Wow Port Jeff has the Div 1 USRA Nats and RetroPalooza in 2014.

 

Congrats to Doug and the gang at Port Jeff (except for Derek) :D

 

Cheers

Hey all,

I apologize for dragging a thread out from the depths of the past but I had a question to ask. My friend John Weaver and I will be attending RP5 as part of "team obSCEne" and we are fairly new to retro racing. We're trying to get a bit of a head start with our planning and costs, and I was wondering if anyone knows of decently priced hotels near the new Port Jeff location?

At this time I would think we will wind up back at the same hotel we used for RP3.  I have to find the name of it.  It was very close and as reasonable as you can get out on long Island in the summer.

 

I thought there was a thread here in the archives.  Need to find it.
