April 15, 2016: Watkins Glen Green Grand Prix

[mloveland78]

So, I got the annual christmas card from Bob G. And the site has been updated so its official. Green Grand Prix weekend at the Glen is April 15. So excited, who's in? I will be there with bells on. Have to beat 117mpg from last year.

I'm going to try to make it this year in Ron Burgundy. How do you sign up?

April is so freakin' early! I never have my wish-list of mods done that early in the year. (Though really I should say "that early in the decade".)

I'll consider coming to spectate & socialize, though.

For those who haven't gone - there are tons of interesting vehicles to see, many of them owned by members here. It's a great chance to put faces to the usernames.

Cowmeat: I added links to the GGP site and registration to mloveland's post #1.

Thanks, man!

I couldn't find the price of registration on the site, does anybody know offhand what it runs? Since I'll be driving up from sunny Florida, I'll be staying overnight on Thursday and I need to see what this trip will cost so I can run it by my accountant (wife).

Kind of a bummer about the 50 psi max tire pressure, but then again I'm so lazy about filling them up since I put the moon discs on that half the time I'm at 50 psi anyway. Since I just aired them up a week ago, If I don't air them up again between now and April they should be just about right!

***edit***

Found the price, FYI it's a hundred bucks which covers driver and navigator. It's kind of in fine print on the actual registration form.

I registered just now, so count me in this year!

I'll definitely be there. Maybe as a competitor this time. I'm thinking about entering with my parents' 2008 Prius.

In the past, Bob has offered a bit of a break on the registration fee for EcoModder members. If people want, I can ask if that offer still stands.

[cowmeat]

Sure, if you don't mind! Won't hurt my feelings to save a couple of bucks.

Count me in as a co-driver

Bob says:

We will have some kind of significant discount for EcoModder members…haven’t pounded out the specifics yet, but please spread the word and I’ll let you know about the discount by mid-January. If I don’t please give me a jab..
