richard u said your room could sleep 5 people so do u share and if so was it 120$ each or split

Andy Moore 18-07-2008 08:15 PM

www.rcclash.com is UPDATED!

The rooms should be in the ~$80 range, although they are a little smaller (still ample).

Anymore questions, just post them up, pm me or email me.

In the US you pay per room instead of per person like we do over here. The room we had last year was about 3x the size of a normal travel lodge room with 2x double beds and a kitchen/dining room with sofa. Was almost like an apartment haha :)

Nice Rich!

We ran our SuperCup series there this past weekend and the track was again amazing. It was a little damp to start, but with the help of the sun it turned out great. I'll have pics/video up soon.

The prices to fly from Manchester are fairly similar, the flight goes via Philadelphia. Heathrow adds more travel time anyway for the Northerners, although has the benefit of 30 planes taking off per minute. Or is it one plane every 30 seconds? I forget...

OMG swimming pool!!!!! ace. Im gonna be the first one to do a bomb in the pool hahahahaha

Andy Moore 06-08-2008 06:45 PM

I would reccomend the "Inn and Suites" as it might be a touch nicer. They are within a block of each other as far as location...and location to the track.
