Snowshoe Hillclimb - Chris - 08-11-2004
I just got this email from NASA-SE regarding a really fun event. This may be little far from JMU, but it sounds like one hell of a weekend! Lets discuss this and see who would be interested. We'll prob have to pay for lodging, but that can be figured out at a later date. Check it out:
-----
We have an exciting NEW event over Labor Day weekend, September 4-5, 2004 at a beautiful place called Snowshoe Mountain Resort. It is the Snowshoe Hillclimb Presented by Budweiser!
We will be holding a hillclimb time trial of high speed racing up Snowshoe Mountain on a public road. Budweiser and Snowshoe Mountain have given us $5,000.00 to give away to the winners, and we have designated $1,000 to be given to the fastest car up the mountain!! We will split the remainder of the purse amongst the race classes.
This will be a fun filled event with raffles, bands, parties and lots of exciting racing. It is open to all racers and HPDE students who have rollover protection and a fireproof race suit. The road will be closed to traffic and all entrants will race one at a time up the mountain against the clock, fastest one wins the grand prize or their class prize.
We will start the weekend by holding a block party in beautiful downtown Snowshoe Resort where we will be teching cars, holding registration, meeting spectators and having an all around fun time! We then start the day on Saturday with an All Hands Meeting and begin timed runs with a parade of racecars from the paddock down the mountain to the starting grid. Racing will continue all day with racers running up the mountain and back down again when we open the road for the parade and the spectator shuttles.
At the end of the day on Saturday we will be holding another party in beautiful downtown Snowshoe Resort and raffling off assorted prizes from our sponsors.
Racing will resume Sunday morning after the All Hand Meeting and contniue all day until 4pm when we will hand out the awards at yet another block party in downtown Snowshoe Resort! It is truly a fun filled weekend, bring the whole family and enjoy some phenomenal racing and great celebrations!
We will be announcing great deals on lodging and more details over the next few weeks, stay tuned for more. You don't want to miss the opportunity to drive and/or watch this inaugural event as it promises to be a tremendous experience!

I've got a fairly large 10 person tent that I may be willing to allow select people to crash in if I go.
