Glenn,
I have tented at both the track and the KOA just down the road. I
suspect the KOA is full by now, but you should call and check. The only
problem with camping at the track is that they do not have showers. A
solution is to use one of those portable camper showers. They hold about
5 gallons of water, and you leave it out in the sun to warm during the
day.
I will be running my Lotus 6 at the track this weekend. Stop by and say
hi, my car number is 953.
Regards,
Phil Roettjer

Subject: Camping at Watkins
Long time lister, first time poster to this team.net group, I'm more
active on some of the others. No vintage race car, yet, but there is
always hope. My MGB V8 conversion is a lot of fun, but hardly vintage
racing material. This would actually be our first "vintage race" event.
My wife and I are going to try to get down to Watkins for most of this
weekend.. Since I'm sure all the hotels / B&Bs etc. are long since
booked for this weekend, we are probably going to spend a couple of
nights in a tent.
It looks like there are two choices, tenting at the track, or at the KOA
campground. It looks like the track is primarily set up for RVs.
Does anyone have experience with tenting at either place and would like
to offer up an opinion?
Thanks,
Glenn
