Would be good to have some tips on what to bring, consider, etc.
Here's an excerpt from
last year's NSXPO 2005 social registration packet that was mailed to all attendees after they signed up. It might help you with some items that typically are brought by attendees. Bottom line is that the most important thing to bring is yourself. Just about everything else can be bought/borrowed if necessary, so as long as you show up you'll have a blast.
This is a list of items that you may consider bringing with you to NSXPO 2005:
- This Informational Packet
- NSXPO Drivers’ School participants will find requirements & suggestions in an additional Drivers’ School Packet
Clothing
- Appropriate attire for all activities at NSXPO 2005 will range from “casual” to “dressy casual” or “business casual”. Items such as sport jackets, ties, and evening dresses will not be necessary.
- October weather in the Greater Phoenix area is pleasant. Normal daily high temperatures are in the upper eighties, and lows in the upper fifties at night. Rain is a possibility, but not a probability. In any case, the event will take place rain or shine.
