Mini bash in Waco, TX. Nov 2

Saturday evening, Nov 2 there is a small car show at a church in Waco, TX.
We can meet up Saturday Nov 2 in the morning. Meet up somewhere, go eat, then go to the show. Maybe grab a brew afterwards.  Head home Sunday after lunch.

No affiliation with the church or the show. Just an excuse for another mini bash.  Only rule is you have to drive an old car.  All who can make it are welcome to come.

Who is in for it?

Holiday Inn Suites Waco Northwest
1801 N Development Blvd, Waco, TX 76705

Formula 1 weekend at COTA in Austin. Traffic will be atrocious. 
I'm a race official for F1, but y'all have a great time hanging out.

Motel quoted me $147+ tax over the phone.  I used Hotels.com and got a room (king sized bed) for $104.00 plus tax totaled 119.59 and you get 1 nights credit.  10 credits for a free room.

Great place we went to on the way home from Glen Rose Bash 15 😋

BTW from the hotel it’s 5 miles to Buzzard Billy’s & car show only 2 miles from the hotel.

I thought the hotel was basically next door to the car show.

Re: Mini bash in Waco, TX. Nov 2

How many Minis are we going to be bashing and should I bring a bat or a sledge hammer? Safety glasses will be mandatory I suppose.
We won the race this year, right? So that’s why we’re celebrating?

Wait until after Waco. No way it will get done by then.  Heck, it made it to Detroit and back to Dallas. It will make Waco.
