Nekocon 2009 race (Hampton, VA)
Hey everyone!
Last year was a lot of fun but since then I have been practicing and am looking forward to racing with you guys again. Of course, I can't promise if you come that you won't "lose to a girl."
Please post here and let me know who would be able and willing to make it. Otherwise I guess I'll be bored and just fall asleep under the tables again.....
-I read some of you guys suggestions, this year if we can get enough track, we will have a seperate track for pro racers (hint-hint, PM me if you can bring some track!)
Here is the info I have:
-Race is free, however, membership to the convention will be $40
-Nekocon is November 6-8, schedule in the works.
-Event will be held at Hampton Convention Center
address- 1610 Coliseum Dr., Hampton, VA 23666
-Convention Hotel Reservation (reduced rate for attendees) click HERE (RESERVE BY OCT. 7)
-Reflex has offered to sponsor the event again and Christian Tabush himself MIGHT be able to attend!
It was a lot of fun last year I hope that even on this delayed startup we can have a great event!

I don't think I am making it to Barcelona this year, so I will consider coming. Sponsorship of the event is a definite. Maybe some of the guys from the NYC area want to come play...

I'm in, but if Neko's big enough I prolly won't be sticking around the track for too long Also, given its an anime con, please include drifting race/time slot/something. I'll expect most of you to bring at least 1 car from Initial D or Wangan Midnight.

I'm down... I can bring track if required, although my cargo space is limited to about 1 WideL's worth with the new sled. (Also depends on how many others from my crew want to attend as well)

Wow! Really? We appreciate Reflex Racings generosity and overall support for the hobby. Brandon (Action B) would be really excited if you could make it. He orders from you frequently and has even talked to you on the phone a few times. His AWD setup is based on your car from your website but hes not as fast as you so maybe you could give him a couple tips lol

Great! I'm really glad you can make it. A wide L would be great. We could set your wide L up for the general attendees and the large track setup could be for the pros. This will ensure everyone gets plenty of practice.

I'm up for a drift session. There will be sufficient practice time for you to get in some drifting for sure. Maybe I'll make an initial D drift car too. I assume you'll bring an FD?

Race info at top updated!
There are several hotels in the area, however, the closest and most convenient is just a short walk away at the Embassy Suites. We get a discounted rate if reserved by October 7th. So don't delay!
I beleive room rate is $134. Those rooms have two beds per and I believe a couch so you should be able to accomodate a few people in each room! Lets get this together and make it a great event!

Besides my game FD and KPG, I'll have plenty by then- Evo 6es, Kei's FD, Ryo's FC, Night Kids R32/Reina's R32, ex-driver europa, "monster machine" Supra, God Foot R34, maybe God Hand S2000, maybe white Testa from Wangan Midnight as well. So the question should be, "what won't you bring?" lol
