It's confirmed. With a little help from my friends, I can at least be here in Phoenix for the "pre-rally", hopefull host a barbeque, and drive to Vegas, but can only stay there one night. At least I can see everyone at the cocktail reception and spend some quality time with the "True Believers" who make it to the Scottsdale "Rally before the Rally".

Great Tim! It wouldn't be right if you weren't there! :cheers

Isn't Scottsdale between Kansas and Las Vegas? Of course we'll be there. Thanks Chip and Tim.

Looking forward to the local Rally to the LV Rally :thumbsup I'll get in touch with the car guys at Channel 3 for a televised overhead shot of the caravan. Of course, our location will be top secret :lol

Doc (ByeEnzo)....You can lead because we have proven on the trip to Wichita Falls that red cars are faster and I wouldn't want to run off and leave you. :banana:biggrin

Looks like I'm going to have to pull a "Tim Cantwell" too. I had reserved a Lake Powell houseboat for my company trip on what has turned out to be the rally weekend, but Arlette and I will make it to the pre-rally, and the drive down to Vegas for the one night.

I am planning on making the trip with my Motorhome, 3 car stacker and both of my GTs. Jason Heffner might fly out to Midland and convoy with us. My wife and newborn baby might be along for the ride as well.

How big of a truck and trailer can you accommodate? I would also like to line up the full treatment on both cars by Jason's Auto Spa if there is still room...

Not only do I have room for your rigs, after you get them parked and your GTs unloaded, the Teddy Roosevelt bar inside serves complimentary cocktails and hors d'oeuvres that you can enjoy while you enjoy the beautiful desert views and the topless young ladies suning themselves out by my pool. See you here.

Record-breaking attendance at Scottsdale Rally

Gentlemen,

As all who are familiar with the GT Forum Owners Group would expect, attendance at this year's Scottsdale Rally to the Rally will be huge and participants are in for a great time. Do not call the rally hotel yet as it will be a couple more days before I set up our good guy room rate. I will have that done by Friday.

Here is a list of participants so far. :banana :banana :banana :banana

If you would be so kind, please post up and let me know the number in your party, how many GTs you will be bringing, and whether or not you will need truck and trailer parking space at my home. If you have any other special requirements or requests you may send me a PM or I can be reached at any time on my cell phone at 602-430-4877.

The restaurants that have hosted us in years past would love to have us back. Those establishments are Don and Charlie's (world's best baby back ribs) and the El Chorro Lodge. Lunch and cocktails on Tuesday will be hosted by Veronica and yours truly at my north Scottsdale estate :biggrin catered by Honey Bears Barbecue. Good food and drink and great friends will make this a most memorable tuneup to Rally III. You're not going to want to miss it. Cheers. :cheers

Chip

Thanks, Chip!
I will probably be 2 people attending and I will probably have a F-250 with a 26 ft. trailer. I will let you know if anything changes.
Thanks,
Dave

I will most likely have a party of 3, a Freightliner Motorhome and Stacker trailer, 2 GTs and hoping like hell to find a solid black GT to put in the last spot coming home :biggrin
