The hotel reservation is made.

As of now, it is for one room with two beds. We will have the Aero bed also... seating four people for comfortable sleep.

If Mike and Charlie are definite, I may have to reserve another room.

Days Inn Capital Beltway
55 Hampton Park Blvd
Capital Heights MD 20743

$79/night for double beds - 2 miles from FedEx Feild!

I booked a room Sat night at the same hotel :D

For those of you who are cheap like me :wink: , you can get the double bed room for $65 a night threw Orbitz.com. I dont know if they are the same as the rooms Andy is getting, but there a little cheaper.

If you're not too beat on Saturday night, Drew, we should all do dinner! It could be something as easy as ordering pizza to the pool of the hotel. That seemed to be our favorite down in Miami! We did it two nights in a row=)

I started putting together the sticker run (FINALLLLY!!!) yesterday.
It's going to be a complex run... both plotted stixors, and printed vinyl... so I have to get everything just right. I should have it to them tomorrow or Thursday. Normally I would just make two runs... but with going to Raleigh, aaand trying to get my limited slip built and installed... time will be short leading up to DriftShowoff.

Once we get back from Maryland I want to do another run for my roll call and windshield banner so I can have it before the rallycross in TN!


lol i looked up a pod light set up from Hella as well..... Not going to get it, but it's fun to dream about. It's really not all that expensive. Maybe in another year or so once I'm [hopefully] rallying more.
