• We recommend calling the hotels directly versus using the 1-800 number or booking online because the actual hotel knows the group better than the national number or online system.
• Anybody that does not need a double room, please leave for the folks that do. They are all the same price and you actually have more room in the King vs. the Double Bed rooms. Also, many of the King rooms have a sofa with a pull-out bed in it.
• There are many room variations at BOTH locations, ask them what is available for each night of stay for the number of people you are bringing.

Bring DAD and the rest of the family for the weekend and have some fun!!! Plenty for the entire family to enjoy.

I know a lot of folks here may have never heard of the Central Ohio Spring LX Meet & Greet. Although it says Central Ohio, it is open to anybody with an LX that would like to attend. It is primarily an LX event but each year we have opened it up to different Mopar owners. The 2007 event which was host to 100 LX owners, 15 Vipers, 10 SRT4's, 2 Jeep SRT's and a 12-second Dodge Caravan.

If anybody has any questions please let me know. For 2008, we have expanded the 1-day event into a 2-day event which will include a drag race competition and show & shine competition with many prizes. All prizes provided by your favorite forum supporting vendors that you have gotten to know very well over the years. I know it seems like it is so far away but spring will be here again before you know it. This will definitely be one of THE EVENTS to attend in 2008.

Just wanted to share this info in case anybody is interested.

Look forward to seeing all of you!

Why should I pre-register for the event?

• It shows our sponsors (potential sponsors) the importance for them to attend/support the event.
• Drag Race participants will be assigned entry numbers based on registration. Lower entry numbers get lane preference.
• NO Car Show entries at the gate. MUST pre-register to enter.
• ONLY pre-registered entries will be eligible to win door prizes.
• Minimize time spent waiting in line to check-in at the event.
• Gate Fee MAY increase for entries at the gate.

***Deadline to pre-register is April 30, 2008***

Explanation of Gate Fees. (There still seems to be some confusion......)

3 MONTHS TO GO!!!!!!!

As of this evening there are only 90 days remaining until the start of the
2008 LX & Beyond Nationals.

We have no doubt this will be THE BIGGEST LX EVENT OF THE YEAR.

There are a lot of folks checking in on the thread that have not even signed up onto the forum.

Don't forget lane preference given to lowest entry number, and you MUST be pre-registered to be eligible for drawings/giveaway and to enter the car show!!!

Is it June yet?

What that is folks is a Nostalgic Top Fuel Dragster, the motor is a 392 Old School HEMI Motor that is now 400 Cubic Inches, it is blown, fuel injected and has a direct drive (no transmission). It makes around 3,000 Horse Power and has run 6.50 @ 215 mph.

We are coming and we are coming LOUD & LARGE.............

We hope to see you there
