I have no problem with accepting or decining their invitation. The TMS is of course first priority for us!

See POST # 4 above: It states that this years date for the CRUISE has not yet been decided.

SITREP: I talked to Mr Buzz Durio this morning and he sees no problem in fitting us into the Cruise Line up. THE SCHEDULE IN THE PREVIOUS POST WAS LAST YEAR'S, AND THIS YEAR'S HAS NOT YET BEEN FINALIZED.
Basically the car groups start out at 09:00 depending on the size on the group and their itinerary. They will be spread so as not to overwhelm the receptioning committee at the various towns. We will need to decide our route when the official list of towns is announced.
We can put a preferred departure time but we will have to take what is available.

"For 2011 we are working on Hospitality Stops in Elmendorf, Floresville, Falls City Panna Maria, Cestohowa, Stockdale, Sutherland Springs and LaVernia. We may have one or two more. Nothing is finalized yet. We just had our meeting this past Thursday. I will keep you posted."

I will keep you updated as I receive info from him. It's a ways off yet, but those that have a solid interest in this, please let me know on here so I can have a number to give him when he asks.

I am going to the meeting they have scheduled to find out what their plans are so I can pass them on at the DYNO-DOO. If I get any info between now and the meeting on the 10th I will pass it along. I don't relish the long drive I have to make for the meeting, but I find it too interesting to pass up.

DON"T anyone be jumping the gun. Dan, InfernoRedxfire is handling the TMS bash and will post a thread this month. The schedule I got from TMS for 2011 is:
05/07/11 Laps for Charity I
Texas Motor Speedway -
You're the driver when Texas Motor Speedway opens the Speedway to the public for the first time this year. Experience the thrill of driving your car around the 1.5-mile superspeedway all to benefit the SCC at Texas Motor Speedway.

09/10/11 Laps for Charity II
Texas Motor Speedway -
You're the driver when Texas Motor Speedway opens the Speedway to the public for the last time this year. Experience the thrill of driving your car around the 1.5-mile superspeedway all to benefit the SCC at Texas Motor Speedway.

This thread is not for the SPEEDWAY event, and will be closed if dates conflict.
