Heck, if having a drivable Porsche were a prerequisite.....hardly anyone would come. Especially one that is trusted enough...and comfortable enough to drive cross country. Heck, if I brought mine, I would trailer it the 9-hr drive from Albuquerque myself....and I have rebuilt/replaced half my car (including a professional engine rebuild. Go to the tech thread and see how many are broken/not-running or undergoing major modification/not-running at any one time.
Besides, with the car theft/vandalism/accident rates in Vegas, I wouldn't park my car on the street here anyways. Remember...what happens in Vegas..stays in Vegas. That includes rare Porsche parts. LOL...Come on down.

Balls I have aplenty. Just wish I had more sense! ;)

Vegas should be nothing, especially with co-pilot Jonathan Klaucke

If you make a go at that, I will have to hit you up for the "Rebel Run 07". A Texas run from Dallas to Houston to Abilene to Longview to San Antonio on back to Dallas. Start to finish, the track forms a lone star. The run will be in early spring - not to hot not to cold. Think of this as the Texas version of the Bull Run!

First things first - the UPM 06 then the Rebel Run 07 - UPM 06 is a party, RR 07 is for the strong at heart and the wanting of wallet!

Ok it's December.

I suggest picking a hotel so it doesn't end up sold out......

M.D. Holloway 12-08-2005 06:05 AM

CC - the hotel rests squarley on TABS broad and meaty shoulders. If by 12/19 he is still wondering, I will fill the leadership vacuum with a more able body or myself.

I think Tabs fell into his new smoker..

M.D. Holloway 12-09-2005 07:06 AM

I'm having visions of Tabs sprawled out on his patio with BBQ smeared all over his face, a distended belly filled with a beef flank unable to even roll to the toilet he just lies there in his on waste as several buzzards circling above. I'm surprised the neighbors haven't called the authorities concerning the stank! Maybe they are used to it.

cool_chick 12-10-2005 10:41 AM

Tabs, get yer ass busy now!

tabs 12-11-2005 01:08 PM

OK ....Coool..I PM you information on several locations
1. Red Rock Stations...they won't open till April 22, 2006..this would be my first choich...give a cursory call anyway to confirm my info...702-797-7777

2. Sun Coast...off strip in Summerlin, 15 minutes form the strip, lots of good restruants nearby. Roys, PF Changs etc. Room rates are 90 for weekdays and 170 for Fri/Sat. number is 887-677-7111

2A. Orleans....just off strip on Tropicana, not as nice in my estimation but rates are $80 weekdays and 120 Fri/Sat. did not pull number for them. They are part of Sun Coast Casino chain.

3. Rampart Casino. next to Sun Coast in Summerlin. run by Marriott Chain, Very nice Hotel, no prices, but more expensive then Sun Coast. If cost is not an object then would be choich. 877-869-7777

4 Mandalay Bay...on S end of strip, nice Hotel. Room rates are 110 weekdays and 190 fri/sat. 877-632-7800

OK these are what I think are good choichs.

M.D. Holloway 12-11-2005 05:28 PM

Tabs - great start my brotha but the word was you were the man to make the hotel plans. Finding some choices are great but now is the next step. The way I see it you can have a poll or make a choice your self.

Step up Major, times they are a waste'n!

cool_chick 12-12-2005 10:20 AM

I vote for the Orleans....

I'm not picky.....

VINMAN 12-12-2005 11:37 AM

Orleans sounds good too

I told him I'd help him....

So Tabs, poll or Orleans?

cantdrv55 12-13-2005 07:36 AM

For those who don't gamble, the Orleans has a nice theater with 18 screens.

The kart racing track I mentioned on a previous post is only 20 minutes away.

cool_chick 12-13-2005 04:07 PM

Orleans is closest to the strip? How far is it? How do we get there (cabs, or is someone going to take me in their fine vehicle)?
