Lightbulb Viva Las Vegas - Gathering West - 26-28 Sept 2008

OK...it's official. There will be a Gathering West in Las Vegas! WooHoo!

26-28 September 2008, Las Vegas, NV


Events will include:

26 Sep - Drag Racing at LVMS

27 Sep - Mile Run at Nellis AFB

28 Sep - AutoCross at Nellis AFB

Also included will be two "spirited" cruises...once again through the Valley of Fire and another TBD (If you have an idea about where we should cruise to...speak up!)

If there is interest...we can do Karting one evening...or a Private Poker Party (just for us). I wanna know if there's interest in this stuff.

If time permits...maybe we can fit a Poker Run in...

Many nice dinners and plently of time to chat and a few short technical discussions .

An idea I had was to "give away" (via free drawings/raffles) some ZR-1 stuff...any ideas about what you'd like to see as prizes?

Ron Hanselman and I are heading up this effort and if you have some specific input...tell us!

OK Y'ALL GIVE US YOUR INPUT! We'll make it a Gathering to Remember!

Hey, I'd be willing to get the poker run together.

If Jeff doesn't have my parts done before then, we could have a technical gathering to install them!

FYI, last time I cruised through Red Rock Canyon, there were LOTS of park police to pull over vehicles. Not advised to cruise there.

Ken let's let some of the members weigh in and see if there is enough interest in the Poker Run. I am in if we have it. I like them.

I alos like the idea of our own private poker party...that would be fun!

If Uly will provide all his cash to play poker, I can hardly wait!

Uly and Ron,

The dates and events sound great to me, especially the Mile Shootout on a Sat as some folks will have to hit the road on Sunday. Will MKM be putting on the Shootout and will the safety requirements be ironed out soon as possible, like two months prior?

Thanks to both of you for stepping up to the plate.

Jerry

I missed the first 2 so I better commit to this one. It sounds like I really did miss a good time. I make it to Las Vegas about 3 times a year to check on the in laws who are in their 80s. I do my Carlos the gardner impersonation and some chores around the house. Since it's a quick trip, we don't have time to hit the strip or go out... so sad. I will have to be very specific regarding the purpose of this trip. I suspect my wife will want to spend time with her folks and I'll get to play.

I would like to do the go-karts if we have the time.
