I plan to be there with my buddy and both our freshly finished 69 Camaro verts. I forgot the hotel we stayed at in October, but it was only 4 miles away. Decent but not much for parking a trailer

There is a Hooter's about 20 minutes north in Denton. Here is a link to nearby hotels http://www.texasmotorspeedwayhotels.com/. I will be there walking around one day for sure.

Most of the hotels within 15 miles are fairly new. Denton has built several new ones in the past few years right off of I-35. Denton is about 15 mins to the North of the track.

Best place to eat is at the cafe just north of the vendor area, REAL food and one price to eat all day.

It's better to go/pay early & get more for your money too.
I'll be out there on Sat for sure.... prob won't make it out of work early enough tomorrow to make it worth going. The 64 Vette my buddy was working on was picked up today & they're bringing it to the show. Kind of a rest-mod type w/a clean stock-ish look, billet wheels, LS7, TKO-600, Wilwoods, cold a/c & a really nice interior.

Just got in after a good day at the event. It was nice to be able to put some faces with usernames. Scott and Kevin let me hang out with them all day. Kevin can drive!!!! Scott had me laughing all day. Met Matt from Anvil, very nice guy. I also ran into Mike Burrow (I can't remember his username) nice guy that smiles alot when he's driving the autoX in his 70 Camaro. It was a great day, even after getting home and looking in the mirror....has anyone ever seen a red raccoon? My sun glasses have great uv protection.

Scott, Mike thanks guys.... The truth of the matter is you guys make it a blast for me attend these events. As was well put " the gang of people" that are running in these events and on the boards here make this way too much fun.....
I've been blessed with the good fortune to attend many events over the past few years (have a wife that is cool with it) and it just seems to get better at every one of them....
Thanks for the kind words,,,, and thanks even more for letting me hang out with you all when I travel in the States to the events....
