HARALD KELLEY Posted April 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Thanks but back on track. Received this email: "Today I spoke with Steve Prewitt and we discussed the canopy situation for theMORE lot. We have managed to come to a solution that will be more acceptable toall those attending.After completing and signing a waiver, each group will be able to setup canopiesin their area that meet the requirements set forth on the website. The waiverwill be available upon arrival at the event.My apologies for not having this in place prior to putting information out toall of the MORE participants." So it appears that a canopy may be set up with the 25lb leg weight. I think it is only one per group. However, damage caused by it will be the responsibility of the club. If someone sets up a canopy I would say it should not be left unattended and taken down prior to leaving the area. I am just going to bring a couple of umbrellas for my chairs if needed. This whole thing is not worth the headache and or risk in my opinion. I will still try to get the authorization for "JeffJ" trailer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of hassle for a small gain in shade. Thanks for looking into this. Is water available in the area or should we bring it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Bash we went to one of our guys ended up in the hospital with dehydration. Doc told me to make sure and drink lots of water in Vegas. I'll bring some just to be sure i have it.

b17drvr Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I will be drinking plenty of water. I've had kidney stones from dehydration and they are no fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IASHELBYGT Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I'm bringing water as well. I doubt with all the congestion they are going to search every car for god sakes, it's simply so their vendor can charge us all $4 a bottle. If I have to I'll give it up, but I'm going to bring some.

Thanks. I can buy a case of 32 bottles of water for $2.99 here. Less than .10c per bottle. Also it is basically the same water as I have been drinking all along. No tummy surprises from different water sources.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HARALD KELLEY Posted April 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Wholly crap, canopies to water. I am bringing water and will bring some snacks in the event I lounge at the MORE parking area which is outside of the track 50th venue and when checking out our track folks. Not too warm and fuzzy IMO. All drama aside, looking forward to seeing those I have not seen in a while and looking to meet new folks. Thanks everyone for signing up. I think it will be great to have guaranteed parking and the flexibility to come and go through the day & week and not be locked into the speedway from early morning until 5:00 pm.

Inactive Account 1 Posted April 5, 2014 Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 Can you still add a person to the list to park with TS members? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kstrong Posted April 5, 2014 Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 is it too late to add someone to MORE PARKING Found this is from over a week ago. To quote H0050; Posted 24 March 2014 - 10:52 PM A few folks have asked to be added to the MORE parking. This is closed and no one can be added as per the MCA 50th website and MCA staff. Sorry but it is out of my control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HARALD KELLEY Posted April 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 JeffJ, got the confirmation, no trailer. Chris W. actually tried but other MCA staff felt it would open a can of worms. I can understand that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silversurfer Posted April 5, 2014 Report Share Posted April 5, 2014 Thanks. Just gotta post one pic for you. edit; OK, one more; We are going to Fantasy of Flight right now in Polk City, FL. The Mustangs & Mustangs show will be there today.My 2007 Shelby GT was in The MCA Times next to a B-51 Bomber in the area where it lists car events. This was The February edition of the MCA times in 2013. We would normally be going with the cars today but they are on a transport on there way to beautiful Las Vegas. We will be hanging with Bob Zinzell, the South Atlantic Region Director. He is licensed to build the Shelby Challenger Cars, get your orders in soon and get a low number car! I drove one on track and it was just short of a pro-stock car but with handling and grip. The weather looks wonderful! See ya all in Palm Springs and Vegas! Look for our cars!

05mustangman Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Despite all the rules that we can't do, I think we will all have a great time! I wonder if they will allow one of those beach umbrellas for shade? That would be perfect for a couple chairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure we will even hang in the parking area much if any. Either way Bash and then the 50th, epic week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silversurfer Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 ? I think he means that hunting, golfing and fishing all are expensive as well. I don't golf but everything else is expensive. Motorcycles, Jet skis, Shelby's and guns and ammo. That's what I sink my $ in! Correct, when you say can't take it with you. I have had to work for all I have, my parents are spending my inheritance so they have the same vision! When I go, my son can take care of everything I spent my $ on! He already knows many things that he can never get rid of and I tell him, better get a big house someday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARALD KELLEY Posted April 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Gentle reminder for those who have not been to Vegas, especially when out at the speedway. The air in Vegas is dry plus the sun can dehydrate you. That said, bring wide brim hat, sun glasses, sun screen, water and stay hydrated (drink) and even lip balm. Start your engines!
