NO BOXES...Drive 'em!! They HAVE to be in at least as good of shape as mine. Although, I do need to get those trailing arms on. .. Four wheel steer is a B*TCH! 
We'll be booking room tomorrow.

Sorry guys but the blacray isn't geared for 10.5 hour trips. Likewise my wife and I require more creature comforts than that. We could drive the C5 but we want to try and blend in with the nice Stingrays... 
Soon as I can we will look at booking a room. Great job on the resort research guys! Thanks for lookin out for the rest of us! THNXZ!!!!Tuxblacray 2007-11-05 04:22:05

I screamed the 77 back from Bowling Green at 3500 to 4000 rpms . I don't mind the short hops but same here with the long hauls.
We go to several of these a year and plan on keeping these two cars for years to come. If a trailer trip now and then helps keep a few miles off and a little wear and tear to a minimum ,I see no problem with it. We drive our several miles a year and somewhere almost every week it seems. Ask the guys at Bowling Green that got covered with road tar if the would have liked to be in a box that day.
end of hijack...
See you all in Hot Springs
The black road tar was a temporary drag ... but it all came off thanks to some elbow grease and WD40 !!
Looking forward to the trip and the event. Looks like a great location.
Thanks to everyone for the research and planning.
Ok, just got booked (at the hotel, not in jail 
). Are we there yet???

OK which moderator or Adam wants to start a list of people that are actually going and have a room booked somewhere, this might help with the signups!

[QUOTE=Tuxblacray]Do you think they will have a problem with trailers in their lot? I am currently looking at putting the Blacray into a box and draggin him behind the truck. [/quote]
There is a trailer in one of the parking lot pictures I took, so I do not believe that there will be a problem with car hauler trailers. Also they have a boat ramp for guest, so I know that parking boat trailers is not a problem! I hope this info helps!

DaveM and I are booked at the Official C3VR Resort Hotel.
And yes, I may be sleeping on the balcony.
Or in one of the many enclosed trailers that will be available.
