PLEASE NOTE: This thread is NOT for the 2007 National event. This is the information for the last 3 years in Salem, OH. The 2007 national will be held at National Trail Raceway in Hebron, OH on August 3-5, 2007.
The following are the hotel listings. The BPG had rooms blocked off and these are the rates that were given to us. BPG does not have any financial liability for the blocked rooms. All rooms will be billed individually to the guest at booking. The block contracts requested by the motels do not require financial guarantees.
Soon to follow will be the on-line application form and all information will also be in the Build Sheet. We hope to see you all there. Any question or problems please post here or PM any one of the Board members.
ALL ROOMS ARE BOOKED UNDER BPG OR BUICK PERFORMANCE GROUP. Mention the Buick Performance Group to obtain these rates.
Also Take Note: All rates do not include taxes. Taxes are 13%.

All motels are within walking distance of each other. This group of motels is centered around such restaurants as TGIF, Outback, Chili's, Springfield Grille, Chi Chi's, Longhorn, Lone Star, Pizza Hut, Red Lobster, and the other standard restaurant chains. The shopping center is two blocks away. The A&W restaurant (Friday night cruise night) is 1 miles away. Chili's has the Saturday night cruise.
The track is 15 miles away. It will take 20 minutes using the back roads. We will have to have generate a map of the area and make up several direction signs at key intersections. No one should get lost.
Other motels (2 miles from our cluster) in the area (Rt 7 and turnpike) that I did not approach for blocked rooms.
Holiday Inn Express
Ramada Limited
Another group of motels at the Niles Exit #223 off I80 (7 miles from our cluster and 15 miles from track) include:
Comfort Inn
Youngstown Inn
Econo Lodge
Best Western
Hampton Inn
Motel 6
Sleep Inn
Fairfield Inn
This group of motels is more suited to the traveler/trucker. All fast food restaurants. We expect this group to have slightly lower rates.
