Pikes Peak International Hill Climb - Race to the Clouds - 25 June 2005!!
Here's the deal:
24 June -
3 pm: Arrive - Gather and camp out in the Garden of the Gods campsite area.
7 pm: Dinner - Full course meals of ribs, sides, drinks and deserts.
~10 pm: Crash out for 5-hour sleep (keep reading... :-laf )
25 June -
3 am: Start Engines: As quietly as possible, cruise out of campground and head up the 5-mile stretch to the Pikes Peak Highway entrance, and get in line.
4 am: Gates open. Head up to one of several possible sites, and shut 'em down. Tentatively looking at Glen Cove. Go mark our spots for the race, and cat-nap in the rigs until breakfast. ATV's allowed, and I'll have mine for moving gear, chairs, etc. Could use a few more.
7 am: Breakfast and coffee - Breakfast burrito chow-fest. Full breakfast and drinks.
10 am: Race starts.
4 pm: Race ends. Compeditors parade down the mountain. Gather gear, chairs, etc, load the rigs, and head down.
Camping: $28/nite for 2 people (one 'tent'). I have 10 campsites earmarked already - I just have to tell the man 'we'll take 'em!". The number of sites is dependent on how many RSVP's I get. I have to know soon and the RSVP's have to be serious.
Race tickets: $35, $40 day of race. I can get them all in advance based on RSVP's. Send me a check or bring cash - it's all good, just be there .
Lots of details to come - mostly logistics, maps, etc. All I need at this point is a 'yae' or 'nae'... actually all I need is 'yae's' :-laf . If you haven't seen the Hill Climb, well, it's fantastic, and at times completely breathtaking, especially at Glen Cove. The camping beforehand is just a fun way to gather and goof off, eat good foor, meet and greet friends, and basically have a good time.
This event will be run jointly with the Southern Colorado Mopars car club as well as the Ramcharger Central Club of Colorado - all car and truck fans, and all Mopar. I would like to keep it open for friends/family as you'd like to do - it's all good, but these three clubs are the main players.
So lemme hear ya and send me the RSVP's. I'm fairly sure the 10 campsites will fill up fast, and I can get more as needed. Cool deal - see you on the Mountain!

Graduated from Manitou Springs and was shocked that the museum is out of business. Did they move the date because of the indy car or did Nick Sanborn die?
