We just signed KC Jones and the famous Jet Powered Choo Choo Train to be at Speedworld for the opener. Plus he just built a cool wheel stander that he is also bringing.

Good move, all the cool kids are staying at the track these days ;)

Seriously, it is nice to not have to worry about reservations, you can make last minute decisions on the events you attend (kinda like I am going to do for this event). After my injury there is no way I'll get the race truck done in time for this event, but it might be nice to run down there in my tow rig or Jetta.

After seeing your post about the airline tickets and hotel, I was going to ask if a couple of races worth of that would get you a used motorhome or living quarters trailer!

We do ahve pics of the new ride.... but its still under wraps. its not ready for pictures yet anyways pretty plain looking right now and apart haha.

not much of a bed to stay in haha be pretty bare.

Looking forward to staying at the tracks and not getting up early to wait in line to get into the gates.

Should save a little money not paying for hotels on the road trips.
 
I enjoy staying at the track and most always do, but my wife is flying in for this event so I'll not be sleeping in the race trailer this time.
