Got a room for thursday night($99 in Pacific grove). I go up thursday early(4 1/2 hrs.)....go in to laguna seca(free). Get my fill of historic race cars and watch practice. Then hit RM and Russo previews, hopeful dinner with Ken and his new black 914-6, then Christie's Auction($60). Fri morning back to laguna seca (optional-$45), then into Pebble Beach to cruise and check the previews at the PB Lodge(Blackhawk) and the Equestrian Center(Gooding), then sneak in to the Quail Lodge(Bonhams) preview. Then, late lunch in Big Sur and take HWY 1(twisty road) home. Back in my own bed friday night. And I have a camera full of cool pic's! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)

You would thing that with two motor heads in the house that some of it would rub off!! Oh also we might be covering something called The Petite something or other!!!! You can usually find rooms in Carmel Valley for a little less than anything in town (monterey, Pacific Grove, Carmel). Go to the track on Friday if you want to see all the Vintage run groups in the same day, also less $$ than sat. or sunday. The actual Pebble Beach Concours DeLegance on Sunday is quite pricey. I think they want $150.00 per person to walk around the grass and peek at some nice old cars. http://www.pebblebeachconcours.net/ I did it in 98' when Porsche was the feature marque. Only $50.00 a ticket back then. You will definately spend some $$$ that weekend, but go there and enjoy yourself. I wish I could be there.....but I'm stuck in Montgomery, Al for several more weeks.

Greg, Monterey is usually sold out on the weekend. I have gotten lucky on occasion by walking in and asking about a cancellations. If all else fails, you can drive out to Salinas and find lodging. Monterey bay hotel called me and said they had one night(thurs only) for $520 plus tax! They all raise their prices for this big weekend......Good Luck!
