Hope your all having a fun after Thanksgiving weekend.

Yeah, we are here along with a couple other bus nuts... good luck finding each other in this crowd, though.  Great show, jam-packed with vendors and all kinds of good stuff.

OK, I couldn't stand it so I googled turkey run and watched some youtube stuff. Looks like a pretty good run. I seen an ariel shot of the track. Where do you park the bus and camp?? Do they have hook ups?
I go to the US Nationals in Louisville KY. and we camp basically right on the same lot (but seperated) as the Rods. They also have 50 and 30 amp hookups, if you get registered in time, dumps and access to water. It's a pretty good set up. And that's not even considering the 10,000+ cars!!! I have seen as many as 13,000+ cars. You guys should consider it some time. OR, maybe the Frog Follies. They are still pre-'49 hot rods. I don't think they will sell out like NSRA did. I like it like Good Guys do it - pre-'73. NSRA is going toooooooo late model.
Any hot rod Flexi's???  I seen a couple at Auburn!
  Have a ton o' fun!!!!!!!

Cliff  where did you park the coach. I have been going to the bike week since the early 70`s. Taking a camper than the coach since the early 80`s. Was 25$ to park in the west parking lot for the week the first time I went.

The last time 2 years ago they wanted 300$ for the coach and 300$ for the trailer. Refused to pay for the trailer and said that would be the last trip.

That was the year that they opened up the new runnel out through the west parking lot and every night what was in the infield changed in the early morning. noise and dust was bad.

Would like to go back this march if i can find a place to park.  Close to the west so we can go to the Alligator an gncc cross country races. Also hate they moved the flat track from the old place.  best show there.

We are at International RV park.  We stayed at the KOA last year, but after checking out this place we are hooked.
Regular is $30 a night, but bike and speed week are $100-125 a night.  But everywhere else around here is the same. less than a mile from the speedway.

Really nice layout, easy in and out for a coach even when full,  full hook ups, pool, caters to the motorheads.

I think one was Ray........

Couldn't catch up!

But like you said....Big Crowd...

No Pics, but I found some really cool stuff a guy cuts out with a CNC plasma.

I picked up a old style GMC trucks logo and some other metal stuff for the "bus barn" deco.
