellville, AR 72802
479-968-4300

Hotel Booking Information:
There are a block of double bed rooms set aside for us at a nightly rate of $79.99. When you call the hotel you will need to mention that you are with the Boston Mountains Tour to get the deal. There are only 15 rooms available as the hotel was already pretty well filled for the weekend, so if you aren't able to get in on the deal, there are a number of other close by hotels that have rooms available as well. We had to do something similar last year due to some maintenance work that was being done at the local power plant and it seemed to work out alright. We don't know what prompted the Clarion to be so full this time. So, get 'em while the gettin's good!

__________________________________________________ ____________________________________________

This tour is limited to 50 cars, so secure your spot ASAP!

Reminders will be given periodically as we get closer to the event to inspect the following:

Car (registration)
Tires (including spare)
Alignment
Brakes
Fluids

Extra items that are good to have on you:

2 way radio, see notes below
Paper map (usually available at the beginning of the tour) since a lot of the areas we drive through don't have very good cell reception
Fire extinguisher (small)
Small tool kit

Other requirements to participate are as follows:

You must be 18 years of age or older
You must have a valid driver's license
Your car must have current registration
You must have a valid proof of insurance
Your tires must have at least 3/32" of tread on them at their lowest point

It is a good idea to have a 2-way radio with you. Although not a requirement, it will help your group leaders to communicate with you about upcoming road conditions, turns, or any other information that may be important for the group to know. It also provides the ability for people in the group to communicate with your Tour Guide or other members of the group as well. In general, they are just a helpful tool to have in the car with you.
There are several participants that have taken a liking to this radio. >>>
