[Shotimes] Memphis is shaping up. Good food

[Ron Porter]

Besides the usual Beale St, places, there's a (small chain) restaurant off
Beale called Texas de Brazil (Brazilian Steakhouse). Not necessarily cheap,
but great food & atmosphere!! Wish we had one up this way, but they aren't
in our area yet (although they now have one in Schaumburg, so they're
getting closer!!).

Everyone:

Jan and I took Tuesday and Wednesday of this week to visit Memphis and 
pick out the restaurants for the convention.

Let me say that finding good, interesting food in Memphis is no 
problem.  Finding the same with enough room for our group and everything 
else we must take into account is more of a problem.  But we dove in and 
visited about 8 restaurants and sampled food at most of them as part of 
the ritual of putting on this event.  We do it all for you folks!

OK, mock tears for those that must try lots of good food is now over.  :)

We did find what we were looking for. 

We have a great place for the Sunday pre-convention dinner to get people 
in the mood.  We also found two downtown locations to let you sample all 
that is Beale Street and the Memphis sound and scene.   All at decent 
prices with free entry to some clubs for music.

Finally, we have a location for Friday night, that didn't fit into the 
convention days, but we will invite any that stay over friday to join us 
at an 1800's southern mansion to be treated like southern royalty.

I would like to remind everyone that we need your reservation early if 
you want to do the very fun RACE ON experience of riding in or driving a 
real NASCAR style race car.  We have a super low price but need advance 
reservations since they require a big deposit early.  So check out the 
convention on the club web site, and get your reservations in.  The 
hotel also has rooms left, please make reservations now even if you 
think you might not make it, you can cancel your room up to 24 hours before.

See you in Memphis!
