SUMMARY:Black Hills Corvette Classic
DESCRIPTION:Several club members will be heading to South Dakota!  Ed Bickham of our club spoke at the February business meeting discussing this event.  The Black Hills Corvette Club (BHCC) hosts an annual event which is a drive across South Dakota!  The event starts on the east side of South Dakota in Souix Falls on Wednesday with events all day from 9:00AM-10:00PM\, Thursday is the drivers meeting at 7:30AM.  The caravan starts at 8:00AM to begin the 390-mile drive across the state to Spearfish on the west side of South Dakota.  Arriving around 2:00PM there is hotel registration at the Holiday Inn until 5:00PM and then festivities at the hotel continue through 9:00PM.  On Friday\, there are guided and self-guided tours\, a poker run\, auto cross\, a mystery brunch run\, with vendors all day.  The evening has a “Vette Street USA” in downtown Spearfish with a car show\, entertainment\, and plenty of food and drink. Then on Saturday\, more guided and self-guided tours\, a poker run\, a dyno challenge\, 70’s Corvette showcase with lunch\, vendors all day\, culminating with an evening awards banquet and farewell party.  A link describing this is here.  Also Motor Trend has a webpage for this event when it was held in 2018 including a video and photos.  The webpage is here. Whew! \nIf interested\, this link also has their registration and accommodations for both in Souix Falls and Spearfish.  He’s been planning the hotel arrangements prior to this event to get us from here in Southeast Virgina to Souix Falls.  There is some urgency here since the Holiday Inn in Spearfish is expected to sell out by the end of February.  You would need to book this early and hope they still have rooms.  A link to the Holiday Inn’s contract for the stay during this event in Spearfish is here.  The contract identifies the stay is not refundable after March 1st when they charge for the first night of the stay. \nOverall\, with the drive to Souix Falls and then the drive back from Spearfish after the event it’s a 9 or more days round trip from here in Southeast Virginia.  Ed is our lead for this event.  For more information contact him at 757-434-3046.

SUMMARY:IMSA WeatherTech Sportscar Championship - Rolex 24 Hour Daytona
DESCRIPTION:Daytona International Speedway\nThis is about the time of year when we begin thinking (and planning) for the Beachcombers annual migration to Daytona Beach\, FL for the Rolex 24 At DAYTONA. This 24-hour sports car endurance race is held annually and kicks off the new IMSA Weather Tech SportsCar Championship season. There are traditionally around sixty cars in the field competing for the overall victory as well as four different classes. Each team trades shifts between three and five drivers. Types of cars include Porsches\, Ferraris\, Corvettes\, Mazda\, Fords\, Lamborghinis\, Lexus and Cadillac. For those new to the Beachcombers\, we have made this multi-day road trip for several years and have always had a good time. If IMSA racing is something you enjoy or is something you’d like to learn more about\, you won’t be disappointed by attending this race. The weather can be unpredictable\, but we’ve always managed to make the best of it and the race still goes on. The current plan is to depart for Daytona on Thursday\, January 26 and drive to Savannah GA\, where we’ll spend the night and then drive into Daytona on Friday\, January 27. Rooms have been blocked at the Iris Garden Inn in Savannah and at the Super 8 in Daytona Beach\, FL\, under the Beachcombers Corvette Club name.\n\nTo reserve a room at the Iris Garden Inn for Thursday January 26\, call 1-912-777-5002 and ask for one of the rooms reserved for the Beachcombers Corvette Club at the rate of $79.00 (plus tax).\n\nTo reserve a room at the Super 8 call 386-255-5540 and tell them you wish to reserve one of the rooms blocked for the Beachcombers Corvette Club. The room rate at the Super 8 is $649.00 plus tax for the 3-night stay. This is more than we usually pay but because this being a race weekend room rates are extremely high.\n\nTo take advantage of the above rates you must reserve your rooms prior to November 30\, 2022. \nAfter that the above room rates will not apply. On January 30\, after checking out of the hotel you’re on your own as some may be taking side trips to other adventures and others heading directly back home.
