Hey just a canadian looking for advince on the best place to stay, we wanna be able to chill out, drink some beer, talk about racing with racers and fans. I noticed there is a Best Western 5 miles from the trak and a Americana Hotel? Both look nice and decent price.

Where is everyone setting up camp for the weekend. Well be there with some canadian brew and looking for a good time. We have also heard rumors of the place called fantasy land.... its some backwoods barn with nekkid girlies.. hehehe

 

someone already posted this but ohwell my car should be there either in t4 or power street

 

hmmm Ill have to look for the thread.. I didnt see it, my bad

 

The three main local hotels are the Econolodge, Best western, and Amerihost in Norwalk on Rte. 250.

 

cool thanks Ron, are they all decent hotels... im not super picky, but dont wanna stayin a dive.. I have seen stayed in some pretty cracked out places.

If you were recommneding to someone which one would you recommend.. the Best Western looks nice... but pictures can hide lots.

 

We also might be going to this event too (Nutekracing) Do they allow people to camp at the track? we are ghetto as most people know lol we dont mind sleeping in the van or tents.

 

THe host hotel is a holiday inn and only $69 per night according to NOPI website. I'm going down for the action (hopefully). Should be booking hotel soon.

 

I'm think about coming down with some buddies. Not sure if we are going to bring a car or not at this time.

 

Depends on how the next couple of race's go but I'm hoping to be there
as well.

Steve

I thin the best western comes in cheaper.. and is closer... hmmmmm...

 

Anyone know what airport is the closest?

 

I would guess Cleveland CLE it would probably be the easiest here is a mapquest from the airport to the track http://www.mapquest.com/direct...-9548

 

I'll be staying at the host hotel... Holiday Inn.

 

I will be there with 5-6 other cars all runnin power street

Greg let me know what hotel your thinking about, maybe we can set up Camp Canada or something... put all our asses at one hotel and party...

Were thinking about rippin donw on Friday afternoon/evening, just to get there and settled in and take in all the action Saturday-saturday night-sunday... Im pumped and getting excited. Its been a while since Ive gone to a US race. BTW... Steve_M will have to fill us all in on the fantasy land directions..

 

Cleveland Hopkins is the closest and is a ~45 minute drive out to Norwalk. Akron also has an airport but it is probably a good 1.5-2 hours away.

The Best Western and the Amerihost are both pretty nice. The Econo is crummier but the layout is better do to it only being one floor and everyone has a door right out to the parking lot. There is also a Super 8 another 7-10 minutes north of these hotels. I'm not positive where the Holiday Inn is though.

Not to be a smartass about which airport is closest. But does anyone know if it's possible to crossover the end of the drag stip to the regional airport on the other side of the road that intersects with the strip?
