http://www.contour.org/branch/Nat2002/ Here it is everyone. We have put a lot of effort and thought into all the events. It's going to be a BLAST for everyone. For those of you not making it to Spring Zing, here is your chance to participate in the gathering in Dallas, Texas!!!
<-- Begins collecting quarters
w00t!! Now if I could get my wife to make up her mind if she wants to go or not
Help me with ideas to convince her. She already thinks she'd like to live in Dallas and I'm using the "you can see if you really like it there" argument.

Help me with ideas to convince her. She already thinks she'd like to live in Dallas and I'm using the "you can see if you really like it there" argument.We do have some alternative options for non car people. Plus if you stay @ the hotel you will be really close to an awesome mall. Tell her you will take her there and buy her something from Tiffany's
There is plenty to do here. So please encourage her to come. You can have her PM me if you want.

I think my wife and kids are coming down after the meet.
My mother lives in Ft. Worth, so I'm planning to get the tribe down on Sunday or Monday for a few days. Probably fly them down as wifey wouldn't dream of a 750 mile drive, with just the kids.

I'm fast becoming a thorn in your side, Chris
I have another question regarding registration. What is the cutoff date? I ask because I'm still uncertain about my wife's ability to make the trip. She has her resume out to a couple companies right now that
seem interested and I don't want to register her and then have her not be able to make it, thus wasting my $35.
The cut off date is two weeks before the event, Friday June 14th, 2002. Of course we would like everyone to register sooner rather than later (its just easier) but you still have plenty of time.
BTW- I found a little something you could possibly bribe your wife with in case of emergency
a day spa or maybe just a massage or something. The spa is very close to all activities and across the street from the mall I mentioned earlier. Wish you wife good luck on the job search for us.
Thanks Mushu
The bribing is pretty much in the bag. If she hasn't landed a job, she'll most likely be going. Not bad considering I just mentioned this to her last week
Thanks for the info. I'd register today if I had a definite answer on her job situation, but I gotta hold out a little while.
been taking care of.
paid thru paypal.
Done: 4/29/02
may1st
Just registered. Will I get the long distance award?
about 1150 miles
Need to represent the Vortech against all these Turbos
I think there might be someone from Canada coming?? If not, 1150 miles is a long way. Surely in the running.

I won't go if Simon goes! [/b]Well I guess you are not coming because I took Simon's registration myself. We will miss you
but be sure to send Megan!
and send my champagne with her. Thanx!
Well, putting the check in the mail today.
Just wondering if you have the location/phone number for the specific La Quinta we're going to be staying at? I don't register over the internet and I've had nothing but bad luck with nationwide hotel registering...
Thank you!
James... I will get you that info in the AM. I go bed now!
So sorry for the delay. I could not find the info I had. It was hanging out in Chris's trunk.
The local # is 214-361-8200. PM me if you have any problems or need anything.
Anyone want to split a double room. I'll be staying there Thursday night thru Sunday night.
Also, What is the address of the La Quinta. I typed in Dallas and there are like 10 of them. Maybe I missed it in another post.
Thanks.
10001 North Central Expressway
Dallas, Texas 75231
214-361-8200
BE sure to say you are with the CEG (Contour Enthusiast National Meet) Very Important!!!!!!
FYI- This is a really nice La Quinta. Its a La Quinta Inns & Suites instead of the regular La Quintas. I thinks thats why there is no Denny's there. The manager gave us a "tour" (get it... bad pun) the rooms are really nice & it has a really cool pool. Be sure and bring swimsiuts!
So if I bring my friend, my gf, and his fiancee do they all have to register as well? I know my friend wants to go but I doubt the girls we'll be hanging around for everything. I figure my buddy WILL need to register but not sure about the girls.
And what is the registration fee paying for exactly? I assume various costs incurred for planning something like this but I'm still curious.
Thanks
ok guy time to fuel up and coming to texas from some cold beer and good bbq!!!!!!!
Friday night well be a blast getting on the 1/4 mile and too see who can put up the fastest time. A show and go on sat. nite at keller. Believe me you want be let down none. so pack your bags and get your bun here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yeah, what chris_svt said
Oh don't worry...I was one of the first to register. And I didn't even know if I would be able to go or not.
How's that for CEG spirit?! I'm just curious about the other things.
BTW...
I OWN page two!!!
The registration will be paying for two meals & various other goodies. We can't give it all away. We do want some suprises for those who make it out.

ThanksIf they are planning on coming to anything Saturday they need to register. Activities on Friday can be a spectator event as they are not a "paid" event. Meaning whom ever comes pays for themselves (we do not pay).
Thanks!
Thats what I was looking for!
I love surprises!
Just Registered.............Dallas here we come!
Put my money in. Can't wait!!!
Register now for the National Meet!!
There is too much procrastination going on in here, let's get moving.

Hurry and register, time is running out.

We have about 35 people registered so far. That doesn't include the rest of the Texas people so far. We are hoping to have around 50 total.
One more day!!
Registered tonight! There should be two, one for myself, one for my wife. It's a long weekend trip for us!
woohoo keep those registrations coming.

Not everyone. We only have 15 spots available. You have one of them. See you next week!!
Hotel Registration;
Do we have a certain number of rooms reserved for us or should I get a reservation as soon as possible?? Thanks.

Yes, a certain number of rooms in the block. You have until this Thursday before the rest of the rooms get taken away and you lose the discount.
Make sure you say this is for the CEG National Meet. If they give you some flak about it, say the General Manager knows about it.
I was able to get the double at $59 with the AAA rate. I'm sure there are probably even cheaper choices as well. I'm pretty sure the rate is pretty safe now.

W3rd Page 3 Own3d.
Ed, I'm driving straight through, so that'll put me on your doorstep around mid afternoon Tues, depending on how many naps I need.
Wont be able to make it
Car running like crap + Check Engine light today + 1150 mile drive = no National Meet for me.
Guess the Vortech vs. Turbo battle will have to wait.
This sucks
You all have fun
You can still come & have everyone here work on your car
or you can do
this! If you do we live 2 blocks from there so we could easily get you.
Too bad 2000SVTFlyboy is leaving early.
you only live 200 miles apart.
We really hope things change & you can make it.
Anyone have any ideas? Anyone?
I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

DOH!!

When is the registered list going to come out?
Only five days left!
You mean you don't like suprises? I'll see what I can do when I can get on Chris's computer. I don't have any national Meet stuff on mine.
Look for all final info by tomorrow evening (I hope
). We should be sending everyone an email & we will post it as well.
Thanks again for bringing the most people! You rock!
