We'd go up to Michigan motor speedway for years and the thing i remember most besides the nightlife at the campground was the beer cans constantly raining underneath the stands, Cans were allowed and you would get rid of them under the stand. I bet alot of them were Bush cans

Eric, I think you have to go further south before they start eating things like cow brains. I know they eat that kind of stuff over there in Brunstuckey, but that's an exception.

THE SHORTS WERE RED!!! It was the camera, I swear. A lot tamer than Taladega, Alan, and our own PRIVATE portajohn on top of that. Please notice that the ladder IS safety strapped to the trailer. but still can become something to negotiate after some indulgence. The meat is definitely what's referred to here as a pork butt, often done on a rotisserie(sp) but we normally pile the coals all to the side and just let it be for about 4-5 hours, and your're right Randy, it is tasty. We also have 1/2 dozen flavors of wings going all day in the fryer.
Quite a few Gordon fans around but they catch their share of abuse in our camp. Excluding our group, there are lots of members here of the organization F.A.G. also; that's Fans Against Gordon. Where is BFN87 (James Bragg), as I was hoping to have him at the race? |

Great set up reid. That infield looks a little more tame than Dega. When we first started going to the races there we were just tent camping, the wife had to use the portajohn so she went for a walk. Came back 15 minutes later with 2 marriage proposals and a whole new understanding of the term "git her done". Now she only goes off on her own with our Rottie by her side. Just a bunch of good ole boys having fun but man it can get a little out there.

Chris, Hers wat wi gat, heer at tha trac in carlotte. (OK, I got my spelling jab in). For a flat piece of ground, assuming you mean somewhere to crash, we have the downstairs bedroom in the cottage where MM & Blondie will we taking the upstair room. We have several guys that stay at the track in their campers on our site, but I usually just go out on Sunday and play at the lake Saturday.
Below are pics from our set-up at the track taken from either on top of the platform looking down or up at it. As you can tell the view is great and higher in elev than many seats in the stands and allowing a view of the cars all the way around the track. Plus the jumbo-trons close by in the infield are great. We are on the highest point of the entire infield which is built up here for a road course track bank. We buy the passes, actually an armband now, at the track when we enter under the third turn tunnel. And some really good food to boot. That's chef ReidP on butt duty. EDIT: We also have the big tent/canopy so you can stay out of the heat OR rain, and two satellite TVs to watch replays as well as the Indy race run just prior. All you have to do is show up. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Guys: I think Blondie's camera already gets a good work-out with MM on the sandbar.

Lisa I guarantee you will love it since you're obviously up for adventure. And Alan's right, your camera can be put to good use. Just three weeks from this weekend! |

But we'll have to vote on it.Ether way I'll be wet saturday. If I can get him to commit soon I'll give you a call - Thanks for the invite. |

Mark, the race is Sunday the 26th, with Monday being Memorial Day. The race typically starts 5-6:00PM and runs on til about 11:00PM. Don't worry about bringing the boat as it can turn a quick trip into a chore, and we'll have one here for you to commandeer with pleasure. I'm gonna pencil you in.
jbear, We ARE your family, so you need to choose between those gap-toothed, knuckle-draggin, scraggly-headed Berrys and us. Never mind, I just described half of CCFan so you're excused and we'll hope to see you in August. |
