    Who wants in? I'm looking at booking an RV for this now, so we'll have to figure out how big we want.. We have the same spot at 10a-10b as the past 3 years. Let's do it!

    With ALMS and Rolex merging next year, no one really knows yet what's going to happen to this race.

    Lil Jew's camera car is up and running... since no key to hide, I'll be getting the motor drunk for theft deterrence. You are coming right crazyazn?

    We've had a cancellation in the RV. Anyone who wants to crash is more than welcome! It will help everyones wallets if we get some more people in there. :)

    Do you have room for a Legacy GT wagon at the campsite? I have firewood I can bring. I'll be there around 7:15am.

    Where exactly is the RV? I saw spot 29 on turns 10 and 11, but is that on the infield or just outside the track loop? What's the best access road to take?

    Yes we should have room for you. When you get through the gate and go up the hill veer right and DO NOT cross the bridge. Then keep going straight after a while on you will see the rv with a big allpro subaru banner and our wrxatlanta banner across the front.
    This will be on your left. Parking is on your right we can move a car up for you to pull behind.
