He said there are no hook-ups, dump station, or anything like that, just a small spot on an asphalt lot. He said there are around 70 motor homes already there and a lot of unhappy people. He said he was also told that there was going to be a $10 fee for spectator car parking this year. Wow, can you imagine the reactions we're going to hear on this. :thumbsdown:

It was $5 to park each day at Perris.

If they just started this stuff at Irwindale.....:action-smiley-049:

Kim and I definitely do not like paying the extra $$, but we feel that what Lloyd said is so true. I especially think it now that arthritis has kicked me right in the knees! Therefore, again for the next Chili Bowl, they have my "parking fee" already in their pockets. It is like hearing about someone named Benjamin. You know, Ben Dover.

I may be wrong but I don't think "offseason" racing on any level is for teams or fans on a budget.

First there were Front Gate Promoters. Then came along the Back Gate Promoters. Who will take the credit in being the first to call 'em
