Then on to the next leg of our day. We both needed to dump our motorhomes and get fresh water. So on Monday at Indy, I called and made reservations for us to stay Tues and Wed nights at the local KOA here close to the track. Well we got off the interstate and headed down this little winding, hilly road til we get to the KOA. They said they had 2 pull-thru campsites that were 100' long when I talked with them on the phone. What they didn't tell you was that you had to go up and down hills and make sharp turns to get to them. Well, after dragging the back of the trailer and the front of the trailer and back of the motorhome, we decided if we could get back out, we were getting out of there. So we did. They very graciously gave us our money back. (I think they wanted to be rid of us!)
So anyway, we get out of there and still haven't dumped or gotten water. Paula calls the track and they said if we could get here by 6, we could dump and get water here after she gave them out sob story. So thanks to Bristol Motorsports Park, we are set to go for the weekend. Oh and we needed propane and we got Marsh LP to bring us some, since at one point we ended up across the road from them. And then when Larry opened the storage door where the tank is, we weren't really out like I had told him, but just starting on the red line that says 1/4. So then he is mad at me! But thru it all, we made it to the track and are stacked! We did need a group hug and some adult beverages after that day! And Kenny Miracle--we won't ask you for directions anymore! That shortcut was about a good hour longer!! But come on over for a beer when you get here anyway! ![]() ![]() |

SG 2122 we came in on the drag strip side on route 394. Hope this helps. I have been putting numbers on the rigs, to help avoid confusion when they start to pull us in. When you get to the main entrance for the dragstrip, you will see the sign that says to continue on 394 on up the hill and turn in to stack.
