I'll be there bright and early Saturday 9 am...or at least I'll try--I'll be driving down from Sactown...LOL!!!

Extreme99--sorry to hear that they couldn't squeeze you in; I added my wife as a guest a few weeks after I registered...needless to say, she was wait-listed (kicking myself at that point for assuming that she wasn't interested in going)...I was worried that she might not get in, to the point that I had to ask my buddy for a reg code (he had four of them) so that she could get a confirmation--even then, the only slots still open were the late afternoon ones.

The only "dilemma" I'll have to deal with is deciding whether to go for the breakfast or lunch meals--I read in the TOL thread in the CL Car Chat forum that supposedly they are limiting registered guests to either breakfast or lunch this time around (controlled via the card that you'll be given, which you'll have to use to register for the test drives and meals).

toneman, here are more details. there are 3 food "courts". your car can be used in one for either light refreshment / desert once, and then once more at either of the other two locations for breakfast / lunch

what we did, we went there in the morning, got refreshment for breakfast. and then later did the lunch at one of the other two locations

Thanks for the additional info--the refreshment "court" will work for me as far as breakfast goes!
