redkow97 Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 The track deserves it. So much money is going into that facility. I really hope I can attend the weekend. With Mid-Ohio off the schedule, OR should definitely plan to show up in force for this. http://www.motoamerica.com/2017-motoamerica-race-schedule-expands-to-10-rounds#page-3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 On a side note; who all would be interested in going? Should we get something planned for it? Camping? Hotel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Quote Is on-site camping available? Pitt Race does not permit spectator camping. Visitors are encouraged to contact select hotels listed in our Visitor’s Guide for a listing of local lodging options. That's unfortunate.

Casper Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Anyone have time to call around and try to get a group rate going for a hotel? There's a Hampton in about twenty minutes north in New Castle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHill Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Damnit.....was about to say I'm not sure how exactly they would work camping depending on the number of spectators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHill Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 here's a thought...we hit up Mines and Meadows for a group rate for camping....5 minutes down the road 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Barring work, I'm in. If we get this planned I can put in on the calendar that I'm unavailable that weekend anyhow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue-yamaR6s Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Awesome, will go for sure but don't know about camping out at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted October 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 If they don't have on-site camping, that will royally suck. Shit, I will go help them plan for it free of charge. Just let me camp for free! It's a 400 acre facility. I have to believe they could sell at least SOME camping sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i-Zapp Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) on one hand i kinda understand "no camping" since they don't have the space the other venues do, but on the other hand it's kinda hard to believe they would stage such a huge event without that provision. we did a two day event there years ago (supermoto racing) and i can tell you the hotel offerings are rough, and sparse. i hope they change their mind. i wonder if motorhomes are considered "camping"?

redkow97 Posted October 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 I think they could do it if they planned well. Security (keeping people quiet after midnight) would be the hard part... RV camping for spectators would be tight, but it could work. I'm to think where they still have (flat) grass for tent camping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted October 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Okay, I'm looking at aerial photos. They need bridges to the infields for camping space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
