Pebble Beach 2009 - LotusTalk

AgentTripleX · 06-25-2009, 04:32 PM

I'm 99.99% sure I'll be there this year as a sponsor. Curious who else will be going? I'll be there August 12 - 16. Stay tuned to this page for updates and more details.

Update : I'm looking to rent a 3bdrm house instead of a hotel now as I have a small group now. Any recommendations? Think maybe $3k for Aug 12-16.

Can you get a tee time? I would go for sure.

fishguy · 06-25-2009, 05:14 PM

you are a sponsor of this event, or a company you work for is going to be paying for you to go?

a bunch or us will be up for the week - probably not bothering with pebble beach this year though. some other events look really interesting - checking out getting into them.

MickOpalak · 06-25-2009, 08:17 PM

But seriously, I'm curious. For which company will you be there as a sponsor? A car company? Watch company? Champagne company? Give us some details.

Ya.. I think I'm doing the Jet Center Wednesday night, Quail on Thursday or Friday, and some other stuff I can't recall now.

Haha... not yet. Still finalizing plans.

BTW - I will most likely be in ATL in a couple weeks, July 14-18//19/20. Thinking of doing a Lotus lunch Saturday July 18 if you're around. Figured would be nice to meet the locals. Will start another thread when I book my flights.

steidley · 06-25-2009, 09:10 PM

I might be around. Still dancing with the idea.

AgentTripleX · 06-27-2009, 10:42 AM

I'm actually looking for a hook up on a place to stay or to share a room with someone. I got a corporate rate of $450/night with a 4 night minimum at the Hyatt, but that's a little too rich for my blood at this time.

paulhastings · 06-27-2009, 12:50 PM

Carmel Concours, Tour d'Elegance, track day and hopefully the jet center party if a ticket comes my way. Will likely sell my Quail tickets.

paulhastings · 06-27-2009, 12:52 PM

oh yeah,the Baja Cantina is on the agenda. Sounds very cool! Excited to participate/attend a few events for the first time.

Terculees · 06-28-2009, 07:52 AM

I will most likely be going (not through a company or anything) to Councours D'Lemons on Saturday and Concours D'Elegance on Sunday, and bringing a few friends. We will be staying in Gilroy or some other a bit out of the way place, because hotel prices are just insane!

Terculees · 07-20-2009, 09:18 AM

So I'm definitely going, and it will be to Lemons on Saturday and Elegance on Sunday. I was conteplating hitting Concorso Italiano on Friday, but the reviews of the last two CI events on F-Chat are less than favourable (actually more like don't waste your $$ on this) so it's just the two weekend days for me, and I'll be staying with a friend in San Jose. But if anyone wants to drive with me from Sacramento on Saturday morning, I'll be happy to lead a caravan.

paulhastings · 07-20-2009, 09:52 AM

Concorso is in a new location and I believe new ownership this year. It's not in my plan, as I have been many times, but, I expect to hear more favorable comments then the previous two years.

Since the cat is out of the bag... it's ok to share that I'll be there with 3 of these sexy new beasts

, including one in Pearl White.

And a couple of these other odd balls too.

Is it August 12 yet?

Can't wait to see the Aileron in person.
