Hotel Rooms and Pitting Information
As of 01/02 the Ramada Resort is full. We have almost doubled the room
total we had last year. I have received many emails from racers about
racing - and yes you can still sign up if do not stay at the Ramada.
There are several hotels literally next door and we will have pit areas
setup with PA and tables and chairs so you can have a place to pit near the
track. All these areas are first-come first-serve and will be covered.
We will have a spot for you if you are not staying at the Ramada.
Quality Inn: 407-996-1600
rates are under $40.00
this is right next door
Holiday Inn:
407-351-3500
rates are $59.00 - ask for
Snowbird rate - 1st class hotel
2-way Radios to Broadcast Race
We
will have a 2-way radio that will be set on a specific channel
(1-14) and
you can tune yours in to listen to the announcing so you can keep up with the
race and schedule wherever you are (maybe even across the street at the
resturaunts). Click on the picture above to see the Bellsouth radio - they are $14.97 at the Wal-Marts in Fl. Any
brand will work - as long as they say 14 channels. These say they will
work up to 2 miles away. You can get these
radios anywhere and chances are you may have one already or a fiend may have
one you can share with.
