    I'll be there all week... the meet at Hard Rock last year was kinda chaotic... maybe a set time at the Hard Rock bar on Thursday night would be better? Or perhaps something at American Racing's booth on Thursday would be ideal?

    Cant do anything on Thursday- I have a seminar I am speaking at in the morning (Supercharge your Backyard Business Thursday 8:30-10am-shameless plug added!) & the SEMA banquet to attend at night.

    How about Wednesday around 9pm ? Same time as last year but not the same place at the HArd Rock cuz it was too hectic there. Ill start thinking of some good place where the bar is a bit empty-
    I know there is an outside bar at Ceasar's thats pretty cool and right near the monorail stop- AND it usually pretty empty.

    Just a thought.

    it would be good to know when the other private parties or places are also being used. I know last year on Tuesday(?) I think it was, we tried ot go to the Harley restaurant and it was a private affair too and there wasnt any notice saying theywould be closed ti the public on the day before when we went by.

    As usual, we'll be there for the whole magilla. We're trying to control costs this year so we are staying at the Silverton, just outside of town, rather than at the Monte Carlo where we usually stay.

    Anyway, I'm in for a HAMB meet that isn't at the Hard Rock! Too freaking noisy to hold any type of a meet-and-greet! I'm thinking one of the smaller bars at the Hilton right after the show closes at 5:00PM. They are usually lightly populated so that would be good for a meeting place. Also, as it is at the close of the show, all you have to do is get yourself over to the Hilton which is literally right next door.

    Just a suggestion.

    PS to Lenny - Sorry I never got to your booth at Syracuse this year. Just a bad year for me - too much heat made me feel like shit.

    So, has anybody got a suggestion as to where to meet? No response to my earlier suggestion, so where will it be.

    PS-Lenny, if you want I'd be glad to meet you wherever and buy some cold ones to sip while we yack.

    I'll be working my tail off and was dreading it, but now I'm pumped about a possible meet up. Anyone for rental car donut competition?

    I'll be going, first time, sounds like a blast, might even have to dress in some respectable clothing to impress somone who wants to give me an obscene line of credit to start a Rod Shop! Staying downtown at the Boulder station, anyone know anything about it?? All I want to do is crash there, I'm told it's 18 miles of aisles!! Bldg 2 is the place to be??? Advice cheerfully accepted...thanks...:D
