I e-mailed them about it last night. Here is their reply.
We have many hotels to choose from in Warsaw. We prefer the Comfort Inn and Suites, its nice and in a good location. It’s right on HWY-30 and next to a Ruby Tuesday. If you tell them you are in town to do business with Brenspeed you should be able to get our discounted rate. I do not have their number handy but it’s the only Comfort Inn in Warsaw.
Did they knock out a wall to put in the lift or move the Dyno? I remember the dyno bay being a little over 1 car wiide. There was a small room on the right side of the dyno bay where they filled Nitrous bottles

Hey Ben,
Looked them up and made my reservations tonight. Got 2 discounts. Got a king size bed for one that started at $79.00. Got a muture travelers discount (over 50) for $71.00...Mentioned Brenspeed and got it for a final price of $69.00. Well worth it!!! I will leave here around 3:30PM on Thursday and should be there by 7:30. I will be at Brenspeeds by 7 AM to meet Larry!! Hope I don't have to have dinner by myself guys!!

I hate how tony always yells at the media for "making something out of nothing" and then he goes and keeps starting sh*t and whining about the media attention...
also...a lot of people like him becuase he roughs people up ...but the thing is...he never owns it, he alwys blames someeone else...if he would own is actions, I may have a little more repect or him.

I hope I don't offend anyone but he reminds of the "ole Dale Earnhardt Sr" of the mid 90's. It was never his fault back then either.
I used to get so ****ed at him for wrecking Mark Martin back than!!

I'm gonna jump in head first on the NASCAR smack. (and I'm not really a fan of NASCAR anymore, to many fines and rule changes for me) There is just some tracks I have to watch. Mark Martin may be a class act, off the track. But, on the track he was not a tough enough racer, that is why he never won a championship. Not willing to get down and dirty when he needed to. Case in point Tony, Big E, Lil E or Darrell Waltrip in his prime would not have been beaten at Daytona last year by Kevin Harvick. There may have been a huge wreck, but he would not have gotten around them.
I went to a Midget race on dirt here in Indy a few years ago when Tony was still running Busch only. When practice and qualifing were just about over they made an announcment that there would be a slight delay for a late arrival. Tony was flying in from Milwaukee. When he got there they pushed the car onto the track. Tony was still getting dressed and strapped in. He had not even walked the track, much less hot lapped. He set fast time, (they get 1 qualifing lap) then won his heat race and finished second in the feature. Since that day I have liked him alot more than before. It was really impressive to see his car control, I just wish Gibbs hadn't went to the freakin foreign cars. Not a GM fan either, but better than toyota. I know it all about $$$$$.
IMO.. GM was do deep into Hendrick, Chilldress and DEI to go deep with Gibbs. Toyota's list of has been's, never have been and never will be drivers was not going to get them a win in cup. So I'm sure they gave up big bucks to get Gibbs to switch. I mean when Michael Waltrip Racing is your flagship so to speak the ship won't take long to sink.
I watched the practice last night live, I would have to say IMO Kurt was at fault. Tony tried to go low and Kurt blocked him, he then tried to high got a run and Kurt tried to squeeze him to the wall. Maybe Roger Penske should have left Kurt's big radar ears alone so he would have known Tony was coming.
This has been an editorial comment by Ben. Let the flaming begin.

No flaming from me. Basically I agree with everything you said. Including losing interest in Nascar the last few years. I have always been a hugh Mark Martin fan from the very early 90's. And your right...he was too much a gentleman on the track. Using the chrome horn a few key times and he would have had a championship under his belt. I suspect Hendrick will sweep this year again. Sat down to watch the race last night and fell asleep before the first lap.
Never saw any of it. Guess that's why I am the only one up at 4:30 AM.

After meeting you in the fall at Brenspeeds I think you really would look good in those chaps Darrell.
