Oh, right-o, Jim. One can always walk a bit.

To expound on my post, the parking LOTS can easily be filled up. For headline races like WoO, there is not enough room. Heading North out of the plant there is always parking along the fence for the recycling plant. I have parked on occasion North of THERE in a field which has only one way out. They have a golf cart shuttling fans to and from - at least BEFORE the races.

Then you have everyone parking along the East side of the highway between it and the railroad tracks. I always cringe when I see that. No carts, crossing the highway, 45 mph speed limit (maybe 55 mph?), possibly kids, parking on a berm..... and, if it rained prior to or during, the ground is soft, soggy, and muddy in all three of the above. All manageable, but just be aware that it can get cumbersome. Always a good time inside, though.

Make sure to say "Hi" and thank Kim the greeter/bag inspector when you go in.
