Yes.

Upon receipt of the completed registration, you'll be sent a confirmation via e-mail. In addition, lunch and dinner passes (given to you when you arrive) will be provided only to those who have pre-registered.....the room will be controlled access, as we will be charged by the hotel for each "place/seat" reserved.

If we have an additional 10-20 people in the room there is no way I or the hotel can keep track of those not holding a meal pass, other than restricting access to the room. To make it simple, anyone who desires to attend the Lunch/Tech Session or the Dinner/Banquet will have to be pre-paid. These are the only times when door prizes will be handed out.

Also, I'll bring to attention, the Hilton said that the AMG Event rooms are full, so I had to pay regular price. I went head and booked 2 rooms today. (it was only $76 a night for 2 double beds). Also, the Hilton said my age would not be a problem to check in, good news!

Well, as soon as I get comfirmed tonight my friend is going, I'll send the registration and check! I CAN'T WAIT!!


PS- Brian, shoot me a PM, we could probably meet up and ride out together.
oh **** are you kidding me? the rooms are already booked????

Chappy can we get more rooms? otherwise i'm sleeping on somebody's floor... any takers?

Already taken care of....call the hotel this morning and book your room. We have secured a group rate at the Hilton Atlanta Northeast for just $74/night (plus tax). You must make your reservations directly with the hotel by contacting them at (770) 447-4747 and mention you are with the “Atlanta AMG Meet”

Am I the only one?

Anybody else coming without an AMG? I'm a fanatic, but at 21, AMG $ is not in my wallet! I don't mind if I'm the only one there with a non-amg, just curious...

What is this, a SL600 on the list? I hope it has been tuned by Renntech! Then we can put another debate to rest.....

As of today, there are a few dyno spots left but we'll be full by next week I am certain.

Have you seen the thread about the Caravans?

Pushing 30 (paid, in hand)....with another 40 "promises". We still have three weeks till the registration deadline. I imagine we will hit our goal of 75+ cars and 10 states represented.

Over half of the replies to date have been from out-of-state.

We're looking forward to meeting you. It's gonna be a blast!

If you haven't already, contact the Hilton to make your hotel reservations (phone number is 770-447-4747 - Make sure to let them know you're with the "Atlanta AMG Meet") and if you decide to run at the drags, you can pre-register here...several of us are already signed up. You'll save a few bucks and get the t-shirt to boot!
