Macktheknife Xtreme Xalted Member Donating Members 3,112 Member For: 22y 17d Gender: Male Location: BrisVegas Posted 15/10/03 07:11 AM Share Posted 15/10/03 07:11 AM Well now fellow Fuel, Ford, Rev (whichever applies) heads, time to set a bit of jealously happening. As part of my job in the transport industry, I've got to organise our annual foray to the Indy. Lots of time spent catering to our clients and generally have an absolute ball. So here it is:13 rooms at the ANA hotel, levels 16 17 18 & 21. We start on Wed evening and finish late Sun night. The ANA has developed into the unofficial headquarters of the transport industry for Indy. Suffice to say, it is a VERY INTERESTING collection of types................ Generally we might have upwards of 25 people in any of our 5 trackside rooms. Friday night, we hold our Cocktail party at the ANA, this is usually a precurser to a veeeery long night considering we've probably cracked the first ones at 10.am. Last year we had Craig Lowndes and Niel Compton as mixing guests. Saturday night we might do a special Dinner for 20-30 special customers, like say the Tepanyaki at the Marriot.By sunday, the opening time of the first drinks has usually lengthened out a bit.Our company is probably going to build a new transporter for Victor Bray and my bloody boss has scored a ride in Vic's burnout monster............the barstards.........!!! Anyhow, needless to say, that from Wed 22nd for probably a week, I'll be in no real condition to LOG ON and participate in this forum which has become somewhat of a drug to me.Ahhhh. you all know what I'm ganna say next doncha's...aye.ITS A BLOODY TOUGH JOB BUT SOMEONES GOTTA DO IT. Be thinking of you all now.........(Oh will my poor old body ever be the same?) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/6837-indy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
