Default Re: saving spot in Div 1

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.

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.

I've been alot of places but never Atco but whether I got there early or late I always park where they put me. Blows my mind that people think its ok to save a bunch of places for their buddies, if you want to park together then you should all come together. Sounds like a bunch of BS to me, its hard enough to park everyone without having to skip over a bunch of tape and cones and try to make it work out right.

Ha, funny James. Nice to see you make the trip. Parking is not bad if you get here by Thursday, black top parking is pretty much filled up by Wednesday night. Lots of spots are saved, but the track does move the cones and tape when need. No spots are guaranteed except for what I posted. Its not as bad as some say it is. If you get there by Thursday night you will have a decent spot.
