drive is only 2.5 hours unless you hit traffic. zune if you don't have lodging already, camping may be your only option. our zip is 33870, I posted a long list of places a long time ago with phone numbers but I suck at searches.

Stay through the next weekend and take the rental on the track. Chin has a club course event the following Sat.

Have a safe trip.
Check out the Vettes at the Corral. I'll be there

I did it once and was forced to stay in some Hotel in some seedy town 60 miles away. It was a PITA. Next time, I would rent a small RV and just park that bad boy right inside the park. They have all kinds of vendors for food and such. Get a couple guys to pich in and you've got a little party!

Once your inside you can go almost anywhere with a general admission ticket. I'm sure with a Club ticket you'll be good to go. That's if you really want to. The Green Park side is not for the easily offended or children. A lot of those folks don't know there's a race going on.
