If all else fails, on Landracing.com there is a recent thread about a place in Salt Lake City that will rent you a travel trailer, haul it to the bend in the road, set it up, then pick it up when you leave. I have no idea the cost, but the thread said after all is said and done, it was rather reasonable. www.rentmotorhome.com


Have a great time, I wont get there untill September.

Don, thanks for that , may be an option for futer meets, Looks like motel in Salt Lake city & drive each day. Just as well fuel is cheep there not like $9 gallon here, Derek.
 
Damn!!! Please don't tell any politicians that fuel is cheap or it will be $9 a gallon here!... LouB.
 
Please drive slow on that road. Straight as an arrow for 62 miles and one thinks he can step on it. Remember, tires on American rental cars are not all that good, hold it down to 75, 80 tops. Take lots of water in a cooler, available at Smiths on the west end of Wendover. Cover your head, use SPF 45 or 50 sunscreen, put it on every two hours. Also, the salt sun reflects up. Up your nose, up your pants, in the folds of your ears. Dont try to drive into the pits the first three days, after the crowd leaves, you may be able to. Wear shoes so you can walk a mile or two. You can drive to the start line, the fuel trailer to see the weather station and buy Tee shirts, the SCTA trailer, park on the west side of the pit to walk through, and the spectator area is on the north side of the pits. Have fun, be safe. I'll be with you in spirit.
 
Thanks for advise , We will be helping out on one vehicle thats running one of our quickchange rears, Booked a night at wells & true to form now have an offer at the Nuget, A quickchange custmer can get us a room, Jim is the MAN< This site is better than a swap meet. Can smell the salt already.
 
In the past when i waited to long to make a reservation I just look and see what concerts are on that weekend in wendover the casinos save rooms for people attending them so buy the tickets and get a room last time i saw ted nudgent
