Maybe we should do a Rogue reunion at the 2017 Kenosha Meet?  It will be the 50 year Anniversary of the 1967 Rogue.
Can you say 4 speeds?

If the German and the crazy Canadians are coming, count me in. The German and the crazy Canucks know who they are.

Tony, what is the harborside? Sounds like a bad experience? Thanks, Patrick
I had reservations at the BW Harborside a year in advance and they cancelled them on me 2 weeks before I was leaving to get there. "Renovations weren't completed". I heard they had corporate reservations they HAD to honor so thye just killed all of us like we were nothing. Meant I had to scramble for a room  that was a 15 minute drive away instead of right downtown where everything was going on. BRUTAL customer service...

Executive Inn again Tony?  
Wasnt a bad Place, maybe a bit off the city but the Parkinglot Gatherings were great. Wink

I will certainly come again, dunno now how i organize the trip, just fly to chicago or do an roadtrip again.

Tony, thanks for the heads up. That is terrible customer service. Is there normally a host hotel for the event?

There are numerous hotels listed, there were a lot of AMC folks left scrambling that's for sure.
 
Holger, I would probably do the executive again but it's expensive for such an old hotel. The parking lot was a lot of fun but it was also a LONG way from downtown and the showfield.

I think the hotels are getting wise to how big these shows are getting.  I heard a lot of stories about how much more the hotels were charging in 2014 versus 2011.  We stayed at the BW Executive Inn in 2011 and IIRC paid about 80 dollars a night.  2014 they were getting like 125.  We stayed at the Laquinta and paid like 85 a night.  Older hotel, but clean and safe.  Most of the hotels are centered in that area, looks like there is a new Hampton Inn out there now too.  Lots of good restaurants out there as well.

It's really only about a 15-20 minute drive to most of the activities.  I think I put about 150 miles on the Rogue in the four days we were there.  It was fun to get it out and drive it that much.

What's the matter, Tony, are you afraid to drive your car?  Big smile

I bet I put at least that many miles on the AMX. I actually had to fill it up before I even left! I think quite a few of my miles were sideways so they might not count on the odometer correctly!
 
It's funny, I don't think I've seen pictures of your trailer princess at the racetrack...Tongue
