Default The lodge @ VIR but it is most likely booked.

we have stayed at, i believe, at the Marriott Courtyard in downtown Danville. It was nice and breakfast was free and they got a pool.

Default Sleep Inn & Suites

Audi Club Potomac always uses this place, in addition to the Lodge and Paddock suites at the track.

Default I believe NASA will allow camping right in the paddock...

they did for Feb & March. Tho July may be waaay too unbearably hot for camping.

Default ACNA doesn't pay the extra fee to allow participants to camp

I had checked it out with the track before. When camping is allowed the need to have a few extra people on staff to patrol and be available during the night. I don't think there's enough interest/people to justify it, plus the weekends we are there is not usually for the 'fair weather campers.'
