Good thing for me that the date did move from the first week in october to November though. Considering my kids b-day is October 2nd, and the anniversary is October 5th, and neice's b-day is October 6th, kind of puts some kinks in the family time with leaving for that week. But if its going to be November 1st, ALL IS WELL in the Liebrandt household.  Putting in my vacation time for that week today at work.

There was a general announcement at the St Louis meet that the Talladega event will indeed happen the weekend of November 1st 2009. No hotel info yet, but it will be coming shortly.

I am sure the Jameson Inn will be one of them. Tim says there is another one that's just opened up in Alex City. He's going to set the blocks of rooms up.

going by previous rules you're welcome everywhere but the parade lap and the group photo. no one's gonna stop you from coming down--there's going to be a quarter million others there for the race, and there's always an extra seat for the parade lap  heck we took a car and I rode with 70Sbird last time!

Cool, the parade lap is the biggie because ,well, I don't need to tell anyone here do I? Now, if I want to drive something on the parade lap that doesn't leave me a whole lot of time to win the lottery. (since that is likely the only way I'll be scoring an aero car within the next year)

A couple of friends from New York flew down and hitched rides--that's who Mom drove around while I was with Scott.
in '99 my sis rode with my friend Steve Kay in his Daytona--
as long as there's a seat I don't think you'll have a problem!

Well if someone needs a ride at the track in '09 I'm sure I'll have some empty seats. I doubt that my wife and son will make the trip. My dad says he wants to go though, but that still leaves plenty of room.

Yep, it's about 60 miles from the hotels north to the track, but it's an easy ride on low travel two lanes through some beautiful countryside skirting the Talladega Mountains. It's a more pleasant ride than fighting the race traffic when we used to come from Birmingham.
