Camping at Road Atlanta in 2015
Looking at going to the Petit Lemans at Road Atlanta next year and need advice on what to expect. I've got three sons and a 32' Keystone Outback. I'd like to camp at the race track but know its a dry ...

We went out just for the day this year to check it out.
Best camp site location for viewing the race?
Some of the purchase spots are right on track, very $$$.
Cool thing, is you are able to roam and go all around the track, through pits, etc…..so I brought in a bike and traveled around.
If camping inside the track, is it hard to get in and out?
Gets congested, but cars come and go. We parked outside, pedaled in. Parking outside gets pretty spaced out, and there is only one road in & out, so a little hard to come & go during race. You would be able to come and go, once staged inside, you get a car pass.
What facilities are available, etc.
General bathrooms, is all I saw. There are vendors, fair food, car stuff
Are there some areas more crazy that others?Overall, most camping BBQ’ing, watching races, relaxing,playing games, etc. during the race, lots of cars to check out inside, as well as races. Did not see any outrageous behavior, a lot of cruising around, cars, tractors, golf carts, bikes, etc..
IS a reserved site worth the extra expense?
IF I can't secure a power site, will it be too hot to enjoy?
This year, pretty mild/cool day.
Are generators allowed?
Definitely
Any help is appreciated
To get a general spot, most go in, Wed or Thurs (and there is races, Thursday, Friday, with main race on Sat). This going in early, stopped us from RV’ing this year. If you have the time to do Wed-Sun (a lot going on at the track).
Much of the infield & track is NOT LEVEL, amazing hilly, couple fields for campers.
Bikes are good way to get around.
