Good evening all, I am happy to announce the events taking place at Marauderville this year to give you all some detail on what we have planned. Specific dates and times of the events will be released soon as we are finalizing a couple of things. But the events are a go, so I am happy to announce

The Atlanta Motor Speedway experience
We will be running laps on the Speedway this year and will have the time and the option for groups to run additional laps following the organized time (Price to be determined)

The Paul Casey Drag Racing experience. Anyone that knew Paul, knew he ahd over 250K on the clock, 1/4 mile at a time. We are working with the speedway that may allow us to do this there, if not this will be arranged at Commerce, home of the Southern Super Heavy Weight Shootout

Stone Mountain Southern Hospitality. http://www.stonemountainpark.com/ (http://www.stonemountainpark.com/)
We will be smoking ribs and grilling some dyanamite food for an afternoon, tours will be available on a personal basis to anyone wishing to explore Stone Mountain (Links and more information will be posted this week)

The Cyclorama
http://www.atlantacyclorama.org/ (http://www.atlantacyclorama.org/)
For those that are not familar, the Cyclorama is a Civil War Museum, that also houses the worlds largest Canvas depicting the battle of Atlanta during the Civil war. This is a 360 degree, 3D experience sure to quench the thirst of history buffs

The Tilted Kilt Car Show. An afternoon of pub food, spirits and the Car show. We will have many different classes for all types of Marauders

And Finally, we have down time built in for you to visit with and meet Martyo of Mo's SpeedShop. We all know that Speed costs money, it's a matter of how fast you want to go. We will have team leaders available to lead convoys to Mo's and give you a chance to meet the man that has given a lot to the community (and taken some from my checkbook, which was worth every penny)

In addition, especially for some of our significant others that may not always be up for events surrounding the car, there is shopping just a few miles north of the Hotel at tha Mall of Georgia
http://www.simon.com/mall/mall-of-georgia (http://www.simon.com/mall/mall-of-georgia)

And for Meal times not specifically arranged through the event, this is one of the better barbecue places in Atlanta and has some of the best biscuits you can eat.

Hopefully this will start wetting your appetite, later this week I will have some links and photos added for you to get more background on the event.

There is a saying in Atlanta, "Welcome South Brother" and on behalf of Cwright, GA Mike, and myself, we are thrilled to welcome you South to enjoy some Southern Comfort in the name of Paul Casey

You could probably hit the Coke factory at the same time as the Cyclorama. They are not terribly far from one another.

Glad to hear everyone is as excited about coming, as we are about showing you all a good time:beer: That said, Chris, Brad and I built in on purpose, a decent amount of free time..... Use that to plan/map out your "want to do's" while visiting.

If you plan on visiting Mo's or Injected Engineering to have them wrench on/dyno tune your Marauder, make sure you make a reservation well in advance of Marauderville XI...... Most cars need some pre dyno prep before they hit the rollers...... Change oil, plugs, filters ect. If they have to do these things for you, it only delays the guy next in line and costs you more than you were expecting.

Again, looking forward to continuing the Marauderville tradition with you all this September in Georgia..... XI..... Its when One:burnout: & One:burnout: line up:D

Well Jim, here is the thing... I am not going to put anyone out there I don't know or someone in our region can't vouch for..... We Marauder guys are a particular bunch... Would rather have nobody (and then nobody to blame) then somebody who may do an inferior job or on and on and on..... I think you can see where I'm going..... That said tho... If we cannot arrange a quality detailer or 2, you should have enough notice to perform your own due diligence as to where in the ATL you would be comfortable detailing your car.

Hi Georgia planning guys-- itinerary sounds GREAT!!!! Fordfrk and I are hoping to get to this one!!!!!

Sounds good Hammer! Hope you guys can make it down:banana2:

We can work on that no problem. The area of I-10 & I -75 would be better actually to head straight up to Atlanta.

I've added some links in post one for people to get a better , visual. We are finalizing the car show categories should have that up soon. T-Shirts are in final design, awaiting final approval from the ownership and committee. Once the categories for the car show are finalized, I will order trophy plaques.

We don't want to post times of the events or final agenda yet as that is still subject to change based on what we will be allowed to do at the speedway.

I hope this helps, if there is any specific information I can offer further as far as a specific question you needed answered, please feel free to pm me and I will do my best to get it answered for you.

I liked these \/\/\/\/\/\/ In-Car videos from MERCMAN & Blown3.8 at MV8 at Charlotte Motor Speedway (CMS) with 32* of banking in the turns.

Thought this video deserved a more prominent location. :D

From Marauderville VIII. Time for the participants of MV8 to relive it just one more time. Thanks MERC MA'AM. :up:

Good stuff, thanks for posting up again, Charlie!

BTW AMS is a sister track to Charlotte, so you can expect the same kinda ride.

2 months from today, a good many of you will be packing up your Marauder, making last checks for all the important event, comfort and safety related items to take along with you for the trip to Atlanta.:beer:
A cautionary item.... We will be on the road a good bit to get here and also for a few of the events. Check your tires, suspension and brakes this week:eek:. If you need to change trans fluids or do a coolant service, this week would be the time.... That way you can take care of the smaller stuff the closer you get to take off:burnout:

Chris, Brad and I are looking forward to seeing you all in September and want you to enjoy your trip/Marauderville XI experience.:banana2:

Can't Wait!!!

Been there done that circa SSHS9
Long way home, but not nearly as long as the 1st phone call with wifey.

"Honey I windowed the block" not one of my favorite lines. LOL

Frankly, I am not going to try and break the sound barrier but it would be nice to try 1320 with the rear tires turning the same speed as the fronts, I think I have a quick car.
I hope I do anyway...

Word. Last time out I snapped the cromoly driveshaft clean in half WITH the family! It cost altogether several hours and $400 to get it home, plus taking up other members time. I vowed to never return without a trailer at this point! LOL We shall see if I actually stick to my words!
