All small hotels. Any big one's like we had in Indy or Phoenix?

Heartland is pretty nice I think. They do have NHRA events and hold crowds/parking very well.

To have a true "host hotel" I imagine Camaro5 would like to block off at least 250 rooms initially with the option to open up 50 to 100 more rooms depending on how quickly the rooms get booked up once the announcement is made on this forum.
The hotel in Phoenix probably had at least 300 rooms dedicated to Camaro5 once all was said and done, purely based on how many cars we had in the parking lot of the hotel Camaro5 tried doing the "multiple smaller hotels all next to each other" for this past Fest in Baytown, and I don't think the people or Camaro5 really liked that option too much, because it spreads everyone out and makes it feel smaller than it really is. Baytown actually had a really nice turn out, but if you only looked out on your own hotel's parking lot, it didn't feel like the big event that it was...

God bless Atco Dragway. Hope it lives forever! I never saw an NHRA event there, but I did see a few thrill shows, including the "Benny the Bomb" spectacular back in the 80's .

500 or a couple of hotels next to each other. The SpringHill didn't have many rooms but it had conference facilities so the large lot. Most hotels only have spaces for the number of rooms.
Hotel is a real important part of the fest and it was not optimal this year. Parties were spread out. |

You know something just occurred to me. If the Fest is always in April/May most of the north is still dealing with snow that time of year.
To hell with that... lol Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk

LOL.. no it's not. If we are up North it's in the Summer like it was two years in August. Down South to beat the heat it needs to be earlier.
