Topic: NOLA 2018
Hey there fellow Lemonites.
Our team was discussing the NOLA race and what else we could do to make it an awesome week. We enjoyed our last trip to NOLA so much that we thought we could maybe add a few days to the race weekend and imbibe in the Big Easy for a day or two. Biggest problem is leaving all of that baggage called your "car and trailer" somewhere safe.
I am in conversation with Dana at the NOLA Motorsports Park concerning storage of vehicles (race rigs, etc.) before and after the race to possibly allow you to extend your stay. If there is interest I will get back with her with a rough quantity so she can shoot us a price per night. She said they have 24 hour security there and would be willing to work with us.
Here are some ideas we had:
Thursday April 5 - Lemons Golf Outing across the street from the track at TPC golf course (Note: I am slightly better at golf than I am at cricket or polo of which I have never played. But golf is fun anyway...)
Monday April 9 - Maybe a get together in NOLA somewhere for a bunch of Lemons folks (or Sunday pm?)
Dana at the track also mentioned that she has a connection to offer swamp and airboat tours if you folks are interested. Whoo hoo!
As with all other races we end up being completely wiped by Sunday evening and do not look forward to a long drive. We end up burning a day a vacation to be safe.
Talk it up.Let me know what you think.
