if we have enough people to get everyone 4 to a room, your looking at about 500-600$ a person. That is with hotel @ 110$ (averaged over 4 nights and 4 way split b4 taxes) and about 160$ in gas to make the trip. Show registration gets you +1 into the show on all days. Last year i brought 500$ for me and i had 50$ left when i got back to grab dinner with the g/f. That included liquor, buying small stuff down there, eating out everyday at denny's, pizza hut, red robin, sonic, bob evans etc...

This year i plan to take about 750$ with me in case i find a good deal on some parts. Going to be a good year!
And since we need an idea of numbers....

planning to attend:
Jamie
John
Korby +1
Oscar
Luke

maybe:
jamie #2
JMcustoms
jonathan
brandon
chris
leo
eric
02_svt_guy

anyones names i forgot, post up.


now also, i am likely bringing down my gf +2 friends too. i basically already have a full room if they come through on this. worst case i will have 2 open spots.

I'd be going from Ottawa, as would JM Customs depending if he either took his focus or ended up passenger in mine.

Awesome! this is coming along great, and to go with the good response dark puppet is hopefully going to be setting us up a sub section so we can have all our information for referencein one location too. keep your eyes peeled in the next few weeks for that to show up as i will be putting all the information for FR into specific threads there along with having our discussion going on there as well.

I will also have an official attendance thread which will also note who is registered along with a room mate thread when the time comes to find room mates if need be.

Way, way WAY too far out of the way. I think that alone adds another 4.5 hours to our drive - the entire drive to Toronto. Lol

im pending if i can go or not...seeing as i have 2 counts of possession of stolen property charges on my right now...not entirely sure if i can even cross the boarder. ahaha im hoping i can get these charges dropped before hand though so i can make it out! (seeing as i had nothing at all to do with these charges, just wrong place at the wrong time deal.)

Brandon- you should be able to pass threw if its only stolen property. They only really care about the drugs and booze charges.

I'm soo glad to see so much interest in this now. And Jamie but me as a 100%. Only way I'm not making it is if I'm dead lol.

It would be best for your sake of the drive to leave from ottawa and meet up either on the way or down at the hotel. When time draws closer we will set up drive down information. It would be preferential to not drive with 10 cars all at once, but to rather break it up into 2-3 groups. dont want to draw to much attention on the drive or the border crossing.
