I'll be in the Billy's hospitality area - let me know if you want to try to catch up. Probably only going to make the Sunday race but will try to get out for the Rolex series on Sat.

The RV camping hill is a great spot.

I didn't care for all the trees on the backstretch. The further down I moved though the better it was.

The trees did provide shade though which makes a lot of sense.

Massive thumbs up to the staff. We got in and out with no trouble at all. The buses to and from the track were great. I would love to see other places utilize this. Great facilitys at barber.

My main issue is NO DAMN TURKEY LEGS!?!?!? Wtf.

I went last year and had a blast. Nice track and super clean place to see a race. Didn't go this year because I couldn't afford it. Going on a cruise instead, but I will go back.

I knew it was going to be a good day when I walked up to my tent yesterday morning and Rick Mears was standing there watching the morning warmup.

I think $60 last year for the Sunday part of the weekend, but I didn't get as much money back on my taxes as I thought and I would have gas, food and hotel to pay for as well
