They have a website www.nationaltrailraceway.com - click under track info and it will give you a list of the local hotels. Weather calling for scattered showers thru Saturday!

The track has alot of parking ..but part of it is on a hillside. The track it's self is about a .10 slow so plan for that. (i don't know why it just is) Their is holets close..their's a Red Roof INN not more then 3 miles from the track. It's located at the RT 37 & I 70 intersection. Now for the weather.....this is where columbus get's it's bad name....it will rain thur fri & sat...it may only rain for an hour but it will make the air so sticky ya can't stand it! Then again you guys are from the "deep south" you should feel right at home! LOL have a safe trip! :)

Re: Columbus Div 3 Pts meet
 

Track is actually 10-15 miles east of Columbus on I-70. Hebron Exit I believe. It is well marked with signs. Exit and then left to 40 and then another left to track. If coming up 75 through Cincinnati take I-71 north to Columbus as 75 has construction above Cincy.
Slowness of track is combination of Air and Altitude. I think it is almost factor height.
Safe trip Dick Butler No TOP/SS at Lucas meets this year. Good Luck

We were there saturday for the Night of Thunder racing our jr. The scoreboards weren't working as they had been hit by lightning and i was told the scales have been broke for quite awhile. Looks like they have some work to do this week to be ready.
