Thread: The OFFICIAL 2011 Nissan/Infiniti/Datsun National Convention

There's actually a Holiday Inn that I've stayed at near the track in Vineland. It's a little "out of the way" but has a bunch of shopping, food joints, and other stuff around it and even technically within walking distance for anyone that wants to do heavy drinking. I don't recall a restaurant/bar on the premises but, for a track weekend, we're always leaving super early and returning super late so I might've just missed it. There's a good deal of parking for trailers too so it'd be pretty good. I've just stayed at the other place so many times recently that was the only one on my radar and I asked them while we were there.

The Holiday Inn is probably a better hotel than the Country Inn as well. So... if you could find out rates for the Vineland location, that'd be great

Once these hotels get wind of the convention,especially the one closest to the hotel,room prices will go up and availability will go down,IMO

I havent registered,but it would help to know where everyone is staying so I can to try to get a room by the sr guys.
I am still working out the details.
I am not sure if I am gonna tow a car up or fly up or what.Gotta figure out the costs comparatively.
My brother is in VA and I want to visit him too...try to get his wifes 2010 Maxima away from her,too.

Yeah, once the 15-20 hotels "near" the track get wind of the 10 rooms we will need, prices will go through the roof! I'm still not sure what all the guys wanting to reserve hotel rooms but not yet registered plan to do with all of these rooms?

Just registered! I'll be there with the b13 and the p10. I'll sign up for the track out of my next check or when someone buys all the stuff i have for sale lol.

Thats pretty funny,Mr grumpypants(love that by the way)
I thought there was only one hotel near the track? Maybe I read it wrong.

Anyway,I like your sarcasm,and I get your point.
Isnt this a Nissan/Infinity National meet? ...and there are only 10 people registered so far?? Or are you talking 10 people registered for the track day? 10 sr20 owners.what?
Surely there will be some Z cars,g35s and datsuns showing up
I am poor compared to alot of you and I'll be damned if I an gonna travel 16 hours,take a week off work to go see 10 cars race around the track.
I am trying like hell to sell what I can and make plans,but with no hotel info its hard to do.

I'll call my guy today and have him start working it. More to follow

I wanna sleep wherever cliff is that way ill be protected by Americas best

Lmao

Cliff better get a king size.

That's what my wife calls me and it stuck. I am grumpy half the time so she's right




There are zero MAJOR hotels near the track. There's the Holiday Inn which I forgot about but, other than that, there are no preferred Embassy Suites or Marriot or the like



Thanks... mostly it's lost on people :P



SUPPOSED to be a national meet. Oh, and it's Infinit***I***

I need to update the counts this weekend but I believe there are only about 20-25 or so people registered for the track event and maybe another 5-10 registered for the convention in general (but not doing the track event) My point was moreso that there are a LOT of people filling in the "feedback" form on the website stating that they are interested in attending the carshow or the convention in general and none are actually registering. Lots of talk... very little action. I understand people wanting to wait and all but it's a luxury *I* cannot afford especially being on the hook personally for a large sum of money for the track reservation.



I had hoped but registration and interest on those fronts has been VERY weak especially considering the numbers they have as compared to our (diminishing) SE-R crowd



Understood. Trust me, most of us here are poor in some way, shape, or form. We all like to complain about our own individual situation but we're all poor and that's why we own an SE-R. I don't know of anyone around that has the SE-R on the side while owning an F430 or a GTR or something of the like



Hopefully Cliff can get something for that Holiday Inn. If not, the Country Inn is definitely decent. They just wouldn't give me a discount based on the numbers I'm seeing right now. I can't tell them that we'll need 40 rooms when we don't even have 40 people registered And I'm assuming 75% or so of the attendees would double up on rooms
