scottb Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Just ordered my season tickets for Mid-Ohio. This year, I wont be camping. I do have a group of friends in the campground by Honda bridge that I will be hanging out and partying with after the races. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottb Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 One year we stayed at a Hampton Inn on Springmill road, in Ontario, (right next to mansfield). about 15 minutes from the track.THis was the same location that Josh Hayes and M. Paris stayed and had breakfast with us. So it was kinda cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

attentiongetter92 Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 I'll be there all weekend, hopefully camping but probably not due to my friends being pussies(last year they didnt even ride up). I <3 the races. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snot Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 I booked our room. Looks like we are staying on trimble. A lot of the hotels (travel sites) didn't have rooms avaliable for that weekend. So we are staying where we did last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 A large group of OR always camps the best part of the races is all the fun we have at the campgrounds. If you do not get a campsite you will not get into the campgrounds and will miss all the fun get togethers and fire side chats. Hotel for that weekend is very lame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we have free food as sponsors and vendors grill for us. We also have very nice showers in the campgrounds as well. AC is also there as some have RV's. The comradery is great. The conversations around the fire with other members is great. With doing things and trying things comes wisdom, don't knock it till you've tried it.

Its just not my thing (any more). If I had a camper it would be another story, tents and sleeping bags suck on hot days and nights...

Photos by Marty Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 I'll be there. Working as a corner worker on Friday and then doing the photo thing on Saturday and Sunday. I'll be staying at the track all weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Yep I'm older too. And who uses sleeping bags anymore? The nights get plenty cool for good sleeping and my air mattress rivals any hotel bed I've ever been in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The conversations around the fire with other members is great.This could be an option next year for sure, would love to meet more OR folk especially at the races where the atmosphere is at its peak! Really want a toy hauler/camper so we can drag both bikes (shortbed Toyota doesnt carry more than a single) AND have comfy living quarters - win win!!So where do the majority of you hang out? Mainly stick around the campground side at the back straight/esses/thunder valley? Or is there another section of camping I'm not aware of? We walked damn near the whole complex last year checking out different vantage points, and we found the toprail of the grandstands and the top of the hill at the backstraight/esses under the trees were 2 of the best areas to see the most action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
