I'm surprised more people aren't going to this - only because the Milwaukee Mile event was so popular (albeit, closer).

This should be very cool, unfortunately I can't make it up there. I'm not much of a circle track fan so should be cool to see Nascar run at RA. I know the Sprint cup or whatever it's called this year races a couple road courses, I have no clue about the Nationwide series though. Is this the biggest road course they will run?

And just for the WTF factor, after watching that news cast above about the testing this is one of the videos youtube recommended.

I had the chance to attend and be a The Security Supervisor and just walk my happy ass anywhere I wanted to...But it's my weekend off and I'll be in the U.P. doing some fishing and getting my drink on...:headbang

I am assuming I will have access to everything, but need to verify that.

I don't see why not.. Your their Picture man!!! LOL

From my understanding is the B.I. is running a shuttle from HQ and we are having our guys driving. I thinks it's for the B.I.'s VIP's though.

Nope, the shuttle is for anyone, but you had to pay to get on it...

I reminded my boss that I'd like to take off Saturday for the event, and he said "You told me already"

I respond: "Yea but that was a few weeks ago, and I forgot about it myself"

Boss: "I haven't forgot about because I want to go!"

Mike there is a group staying at KA campground so they will probably be parking there so they won't be to far from the track or your house for that matter I guess. If they end up needing more places to park I will let them know where you live.

Are you going out there? I will be out there around 1pm today until they are done so and all day tomorrow so if you are out there let me know and I will find you.

No I wont be. But if you need extra spots just park by the 3 car. If I come home and see cars in the driveway its no biggie to me. I won some free tix from work but I gave them to a woman who was bitching about never winning tickets cause I dont really care if I go or not.:thumbsup

As for town your best bet is Antonios in Plymouth for skanks. Also Check out Elkhart brown bear and Seipkens for the hot girls.

I take it they're expecting quite the amount of people for this event? Even going to the larger races in the past I've never had problems finding parking.

I heard there were around 40,000 people; not as packed as the CART races used to be, but it was still the largest event at Road America this year, and the loudest, haha. It's the only race where the pits are blocked off(for the nationwide cars, other parts of the pits were open). I'm kind of glad Road America doesn't have garages, it's nice to be able to walk right up to the cars being worked on.

I like being able to walk around and watch the race from different parts of the track. One motor home on the backstraight had a large flatscreen, so that was nice.

Easily had to have been well over 80,000 people in attendance
