    its worth going even for the day!!

    I know people who went at the last minute last year and got a room. It was about 10 miles from the show but when you've driven 8 Hours, what's another 20 minutes?

    I went last year, and maybe it was because of the weather, but I thought it sucked, and was very disappointed that I even went. Tinley NARBC blows Daytona away, from what I saw last year. Both the show and the party. I wouldn't drive for 14 hours to go back.

    We just check in, then go to the room - they don't do room checks or head counts. And we just put up a do not disturb sign the entire time we're there. Every other day they hang a bag on the door with new towels and soap, etc. (The past years I've stayed Wed night through Monday).

    Sadly - I'm not going to Daytona this year - but I'll be at Tinley - at the LaQuinta! :D
