[ALANSD]

Go to ATLANTAMOTORAMA.com to register. Hit the registration button to buy a ticket. Use the drop down menu to select Vintage Camper. Its $35 for the weekend.
There is a $10 charge for electric that is not showing up yet. But go ahead and register and reserve some space. The price is good until March then it goes up.

I went to "http://www.atlantamotorspeedway.com/motorama/register/" and tried to register. There is no drop down menu to select vintage camping at this time.

when you hit the small i under 2017 Vehicle Registration you will see what is in the photo .


Choose to register as a vehicle. The 10$ electric charge will be onsite pay.

(Sorry for the confusion, If I could edit the web page I would

No water hook ups, but full bath house available.

Lots of food there as well..

and a note from the organizer:
If they want to participate in the awards and prizes with the tow vehicle or motorcycle they should register those vehicles on separate entry.
Entry will not be required for display if vintage tow vehicle if the motorcycle is in the bikes show. It will require registration or will not be allowed to be in and out of track as just transportation.

Ok, really stupid on my end. But do we register as a 2017 Motorama Vehicle or register as a 2017 Motorama Weekend Camping / General Tent RV no hook-ups???

I want to participate in "Vintage Camping" at the event.
Thanks,
StevieB

[StevieB]

So, now to put this in my calendar, when can we actually show up at the Speedway? Thursday or Friday?
Thanks,
StevieB

[Lynntalsma]

We are signed up. Looking forward to it. Thanks for coordinating this.

[ALANSD]

you should be able to get into the site on Friday. I expect to come down after rush hour like 7 or 8 PM.
Gonna be fun to see how this plays out.

[ALANSD]

Vintage Campers have been signing up for the weekend. This should be different and fun.
Hope you considering coming will go ahead and register. ATLANTAMOTORAMA.COM

Purchase a ticket and then list your camper year and type when asked.

[ALANSD]

some further detail just received...
Hours--
9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday
9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday

2 weekend passes come with each entry and you do not have to register your vintage tow vehicle unless you want to receive super prize tickets and extra people passes, also the vintage tow vehicle would be considered for awards if registered. Non vintage parking will be assigned.
As to people viewing your trailer inside-

we will publish a time for open house and campers can be toured or whatever the owner prefers.Provision will be made to display a sign or such stating open house for your camper. As for me- I choose not to let so many people inside, but that's just my choice.
And its subject to change....
Right now we are on track ( literally) for a very nice vintage camper show!

[StevieB]

So, .... do you have an idea on where we will be camping exactly, where non-vintage tow vehicles be positioned, and year and models in attendance along with names?

[ALANSD]

camping in the middle of the track infield..
Tow vehicles will be parked in their own area, unless vintage also.
Not sure where yet. I have a walk through in a few weeks with the staff.

I can't/won't post names of attendees. Many are not Forums members.. I don't yet have a look at the roster either or I could post the trailer models and years...
Thanks for the interest

[ALANSD]

My walk through and meeting is schedule for tomorrow. I hope to have more info and answers for those who have asked questions.

Stay tuned.

I had a tour of the facilities at AMS today and was very impressed with the layout and the plans. The area where our vintage campers will be parked is a large blacktop with a number of mostly level sites. Electric hookups at each site ( 20 amp). Water is available nearby, but will not be run to the campers. You can fill a bucket or such if you choose.

-Open house will be both days from noon to 4, you can choose to participate or not to, by displaying on "Open House" sign in your window.

-Special trophies and awards can be won by the campers on display.

In this same area there will be a motorcycle show on one end, and a Barbecue competition on that side as well.
A stage for live music will be in front of the area with all of us getting a good show. If you are a picker bring your 'axe' as after the show we can use the stage to jam or sing.

Bathrooms with showers are nearby, after a brief walk through a gate to another section. Not a long walk.

The staff is encouraging vintage campers to arrive on Friday. The morning or early afternoon is best for arrival. You can of course stay in the camper Friday night.

-There will be a brewery tour and a cruise for those who want to attend at a local spot on Friday night. Come ready to have fun.

The gate to the inside track area will close at 6:30 or so, and there will be guard on duty overnight. You will have parking for your vehicle and access to your camper. Also there is a lot/field out of the track where you can dry camp if you choose to get there Thursday, but you will have to move the camper inside the track on Friday.

- I implore everyone to reserve before March 15 so you can get access to electric equipped sites. There will be a $10 electric hookup charge paid onsite. Anyone registering after Mar 15 cannot be guaranteed electric hookup, and may have to park their camper in a nearby area.

-This show will have a section indoors for vintage Packards and other high end show vehicles. Outdoors, and outside of the camper/bike area will be open display for customs, hot rods, vintage cars and more.

-Many vendors and food vendors will be located around the area as well.

-A track for “cone” racing will be nearby.

Lots going on!!

Looks like a nice group is planning to show up, even coming from Canada and California...should be fun times surrounded by more fun times for car and bike lovers too.
Arrive early if you can on Friday, so you can join in on the Brewery tour and get situated before the "flocks" arrive Saturday.

I am planning to set up Thursday.
