Review of Road America

Just sitting down as I unpack, back home in Milwau...

Just sitting down as I unpack, back home in Milwaukee, post IMSA at Road America 2020 weekend. I've been there many times but never stayed overnight, until now. RA has to be a top 3 racetrack in the world. Sometimes I think we WI racing fans are a little spoiled and don't realize how lucky we are. Amenities are second to none for other racetracks. Ice, firewood, and RV water services are available on site. The food quality and variety is unheard of in the auto racing world, as far as I know. Thing to be aware of - if rain is imminent, seek high ground or pack up before it gets there! Do not plan on getting around on foot all day. Bicycle is my favorite method of transportation but there is a shuttle running that will get you around to the many great viewing areas. Some areas are more quiet than others late at night. Be cautious when driving around, most people are safe and courteous but you do get some wing nuts. It ain't cheap but this is a special occasion venue, IMO. Buy your tickets way in advance to save substantial money. 1500 campsites available!
