    Garage space?

    Hi guys,

    New to Loudon this year -- except for the October weekend in '06 -- and wondering if anyone has garage space for the first race weekend. I've got one SV, and I'll be there for Friday practice and Saturday.

    Also, if there's no garage space, do people pit in the parking lot area or out on the grass infield? Is there reliable power out there?

    Thanks, and see you there --

    CBR pits right at the top of the hill coming out of the tunnel on the right and left. Plenty of power.

    Some guys rent garage space, but it's mostly full and space costs $$$.

    Good to know -- thanks.

    Is there PA system out there? Does LRRS broadcast the PA over an FM frequency?

    They try, but not really.

    Get a scanner from Radio Shack.

    I moved to a garage and now you're calling it the CBR pits?

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    YES!

    Hey, we have our own pits. They are smaller and less exciting than the LDR crews, but we have them none the less!

    Speaking of the infield, is it bad form to park next to a group and camp out or is there staked out territories that newbs arent welcome or anything?
    Im not talknig about people that have been there 100 years, if they tell me to move I will, but I dont wanna park next to a bunch of people and find out they have their own little groups.

    There are a bunch of groups that pit together in the infield, which never changes from weekend to weekend.

    best bet ... if there is a ton of space around the infield ... don't put your stuff right ontop of someone else because most likely they are waiting for the rest of their "group" ... keep it spread out

    after the first weekend you'll see where everyone pits

    Go through the tubes, top of the hill, you will see most of us there. Any NESR member is welcome to pit near me.

    Jamie, can you folks reserve a spot near your pits for me and Zsolt? I'm not sure when you guys are going up (i'm going to try and get up there Thursday night, or early friday morning). If there isn't space, I'll just pit wherever there's power.

    Mark, for some reason likes to wake up at 4am on saturday and then drive to the track .

    I'll be there Friday, probably around 10am or so.

    Pretty much. It's worth it to me to have a workbench, power, air, be out of the rain and the sun, able to hear the announcments and clost to my tires.

    Cool man, thanks. I might have something worked out with a buddy, but if not youll see me there. I got a black Dodge Ram with a west coast choppers sticker on the tailgate, and the driver will have a permanent look of confusion on his face.
