I like these threads, usually end up meeting someone new people through them.

Who’s going to Millville this year? Camping? Race day only?

I’ll be heading there early tomorrow morning to set up camp since it’s suppose to be a stormy night tonight. I’ll post a pic of my campsite once I’m there and anyone who sees it, make sure to say what’s up if I’m there!

Im leaving for Seattle on Friday (from WI), and will be back the following friday. So I'll miss both Washougal, and Spring Creek, but will be so close to both.

Bring mosquito spray.

Planning attending Saturday. Sounds like it will be very hot and humid with a chance of rain.

In for Saturday race only. Too many years down there fighting the mud.

They received heavy rain early this AM and more coming tonight. Going to be soft, rough and brutal conditions for amateurs with 90-95 temps and 100-105 heat index for Friday. Saturday looks better for pro's with temps in mid 80's.

Should be great racing with pro's having extra week to re-energize and heal up. It's there is anytime for top guys to step it up and make push for points this will be the weekend..

Nice added feature to see more racing with 125 All Stars. Seen where Mike Brown will be racing. Remember him over jumping landing by 20' and landing in deep rut every lap in in back section before collarbone hill.

Sadly, I won't be able to make it. I'm about 1.5 hours south of there and we got 2" overnight. I think it rained harder up there.
Tomorrow, mid 90's, sunny, and HUMID.
Sat/Sun - upper 80's HUMID.

And like StevieTimes said, Bring LOTS of bug spray. Best to bring 'BugIns', Absorbine Jr, and your normal Off stuff. These 3 things will help you from getting eaten alive.

Any of you guys know if backpacks are allowed? Maybe I need to dust off my fanny pack?

They are allowed, security will search it but that's about it.

Been there since Tuesday morning.
The rain gods have been active, but AM practice today is looking good.
The track crew makes lots of good things happen.
Should be a golden weekend.

Pits are in good shape, yet. Little mushy since the humidity makes it hard to dry up and the suns not really out yet. I thought they were going to get more rain then they did last night but looks like it might be on and off again tonight and Friday night.

Hopefully it doesn’t rain too much!

Got my site all set up! I’m still amazed at what all I can fit in my little 2-door hatchback. Say what’s up if you see me over there! Going to go check out the track now. I’ll try to snap some pictures for y’all that can’t make it.

Did it ever! Was hoping to keep the inside windows open to get a breeze going but like you mentioned it totally dumped on us and flooded the grounds for a bit since it came so quick. The rain may have been a blessing at the time it came though because it cooled off quite a bit I actually ended up using a blanket last night. Surprisingly decent conditions! Tonight on the other hand...

Learned that I have a few holes in the bottom of my tent (and apparently my air mattress too) but all in all, not bad. Luckily today is going to be nice so everything should dry out. Anyone that’s coming and isn’t here yet, be sure to bring your mud boots and an umbrella just in case. OH and a broom so I can sweep all this dried up dirt out of my tent. I forgot to bring one!

Wouldn’t even mind watching in light rain/low 70s after a scorching hot week outside in the Twin Cities. Can’t wait!
