Ok so I must be doing something wrong... I registered for Saturday, but when I try to register for Sunday it kept showing Saturday's registration, and now it's saying it's at maximum registration.... damn. :bangwall:

If anyone is going to drop out of Sunday please let me know!

Your info is stored in your profile, so it will come up on any registration page. Sunday is probably full.

yeah it is. I looked at the entry list and I'm guessing I missed out by a few minutes or maybe days and it was a glitch when I pulled a registration screen earlier. oh well I'll just have to keep an eye out for a cancellation in the next 3 days.

Yes both links from the home page both point to the Oct 15 registrations, not one to the 15th and one to the 16th as described. Almost registered for the day I cannot attend as I was doing it fast and on my phone.

I would like to bring a guest along. How should I go about updating my registration? Or should I just tell you his name and bring $5?

Nothing really changed, just clarifications. I would say you are still good for H. Which is now called S4?

Unfortunately (as posted at the front of the thread and on the MAE announcement), we're up against the limit -- can't take any more guests.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. Registration closes at 10pm tonight.
2. As of right now, there is an opening for Sunday, and plenty for Saturday.
3. We still need someone to tow the trailer. Anybody? Even if it's just a return Sunday, it would help.

It's a paying gig folks, does someone have a friend that'd be willing to drop it off and pick it up?

When it's time for a new trailer, maybe we should just get one of these, and a flat bed trailer so someone can haul their car up. LOL

Just think, in the hot summer months, the timing people could have A/C.

A fun idea, but then we have to maintain and insure a vehicle. :no:

I can pick it up Sunday.

As for getting it there I just can't do it. My 4-1/2hr flight gets in at 11:40pm Friday. Even with a late event start Saturday I would be hard pressed to get this done.

Thanks, Ed. That'll work great. As far as getting the trailer there, I'll probably end up borrowing a truck Saturday and hauling it myself. I'll have to bum a car (or a few cars) to get some runs in on Saturday, but that's okay.

I love it when a plan comes together!

If this isn't a very solid plan let me know and I can make the 3.5 hr loop to deliver it sometime on Friday(most likely mid-day), assuming the airport wouldn't care when it's dumped there.

P.S. - I only reg'd for Sunday but would like to register for both days to use the practice course only on Sat.
Jamie, what is the easiest way for me to do this as far as you are concerned?

The plan is loose, and I like your plan better! We'll have to verify with Steve, but they usually don't mind if we drop the trailer off Friday.

That's fine. Registration is still open until 10pm tonight. Just register online for Saturday, and we'll owe you a $10 credit. (remind us to give it to you)
