Most people I know share a room, 3-5 people to a room, and use it as a pit area as well. It keeps the costs down and pretty much makes it more fun for everybody involved.

Well you sorta have to pit in the room otherwise you won't know when your heat is because they have it broadcast on the TV.

WVRACER

is it possable to pit out in the parkinglot between heats and just keep track of the race i wonder i know what the weather is like but i have pitted in my van befor and it worked out ok.

you run 2 heats on Friday and Saturday.....heats run from 8 or 9 in the morning to at least 9 at night if not later. Its about 6 or 7 hours between heats.

WVRACER

so a person has pleanty of time between heats and could live without the hotel room just hang around the track watching the racing till your heat gets close

thanks joneser

Whats up guys,Alex Lopez here.Just had a quick question.By any chance does anybody know where there is a nearby indoor carpet track by Cleveland.Meaning the actual hotel.When i attended the race last year,there was a track about 10 minutes from the actual race.I just wanted to know if that track was still there.Let me know whats up.

It is usually pretty cold that time of year, 20-50 degrees. If you do not mind your van running all day with heat or getting a generator that is actually a good way to pit.
