Host hotel and local campground update

I'm currently in talk with Holiday inn Express (10906 NEW HAVEN ROAD HARRISON, OHIO 45030) which is about 15-20ish mins away from the track about being the host hotel. There is a super 8 across the street from this holiday inn with plenty of parking also. Also being right off the interstate, there is plenty of restaurants etc around. I will keep everyone posted if I can get a special rate worked out for everyone. Their are multiple hotels though around the track being so close to Cincinnati, Harrison Ohio etc. 

Miami Whitewater forest campground is the closest to the track only being 5 mins away from it. If you plan on camping this is probably you best choice for being close track. 


I just called and there is no special rate at the Holiday Inn Express.
However, I did get a much cheaper rate at the Super 8.  https://www.guestreservations.com/super-8-harrison-oh/booking

I plan to camp at the track on Thursday night...

Damian,
If i may suggest...
If you noticed when we hosted GAD, the 2nd chance class started 2nd round and was last class to run, That allowed 2nd round losers to have the chance to inter the class..

But remember you are in charge, not me...

I actually haven't did the host motel rate at the Holiday inn due to the lack of interest. I can for sure get that set up for everyone though. Super 8 is usually way cheaper than holiday and as alot of people have mentioned to me, camping at the track seems very popular this year. Good suggestion Mike and will mostly do it that way. Would also give everyone alittle more chance to make some passes down the track.

I want to do a huge shootout to Josh, Jeff and everyone at Kennedy American AMC Parts for coming on board this year and sponsoring GAD, without everyone's support this event couldn't happen at all. 
Also, it's alittle over a month until Great Amc Day 2022 at Edgewater Sports Park so let's do a official roll call. Who is going to be bring what
Looking forward to see everyone and having another Great AMC Day with hopefully the best turnout ever!

I’ll be there in the 73 Hornet. The car won’t be racing but will be in the show. Bringing a few non AMC buddies to show them what it’s like in a distant galaxy.
