Deal's Gap 2012 - Page 3

swingdancr · 03-19-2012, 07:21 AM

Less than 130 days!!!

Called Fontana and there's still plenty of availability if you want to stay on site. There are lodge rooms, cabins and campsites still open for the full weekend.

jdmmmmx · 03-20-2012, 09:01 PM

I want to go to this!! But where exactly do people meet and what sort of arrangements do I need to make (camping, work, monies, etc.)

Sorry im a noob and cant find the info

DazedAndConfused · 03-20-2012, 09:05 PM

Just pack for camping and show up. Meet and shake hands. Hope someone will let you stay in their cabin and sleep on the floor.........if not...sleep in your car or camp with someone

DazedAndConfused · 03-20-2012, 09:07 PM

another easy way. remove passenger seat and bring a blanket and pillow. Lay the blanket down as a mattress and lean back against the rear wall with a pillow in the corner of the seatbelt tray. sleep in car for the weekend anywhere you want. I did it during H20i. lol

swingdancr · 03-20-2012, 10:18 PM

Just got confirmation of a new vendor this year. Talked to the rep yesterday and they made their reservations at Fontana...

Ohlins USA will be setting up Friday and Saturday.

Keep an eye on the forum. There's plenty of places to stay, and information about the events as they are scheduled.

Bryan · 03-26-2012, 06:21 AM

I might be going. Hey Josh, do you perchance have a couch open?

JB 94 Laguna · 03-26-2012, 10:07 AM

Bryan, I currently have two beds available in the second bedroom of my cabin if need be as well.

DazedAndConfused · 03-26-2012, 10:16 AM

I'm coming to this even if I dont have my miata anymore. Your other half of the bed better be open for me Chris

Tekel · 03-26-2012, 10:16 AM

I attempted to write a joke 3-4 different ways referencing Bryans race, but in the end it made me out like a total douche racist for anyone outside the circle. so I will just post a bunny with a pancake on his head.

I'd rather not commit to a bed right now, as nice as that would be. Don't want to stiff someone if I end up having to stay home with the little guy (who btw just experienced Christmas, his birthday, and New Years combined over the weekend without knowing it thanks to our friends that threw my wife a baby shower at work and at church

).

Technically, I'm one of like 3 Black guys that show up that weekend (or at least I would be if Peter could get Richard to show up again...That dude is COOL). I, however am the only one who wears a pink shirt on Saturday

This would have been all you needed to post, tho:

I'm in the same position as last year, a cabin with a kitchen is only $15 more per night than an Inn Room so it makes more sense for me to go that route. Some of the people that were in our group haven't returned the e-mails I sent offering, so I'm not actively trying to fill the room. It's there if you want it, and I'll let you know if the situation changes.

You sold the miata??? I'm sure Chris would definitley let you sleep in his tent with him.

DazedAndConfused · 03-27-2012, 03:44 PM

bahaha. havn't sold it yet, but it might be sold before MATG. If I don't sell it, it will probably become a nonstreet legal track car.

blu92 · 03-27-2012, 07:37 PM

Didn't you have an NA too?

I like to sleep naked and tend to cuddle. hope you dont mind

blu92 · 03-28-2012, 10:03 PM

I know how that is...student loans suck and it takes way too long for them to go away.

swingdancr · 04-02-2012, 09:40 PM

Sure Bryan, you can have the couch. Crabby will testify that it's comfy....

RabiaEx · 04-03-2012, 09:21 PM

I'm most likely coming to this with my dad. But one thing I need to know is, how are the runs organized?

I still have to get back to Chris, as I normally room with him and Steve (and Britt now). I'll let you know.

Considering Peter won't be driving a Miata this year for the first time in like a decade, feel free to bring the MZ2. I considered driving my daddywagon just to get a laugh out of people

(for the record, the one time my wife came, we had to drive her 2005 Altima...I nicknamed it Moby Dick)

JB 94 Laguna · 04-05-2012, 10:14 AM

I remember when they launched the NC seeing the whole Mazda fleet traversing the Gap that year and parked at The Crossroads.
