As long as you have early entry you can get in today, that's usually reserved RV. I have a tent but have a reserved spot cause it was where we camped before they turned it over to reserved and I spend my money wisely

Hoping to be on road by 6:45 tomorrow (gods timezone) depending on early morning haircut schedule. Puts me at a late evening arrival time. Although my car this year has a smaller fuel tank so not sure I can pull the 1 stop strategy.

I'm bringing wheat straw and a canopy tomorrow, along with some Halloween lights. Hopefully before noon.

Good, you can help me set up my tent when I get there!

fieldodreams79 · 11 Oct 2023, 02:04 (Ref:4180940)

Check that. No on track action until 135 so that's when I'm for. Someone might have to explain to me how i access my tickets.

As long as it's during the Mazda session, so I can't hear your instructions.

So they are trying to be cool and hip and it's just a PIA.

My souvenir program is "a seat" let's back out 3x for "my tickets" and the program one has no bar code, so maybe I'll show them my email confirmation? Again, I'm old man in a mid age body, but just let me print to pdf and call it a day, please! Not everything needs a Gdamn app.

You should endeavor to get here as soon as you can. Even with reserved spots, fighting people off becomes a full time job. As much as I love this place, I'd love to be sleeping in my own bed tonight but I can't.

On road

Not joking. I just drove past two cars with personalized license plates that rent the following MOIST1 and then CREAMY

Just made first stop after 4 hours and 15 minutes. Never gone this far on a tank in this car.

Still don't see any Mazda flags.

JT240Z · 11 Oct 2023, 17:25 (Ref:4181017)

It does seem like the crowd this year is a lot more aggressive about getting and maintaining their spots.

fieldodreams79 · 11 Oct 2023, 18:11 (Ref:4181021)

On track action and calm before mild storms tonight. And some creep is hanging out with us.

fergus_r · 11 Oct 2023, 18:25 (Ref:4181024)

...and some off-track action if you're the green Mazda

**joeb** · 11 Oct 2023, 23:49 (Ref:4181043)

It's raining
