Dear Slant Sixers,

We will have our winter awards and planning banquet on the weekend of March 3, 2018. This will be at Christine's and my house in Blacksburg, VA. I hope we can have a big turnout of racers, families, and anyone interested in Slant 6 racing!

I posted some hotel info on the old site before it crashed, and I will do so again in a later post. I am working to put up a few folks/families at friends' houses, as well as at our house.

Maybe we will have a bonfire one eve/night if the weather is good for that. There is a garage with tools and toys to enjoy or use. There is plenty of parking. I will be cooking some food, and others are welcome to use the kitchen of course.

Please feel free to call (540-818-8712) or PM me or post here with questions.

Address:
860 Hutcheson Drive (also marked as "Lane" on one end of the block)
Blacksburg, VA 24060

Best wishes and see you in person in March!!

Lou Madsen

Angie and I will probably not be able to attend. Chase will be swimming in the NAIA National Championships in Columbus, GA that weekend.

Just tell him no! A man has to have his priorities! You could be having dinner with Lou! :D :D

Tell Chase good luck! It sounds like an honor for sure.

The boys have been swimming since 2005 and in those 12+ years I have chosen to do "car stuff" in lieu of exactly 4 times. I keep close count. :wink:

This is Chase's last year of college swimming. We missed the first three years because we were stationed in Germany.

Yep, I gots ta have my priorities! :lol:

Glad to hear it, Greg!

There are 5 hotels within 1.5 miles of my house, and many more within about 8 miles, and a bunch more within 12 miles (out on I-81). Orbitz.com is a good way to search these. The Microtel and Super 8 in Christiansburg (7-8 miles) are around $50/nt and are near the main mall and shopping area.

Please ask me if you want help with booking.

Hope we have a big turnout!! We should see some new faces and many old faces too!

Lou

This is the same weekend that travel hockey playoffs start. I will know more in a few days. Depends on when and where the games are scheduled.

Dear all,

I have a good friend who has an "Airbnb" guest room. Excellent reviews, $40/nt, 2 miles from my house.

https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/19507271?s=51

If anyone wants help booking lodging, I am more than happy to help.

All the best,

Lou
