2023 TriFive Nationals Info and Countdown (8th Annual)

Thanks Eldon!

I missed this years and have told the wife. I am going next year Period!

Ya gotta park by us when you're not running down the track!

That's the plan. Looking forward to seeing everyone next year.

Haven't missed one yet & already paid for 2023.
We always have GREAT TIME! & it wasn't as HOT & sticky this year.

FYI, I just looked at Holiday Inn on Wilkinson (sort-of host hotel) AND ITS ALREADY SOLD OUT.....

That is the one thing I think I am going to change for next year. The host hotel would not book us at the show rate so we paid the regular rate. i think I am go8ng to look for something a little less that can accommodate the car trailer.

Did anyone hear the final number of entries?
I only heard 25__, thot he said 2545?

the hampton inn by 65 is very accommodating

We heard 2554 as the final #

Speaking of Hotels: Does anyone have a favorite HOTEL that they stayed in this year, that they would RECOMMEND for next year's event? What was their rate? What was bad or good about that hotel? I've generally stayed at the Drury which is pretty good, but their rate this year was $199/night... I don't know about you fellas but when it begins hitting at $200/nite, I'm looking somewhere else!

I'm afraid if the hotel rates continue climbing until we all say STOP... that the event will fold!

Ronny and I stayed at the Sleep Inn at 554 Corvette Drive (right around the corner from the Corvette plant). It was clean, closer to Beech Bend than Holiday Inn, and it was $457 for 4 nights. Trailer parking was tough, but there was good well lit parking, free breakfast, and it smelled clean. I will post up a link to the local hotels in the first post.

I just reserved at the Drury... cheaper now than later (reserved with cancellation privilege)...

Do they have decent trailer parking there?

Eldon this year they did allow trailer parking in the grass unlike last year when they didn't we stayed there both last year & again this year very clean & accommodating. I just checked & they are sold out on the 09-12 as of now at least on they're web site.

Heard there may be a new host hotel for 2023. Holiday inn hasn't been for the last two years; though we stayed there.

Ohhh.... that would be nice, not sure if there are any larger parking footprint than Holiday Inn though.
