So, is the lot outside of the gate? This is my first trip to this track. The way I read their rules no cooler's on the property.:11:

Just no coolers through the gate to the grandstands. We're getting the camper ready tomorrow night. Looks like great weather for a great show!!!

Yes, the parking lot is outside of the gates. You can anything you want outside but no carry ins are allowed once inside the gates

You cant take anything into the track its self..I think it would be okay to have a cooler at you car or your tent for that matter..but as for taking anything in you can't do that. Hope you enjoy your first trip to Kokomo..Its a bad a$$ track and should be a great show!

If we do throw a tent are we allowed a cooler with food & drink? Thanks:32:

Ya gotta get a van i'm telling you,to slum it properly! Ground will probably be a bit moist for tenting it I would think. Would want an air mattress under me if I was tenting.

What everyone else said about the coolers. I think the concessions are reasonably priced for the most part. I usually get a pork chop sandwich and a drink or 2 when I am there.

There are a bunch of motels in Kokomo,so you can always check with others to see what the availability is. Others can chime in on where they stay etc,and there are posters here from Kokomo as well,that can tell you better on whats what in town.

Good thing you saw the light,and decided to come to Kokomo!

Luckybuc wont be the only one camping out. My brother and I plan to. As as will many more I'm betting.
The only problem I foresee is finding down time during an all open wheel show to head to the parking lot cooler for a beer or 3.
See you there!

I'm looking forward to spending my first race trip of 2014 by sleeping on the floor of the van!

Not sure what is happening in Kokomo which is filling beds on Friday night. I just called the Days Inn and Suites where I always stay and they do have rooms on Friday, but they are business kings which are a little more. Regular doubles and kings are sold out. Number is 765-453-7100 if you are interested.

Darn, just called Fairfield and they are full. Guess I'll wait till we get in town and go from there.
