For all of you that have pre-registered, we have sent an email to you about next Sunday and to let you know that we received your registration. If you haven't registered, just look at the links below and if you have any questions, just let us know.

Camping & pre-show info for Saturday Oct 15th.
The track does have an event that day. They open the gates at 10:30am. See the photo for all the details. Just let them know that you are coming for the VW event and they will let you in.
If you are camping in the back field, you will be able to go ahead and park and get setup since there is nothing happening back there. If you are a vendor or show car participant, you will have to wait until the racers have left before you can get in your spot. I would suggest later in the afternoon so the racers will be leaving and you can get in your spot and start setting up. If you are unsure where to park, just ask. We will be there that afternoon and will make sure everyone is where they need to be. Many of you have been numerous times, so you know where to go.
We will go around that evening and collect for Sunday's event.
If you have any questions, please let us know and share this with your friends.

If anyone is driving over from the RDU area, I'm heading out around 0500 tomorrow and taking 64 if you want to join up.

[hazetguy]

Weather was excellent. Swap was big. There seemed to be a lot of people there, more than usual for the fall event.

For future reference:
The last two times there have been drag events on Saturday, they did not finish racing until 10:00pm. Not an issue if you are camping in the outer field, but if you are a vendor wanting to set up on Sat night, you'll need to wait late into the night till the drag racers leave, as their trailers and set ups are in the vendor area.

This past event, Oct 2016, there was some [expletives deleted] guy in the swap area who thought it would be a wonderful idea to run his large, unenclosed gas powered generator ALL NIGHT Saturday and ALL DAY Sunday, non-stop, until he left at about 3pm Sunday. I heard NUMEROUS complaints about the noise from campers and show attendees. Nobody I spoke with could figure out what he was powering. I couldn't see or tell what he was needing to power for 20+/- hours straight.
Is there a way, Kathy and Keith, that you can "implement" some kind of "quiet time" / no-generator time for future shows?

[GarryA]

Thank you John for bringing up the noise issue at the track during the night.
It did seem excessive and annoying. There was the same issue at the spring show.
