The 1 spot rule is an official rule put out by Div 1 just ask the Division director Dave Mohn. if you think i am making it up. And no kidding that we all try to park on the side of our trailers.that is considered one spot. it is when people take and tape off 5 or 6 double spots that it gets out of hand.

Where? I've never seen it in print and if it is, it ain't enforced and Dave knows how I feel about parking.

Don't matter, I've got my six spots and I can tell you most all the spots on asphalt are already taken.

If you show up Friday, expect to park back in the woods or out on the entrance road.

I saved only 1 spot for Bob & Penny Bender next to my trailer with clearly marked cones . And I put off the back to save room .The race on sat & Sunday was packed with racers . There was most likely anouce mentioned over the PA.That a didn't here .

According to the folks at Atco most of this post is not true. They say to contact them if someone is trying to hold 6 spots and that most of the asphalt is still open. So don't let this guy discourage anyone from going to the race. Now the weather is a different story.

nowhere in my replies did I say anything to discourage anyone from going!

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.

1320, I have always thought Atco was one of the best Div. one tracks. I have not been there in a few years due to lack of a car. In the past I have taken time off from work and personal life to get there early and have a better pit spot. I think saving one spot for someone is great but after that it should be first come first serve. Exceptions should be for sponsor's. I will be there late Wednesday and I'm sure I will get a great spot. You are right they do have a lot of room and a weekend at the track and off from work is a great weekend. Oh yah by the way could you save me a spot at the end of the staging area. Near that DeMarzo guy. And to anyone reading this IT IS NOT A COW !!! Thanks Barry

A reminder for racers heading to Atco. Below is a photo for parking. The yellow area are for sponsors, the red area are for alcohol and the green area are for Comp and Top Dragster, Top Sportsman. The rest of the parking is for all other categories. I was ask to post this to give racers a heads on were they can park. As far as saving spots, the track reserves the right to park rigs as they see fit. When space becomes an issue, saved spots could be utilized. Suggestion, try to get saved spots occupied as soon as possible.
