Tell me about it, 2 hours? Almost any track I go to is 2 hours away. I remember leaving IRP at Midnight in the pouring rain and making it in at 6:30 in the morning.
In May, I would be leary of r@#n. August, I'd be leary of the heat, but a 3 race weekend with one shower and some A/C is a nice treat. If do stay in the $60 dollar hotel, I usually bring my own pillow and sleeping bag.
Speaking of hotels, this is a pretty neat site:
