Hey everyone!
We are now in the late stages of planning the 2nd Annual Mach 1 Roundup, to be held July 25-27, 2005 in Northern California. We'll be starting in Sunnyvale, CA and work our way up to Willows, CA for a track day at Thunderhill Raceway. Last year the convention was held in Las Vegas and we people drive from as far as Canada and the east coast! It was definitely a blast, but this year we're working hard to fix the small bugs we had, and to make it twice as fun.
Everytime new information comes along, I will edit the post. I'll be sure to stay on top of everything that comes along, that way everyone is up to date and there is the least amount of confusion possible. If you have any questions PLEASE feel free to PM me or MIB, as we are the ones organizing this event!
So with that, here is a preliminary schedule of events. Keep in mind this is PRELIMINARY and details such as times and costs are still being worked out.
Registration will be around $100.00 which includes:
1. 1st nights stay at the Comfort Inn
2. Welcome dinner for 1 person
3. Lanyard and Convention I.D
4. 1 Convention T-shirt
5. 1 Raffle ticket for 7 quarts of Royal Purple Oil
6. Convention package to include Maximum Motorsports catalogs, ThrottleStop catalogs and detailed directions and contact information for all events/hotels.
This fee will be non-refundable. Registration deadline will be March 1, 2005 and afterwards the fee will be $120
Keep in mind this fee is a general fee. If you bring guests they of course will have to pay for their welcome dinner (cost is still being worked) and their own convention T-shirt, etc. It is NOT an extra $100 per person...so please don't confuse that.
Here is the schedule as follows:
July 25th/Monday- Welcome dinner/Pre-loop driving clinic
July 26th/Tues- Loop drive followed by indoor kart racing

July 27th/Wed- San Fransisco day....photo op on Lombard Street/Golden Gate bridge. This will be everyone's free day for doing the tourist/vacation/relaxation thing. We don't want to run you guys ragged!
Later that evening we'll be drag racing at Sacramento Raceway for Street Night.

July 28th/Thurs- Detailing Clinic and Predator Tuning Clinic at the Throttle Stop Mustang shop. The shop will also be open for fluid changes and any minor maintenance anyone might need to prepare for the Thunderhill track day! Later on in the evening we'll have a pre-track session "chalk talk" to bring you up to speed on numerous track topics such as track etiquette, various flags and their meanings, proper braking and turning, passing rules, etc etc.
July 29th/Fri- Thunderhill driving school!!!!
http://www.thunderhill.com/
The driving school will be hosted by Trackmasters

July 30th/Sat- Participants will have a choice of either attending the San Jose Grand Prix, or going on the Lake Tahoe California Passes cruise, which will be a great drive that the significant others will really enjoy! Here is a link to the route:

As you can see, we'll be staying in 3 different areas throughout the convention, which means 3 different hotels. It will be up to everyone to make their own reservations at their hotel of choice once we leave Sunnyvale. Below are the links for hotels in each area we are staying. Of course you are free to make reservations wherever you wish, but the goal is to get everyone in the same area at the start of the convention for obvious reasons.
The night of the 25th/26th we'll be staying in Sunnyvale, at the Comfort Inn.
The night of the 27th we'll be staying in Sacramento after the drag races. Here is the link to hotels in the area around the racetrack. Click on the local area map link to get to the hotels.

The night of the 28th and 29th we'll be staying in Willows, CA before and after the Thunderhill driving school. Click on the link below for hotels in the area.
