Monterey / Laguna Seca / Historics

[IRON-E]

Looking forward to checking it out this weekend, just hoping it'll still be entertaining.

Dorkfest & track event.

I'll be there this weekend too. Was going to go today but missed it this morning

I just read in the Norcal chat, that Wheelhop & Bimmerman will be at Laguna Seca, so I'm down to meet for a sesh.... ;D

No way Motel 6 for a grand.....nah get out of here

Same thing I said "motel 6 WTF?"

I was up there last Saturday and we were going to stay with a few friends who had rented a house, but they wanted $150/head (there was 3 of us). It was more than I was willing to spend to share a bed with my brother, and my buddy would've had a couch to sleep on.

NO THANKS

We drove up another hour to my parents place where my parents had a bed for each of us, my mom had cooked dinner AND a bomb breakfast. Feeling good about my decision.

That's not so bad. My hotel wants $700+ a night, good thing we booked 8 months ago before the price hike :)

I was booking hotels this afternoon for thurs-sat, and there are plenty of places in monterey near laguna seca that are ~$140 range. Not sure what kind of place charges $700....

not sure if it's close to the other O fest activities, but it's super close to the racetrack!

^rates are down this week because the auctions, concours, and vintage races are over, and most of those cars/people the cars are gone. Most of the Octoberfest people are staying at the Hyatt.

wonder if you can register for the auto cross the day of instead of paying that $65 fee for the week

From what I read it seems like there is a registration before the AutoX. SAT is for non M cars, SUN is for M cars.

You're right, rates were up last weekend when I was also here (at the Hyatt).

Going on the 17 mile drive tomorrow ~1pm with the Dorkfest guys (M Coupes), if anyone wants join us I'm sure you'd be welcome.

Stupid question, but what is this "Dorkfest" people keep referencing??
