I firmly support the idea of a separate paddock section. For me the tow will
be 10 hours or so and if I need to leave on Wednesday it reduces the chance
that I can make the trip. Being able to pull & arrive on Thursday helps a ton.

I agree 100% with Jeff. We would need a space of our own . I started driving
Road Atlanta in 1975 and it has gone from one of my favourite tracks to one of
my least favourite tracks in a very short time.

OK, Joe, put me and my TR3A down as a possible.
One gripe I've had with the Mitty is that I used to have to arrive on
Wednesday afternoon to get in line to enter the paddock on Thursday morning
(or some ridiculous early arrival scheme!) in order to get a paddock space
that wasn't out in the boonies somewhere. Maybe we could have a separate
Triumph paddock roped off so we could just arrive the afternoon before and
be ensured of a decent paddock spot.
That's my suggestion AND the reason I have avoided the Mitty for the last 4
or so years. I love the event and the track, but not the hassle.

In 24 hours the FoT has yielded a blue ribbon panel of Triumphs, mostly
TR4s.
