Ladies and Gentlemen,

We had a very productive meeting this afternoon in Columbus about the LX & Beyond Nationals event in which all facets of the event were very well represented (Drag folk, M&G folk, carshow folk, vendor folk, multi-forum membership and general fun factor folk). I know I promised you hotel info Sunday but I am going to need another 1-2 weeks to run some new details by the hotels and the track before I give you those details. Don't worry, there is plenty of time to book those hotel rooms.

I will be posting many details very soon for everyone within the next 2 weeks. Book your plane tickets, and get your winter mods done ASAP so you are ready to roll to Columbus on June 14-15!!!

First, I want to thank everyone for the TREMENDOUS feedback and excitement surrounding the event. Your enthusiasm and ideas is what's driving us to make this THE LX EVENT of the year, PLEASE KEEP THE IDEAS AND SUGGESTIONS COMING!!! Without each and every one of you the event could not happen.

I can't let all the cats out of the bag, but you don't want to miss out on this one. Even if its only for 1 of the 2 days you will definitely want to be in Columbus in June. As Chuck has mentioned we are positively turning the fire up on this event. Many vendors have committed to supporting the event (some I can not list due to not forum vendors) and we are very happy that they too are as excited as we are about the event. If you don't see your favorite vendor or forum member on the guest list, send them the link to this thread and tell them they need to get to Columbus in June.

Due to the support of the forum vendors and the HUGE response from the many, many members of various LX forums we are going to exceed the space allotment at Quaker Steak & Lube restaurant and officially announcing that we are going to hold BOTH days of the 2008 LX & Beyond Nationals at National Trail Raceway!!! This will give those of you planning to compete in the drag races more time on the track and those attending for the carshow and meet & greet more space to comfortably spread out.

No changes to the hotels, they are only about 30 minutes from the track and as mentioned before you should be pleased with the Polaris area and hotel accommodations. With the addition of the 2nd day at the track we need to tweak the schedule a bit but will be releasing the schedule and entry fees very soon. The gate at the track will very likely open at 8am on Saturday, June 14.

Stay tuned to post #1-2-3 for updates!!!
