So I managed to talk my dad into making his first tour. What hotel is everyone staying at? I pondered on driving down each day, but the logistics are just too annoying to do that.

Also, will I need to worry about leaving my car on site over night?

Which one is that? I also hear it's worth going downtown at some point. I wonder what plans Lin has made..... :lol:

When David, Jed, and I went to a local last year, we stayed at a place at a pretty decent location a few miles north. I wish I could remember more.

I'm in the Comfort Inn, because the Country Inn was booked. It's literally right beside Country Inn though. It'll be a fun weekend for sure!

Rob, you get the tires? Put the best shoulders outside..don't worry about the center tread.. don't really matter about direction either.

I've never heard anyone else complain, but I felt like that surface was beyond awful. Super bumpy, especially near the bricks. I just knew David's car was going to come apart on me...well it did a couple times but not due to the bumps n' humps. I dunno. Maybe that course just didn't avoid any of the bad stuff every lot has.

Really not sure about driving on that stuff again at a Match tour :?
Jed are you really not coming? It's not going to be that bad.
