A DIFFERENT Trip Report

Leonard Socenski... Lance Camper dealer in Seviorville for years took a Lance to every NASCAR Race on the east coast.

Lance MFG supplied one of the drivers with a new Lance TC every year and it went to the races... the driver slept in his motor home.

Leonard got the year old camper every year and had it for sale. I remember seeing it at a Nashville RV show... TCNTN could fill in the blanks... I met him there.

Janet believes the driver was the driver was tall and had dark hair. I think his name might have been Martin...

Leonard always parked in the infield... the camper had Adventure Rv on the side... Leonard parked too close to the end of a row... barely legal... the announcers kept asking for the truck camper owner from Adventure.RV to please move their camper... Leonard ignored the pleas... said it was the best advertizing he ever had.

He stayed away with friends till the end of the race.

Leonard like most fans drove like a mad man as he left the race track... said he had to keep up.

=================================



BTW.. you passed within 14 miles of us on I-40, exit 376... we'd have bought your dinner for you... plugged you up at the house.

I purchased two Lance campers from Leonard's Adventure RV - a 1985 Lance 200 and a 1999 Lance 1030.

When I picked up my Lance 1030, they had Sterling Marlin's Dodge truck and Lance camper for sale as a package deal. Sterling's Lance Camper and Dodge Truck

I thought of you and Janet as I passed by the exit for Oak Ridge, TN. We left Marion, AR Friday morning at 0430 CDT and arrived Bristol Speedway around 1400 EDT. Monday morning, we left Bristol Speedway at 0400 EDT and probably passed that exit around 0615 EDT. I was home in Fayetteville, AR at 1800 CDT.

I will try to stop by some time when I am not running as hard.
