Some advice Re: Chrysler Nationals Carlisle 2015

1. Should I park with the show cars? If so, would you recommend we bring a dining canopy and a couple of chairs for sitting near the car?
2.How's the food there?
3.Is there anything anyone would recommend about the Red Roof Inn?
1. Yes, enter the show field and be proud of your car! If bringing a tent, make sure you have it secured...A few years ago I remember a tent flying through the show field and damaging some cars!
2. Food is good. There are some reasonably priced vendors outside the fairgrounds by Gate 7.
3. A BIG Thumbs Down for the Red Roof Inn. I stayed there last year and they "lost" my reservation...Imagine the frustration knowing all other hotels are full! Take a look at my thread for specific details about the Red Roof Inn here:

This year I am staying at the Sleep Inn with an advance purchase rate of $127.20 a night.
Only catch is you have to book for 3 nights.

I'll be at vendor space O-203, so stop in and say hi...have a seat and get out of the sun for a while!
