Since I am new here and am on http://www.focusfanatics.com/ forum to.

They have just started to plan this it is located in Centerville, Arkansas. I don't know if any of you have ever gone to this but I thought it looked like fun and a nice road trip.

I figure its about a 12hr drive from St.Paul-Minneapolis.

If anybody interested it would be awesome to get a Line of cars and go down there!!

There is also Camping avaiable! Camping info below..

I'm planning on it. Got a room reserved at the HIN. After that I'm head to Baton Rouge to visit with family. Works out.

jetfest is not happening this year.
The g2g's will be alternated between focusfest and jetfest every other year (focusfest may become yearly tho, I'm already in the works for 09).
This is the first focusfest sponsored by focusfanatics (actually the site owner is footing this out of his own pocket).
Focusfest will become a yearly g2g depending on how the first goes.
Other things are being looked into and possibly secured for the fest at this time (activity wise).
If anyone has questions feel free to ask me, or post them up here or on ff. I'll be glad to answer.
There is also a caravan thread on ff. so far in our areas there are 2 going, one on I35 to kansas city and the other is I29 to kansas city. it looks like caravans will be banding together at that point then taking hwy 71 south to the fest.

If the mods here don't mind, I can post up links and other info if needed.

Yeah, I know it won't be till May before I can even start getting it together. I have to sell off all this stuff I have...(inside joke to myself). I'll be begging for help when the time comes. Bolt off...bolt on. Guess we'll see what gets done.

I may be able to do it but it'll be a slim chance, I'd make more effort if it was a road course instead of a dragstrip.

SVT + Dragstrip = no good.
