Okay, who's coming to Lovelock!? Reno SCCA finally confirmed the event is a go, so those who are attending need to make hotel reservations.
I plan on going, so who wants to share a hotel room with me? I figure we can cram 3 or 4 people into a room to save some money. I can bring an air matress for myself, so a room w/ two double beds should be fine for at least 3 (at $12/night), but 4 people drops the price to $9/night each.
2nd issue, are we going down Friday night for the welcome party? It'll mean a second night in the hotel. I'd like to go down and party on Friday, mostly so we won't have to drive a long way Saturday morning then race immediately.
One other thing to consider, this is the weekend right before the trip to Laguna Seca for the ALMS race.
FYI: The Hotel's phone number is 775 273-2971. You can ask for the SCCA rate ($36/night) which is half the regular price.
Here's the Reno SCCA Announcement:

Eric,
Would you please send a group email advising that we will be using the airport in Lovelock, NV as the site for our August 30 & 31 Solo 2 event. The Pershing County Building and Grounds Supervisor has reviewed our request with the County Board of Supervisors and they are in agreement. John Evans and I will be required to meet with the Board on August 20 to review insurance with the District Attorney and answer any questions however this is a formality that is not expected to interfere with our event.
A few highlights of the event are:
Welcome party Friday evening at the airport with the gas powered blender fired up and running on the rev limiter plus beer, wine and snacks.
A challenging course laid out on 2400' of excellent pavement including an 1100' section of runway 75' wide and 1300' of taxi-way 35' wide. Participants can expect to see a combination of fast segments and technical segments on a gated course that will test the limits of every drivers skill.
An optional no host banquet on Saturday evening at the hotel casino.
Additional information, event registration forms and banquet sign-ups will be available soon on the Reno SCCA web site.
It is suggested you make hotel reservations immediately by phone at (775) 273-2971. Request the special SCCA rate ($36.00 plus tax) when making reservations.
Thanks,
Dave Deborde
Lovelock Event Chairperson
