East Brunswick is about 1.5 hours from Philly. If you're going, make sure you take me because I'm in Philly without a car and am in the market for that exact bundle ;)

Quick, somebody congratulate me - I just crossed my 100th post!

Coming back to the subject, too bad nothing close to Washington, DC. I still registered to go to NJ - sounds like it will be worth the drive. Now all I need to do is convince the wife that we have to go! Thanks OP.

For all going to the Chicago show, Parking is going to be Approx $22 at the Sheraton hotel,

Im probably going to go, but am looking for a couple friends who are interested to split the Parking costs.

$250 bundle will be at least $272 because of the ripoff parking,

maybe take the train ? any ideas on the best transport ???

IMHO,

For those of you that are worrying about the NFS status or whatever, I think that's a crock. AMD and the other sponsors are giving a great deal here and I'm sure they don't want you to go out and Ebay it.

At least the page says nothing about entrance fee, so I assume there won't.

This would be hot if it were sooner. Those of us on the East Coast have to wait till late July, by then prices will have fallen a good deal. Think there'll be any price adjustments as the tour goes on?
