Guys since I have no been there yet, i'm not sure what to expect. As far as the pits go.

Is there enough garage space?
Electricity? Air hookups?
What do people do for lunch?


Getting very excited!

There are no garages. You should get an EZ up.

The grill at the track is open for lunches.

There is power there and I think it was $20 to plug into it. Last year there was a tire vendor there and they would check/adjust your air pressure for you if you brought the bike to them.

We also left all our bikes and gear at the track overnight last year with no problems. I wouldn't worry about it, there seems to be good security there.

The infield restaraunt is open for trackdays unlike Loudon and the food is reasonably good. Much easier than lugging a grill all the way down there IMO

I melted a new set of tires in 2 days but I errrr found myself on the track more than I was supposed to be For a 3 day trackday, you may want to considder bringing a oil change for the bike, I changed mine after 1 day and it looked like poo

Me and Nazo are bringing the matching twin RR's and I'm also hoping to borrow a few bikes while I'm down there. I think I might get a chance to run a few laps on a friends 125 smoker.

Hawk's not coming.
After the money and time I've spent on that this offseason... that pony ride isn't going to be open for many public rides.

I'm riding either the ZX-6 and EX500, whichever one Pete's not on.
