I was there yesterday, got my six spots and parked and know what I saw when I left.

If you want a good spot you don't wait to show up till 3 days after parking started!

It's Atco, IIRC, there were over 400 cars last year.

What class will you be running in?

Re: saving spot in Div 1

We pulled in Orlando for the Div II race this year at about 1pm on Thursday. The entrance side pits were empty and we were told to go to the other side, after circling the pits a couple of times we drove back to the pit entrance and told the young lady there that if it was OK we would pit on the entrance side which we had done in the past as there were no spots that were not filled or saved. She asked us to follow her back into the pits, she stopped at a racer's pit who had about four spots saved and told him he had to take some of the tape down and allow us to pit there. He told her right quick he promised the spots to late arrivals and he refused her request. She backed down and we pitted on the other side which is what we wanted to do in the first place.
Sad story as he was very rude to the young lady and directed some of his comments to us and I may have mentioned to him what he might want to do with HIS spots.
I have saved spots as most racers have at one time or another but I think 99% of racers would give them up immediately if asked by track personnel to do so.

Re: saving spot in Div 1

I will be going down Thursday
The way I see yellow tape is ......Must be saving that spot for ME !
I will circle1 time and I ain’t parking in the dirt in the back or the return road
Then I pick a spot. It Works.
I mean I m there to test before some local New Jersey guy ropes off 6 spots and shows up Friday morning ....... Homie Don’t Play That !!
Are you f%@&$ kidding. I pay the same as everyone else
So I do what I gotta do and park DONE

I'll be sure to bring my industrial size magnet on wheels! By the way I found a spot over near Cecil to park but thanks for your offer.

Re: saving spot in Div 1

I just left Atco. Looks like there's still a few asphalt spots open but the gamblers racers are in them for tonight's race. Plenty of spots on gravel. I didn't mind it for Rob's race this past weekend.
