Nope - NasCar racing. I'm taking the BC up next Sunday, set-up, go home to work and then return on Wednesday for the truck races. If others are coming up Wednesday and staying thru the Sprint races, maybe we could get together. There will be 4-5 other HL coaches in the same campground we are in.

I agree that Lakeview is a great campground and thinking about having the Tennessee rally there in the future. The downfall with the campground is that it's a liitle far from the track. The cg we stay at is less than a 1/4 mile from the track, e-z walk.
ArchBarb - sorry ya'll can't make it this year. We stay til Sunday, leaving by noon. By then the camper traffic is pretty well gone and clear sailing to the interstate.

We are leaving on Aug. 17th to head down. Dropping our rig at our campsite and then going to Charlotte for a couple days to visit my wife's brother. He has friends at Hendrick so they are gonna show us around. Maybe check out the hall of fame and head back to Bristol on Wednesday so we are back in time for some racing.

I'd like to plan on doing that next year. How hard is it to get tickets for the races and what campground is best. Ken

Man I am so jealous!!!! That is going to be so much fun and I sure wish I could be there! Haven't been to a NASCAR race in about 5 years. It's time to get going back,lol!!! Used to go to Daytona every year when we lived in Florida. I have only been to Texas Motor Speedway once since moving here. I was born and raised inKnoxville, TN and have always wanted to go to Bristol but never got the opportunity yet.

I get my tickets from brokers now. I used to have a friend that had season tickets and I bought his when he didn't use them. I used Razor Gator for the Sprint Cup tickets and I think it was Tickets America for Nationwide. I stay at Farmer Bob's Campground. I book early and get a site with water supply. Also you can run generators 24 hours a day there too and sometimes it is HOT there.

glfair and Steve - glad ya'll are coming up. We are taking the Big Country up this Sunday afternoon getting in about 3. If you have a chance, come on over to where we are camping for chit-chat/supper or both. We are at 186 OTBR on Old Thomas Bridge Rd about a quarter mile from the track (turn 3 side). We have 50 amp service and water with honey wagons running every hour on the hour (at least that what it seems like). The owners (Gail and Dennis Muncl) are great folks to work with. Troy Phillips (troybuilt71) who has a Sundance is also camping with us as well as a North Trail and an Elkridge. Byrd will be there Wednesday afternoon with us planning on leaving Sunday morning.
Ken - tickets are pretty ez to find on ebay or on the Bristol site but there are more folks selling them on the street. Hope you and Faye can plan on coming up sometime. It's a blast people watching or just sitting around talking with other race fans from across the country.

We had an awesome time in Bristol. Great racing and we made a lot of new friends. We had a great time meeting Byrd, Nathan and Troy. Who would have thought we would have traveled to TN. to meet and chat with Heartland owners. We also so many Heartland products on the highway. Too many to mention. Only one minor issue with our rig in 2400 miles of travel.
