Obviously without a doubt, another spot but since the locals seen fit to make Bridgehamption a golf course, there isn't a road course available. Nice try

ps. glad to see you have finally awoke from your winter hibernation

Last I looked, a 1/4 mile oval was not a road course.

They want $269/night during the Grand Prix Festival! Somehow, I just think that's a little pricey (about twice what other major hotel chains charge) for that part of the country. It's a good thing I already have my reservation at my usual B&B.

Best regards,

In its defense, they do use the Oval Eight layout for Taxi Cab demolition derby night.

(for once with Enrique) . That's pure but, then again, they may be including a bottle of this in each room.

LM,
You are right - that's pretty shocking... High prices for B&Bs in WG don't exceed $100/night, and many of those places are much nicer than any hotel... I think they are in for a rude awakening...

Best regards,
