This might be a start for getting information.Lowe's Motot Speedway

I think some people are comming from TN, Tim Christian has probably been before and might have more direct info.

Bamm · 02-05-2004, 11:12 AM

Once we get closer to the date, we should try to figure out how & where to meet up...........Jerry

Huck · 02-05-2004, 11:27 AM

I'll be coming down from KY but not to sell as most of my selling will be in Louisville on March 19-20. Often times these big meets get sold out very early so you need to check with the sponsor real quick like or find a buddy who will share some space. Good luck---Huck

pickupman · 02-05-2004, 12:04 PM

I'll be there Thurs thru Sat. maybe sun.
Bill

kingparts · 02-05-2004, 02:22 PM

Check out www.charlotte-autofair.com. All the spaces on the inside of the track are sold out. Unless you know somebody it is hard to get those spaces. I have heard of people getting lucky and possibly get one space on the inside. Tim C. has spaces on the inside of the track that he sets up on and will be there from Thurs.-Sunday. I might have three spaces on the green field that I might not use, not sure yet. We also usually camp at our spaces. There are showers and restrooms that are available.

RANDY COX · 02-05-2004, 06:26 PM

69 air cab · 02-05-2004, 08:14 PM

I'll be there loaded with bear to buy lots of parts. It's my twice a year get-a-way. Great place to be. Anyone have motel or tent reservations yet? If so.....where are you staying?

RANDY COX · 02-05-2004, 08:45 PM

I'll be staying at best western only eight miles from the track.only 45.00 a night last year is was 75.00 a night and about 15 miles away.

pickupman · 02-05-2004, 08:59 PM

They probably will have plenty of spots in the red field. Can't remember off hand but I think the spots are around $40, that was in the green field. But it has been quite a while since I paid for them.
Bill

69 air cab · 02-05-2004, 09:10 PM

$40 sound like what I remember too although I also remember a $75 fee somewhere there.
I may try to stay in the camp ground next to the track.

**BIG ORANGE** · 02-05-2004, 10:44 PM

I'll try to make it,just depends on how the racecar does the week before the Auto fair. PTs as far as selling used parts there,dont get you hopes up on making alot of cash,I took stuff up there afew times and was inside the track on the orange field and belive me there's alot of guys selling used truck parts there and you just about have't give ya stuff away for cheap prices then they want you to take it to there car for them.lol I like meeting boardmembers and buying parts there mostly!

**lock** · 02-06-2004, 10:29 AM

I'll be there with my car club. I will be looking to work with a vendor to bring a variety of parts for my truck though. If your selling new and used parts please post up. I'll be in contact.

I'll be with GM Muscle of the Carolinas club... Ill have the black IROC-Z with me. Drop by and say hi. Hopefully Ill have my 68 C10 ready for the fall show

HEAVY CHEVY · 02-06-2004, 11:32 PM

69 air cab · 02-07-2004, 09:01 PM

If any of you who are taking parts to sell will pm me and tell me about where you'll be I will make sure I look at your stuff first before I buy.
THks

lux hauler · 02-08-2004, 01:44 AM

I'll be there.
This will be my first year and I'll be staying at one of the Fairfield Inn's.........northeast I believe.
Leaving here some time Wednesday and will be there til some time Sunday.

**smitty62** · 02-08-2004, 02:01 AM

I don't plan on selling parts, but I wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea for board members that are selling come up with some sort of banner to show they are board members. I would give them first shot at my few $$ if i knew who they were.

tphsmith · 02-08-2004, 11:01 AM

hey some form of a banner or sign would be cool to regognize board members, Id like to meet ya and well hey you all show alot of parts, why wouldnt I give the members first choice. as long as I knew who at the fair is on this board

69 air cab · 02-08-2004, 11:24 AM

that's a great idea!!!

RANDY COX · 02-08-2004, 11:29 AM

Well I'm not sure if I'll be selling,I would like to try to sell my car 48 fleetline 4 dr original.I probably will wear my t-shirt with our logo,it has my board name on it.

weasel29gm · 02-08-2004, 11:31 AM
