Does anyone know where they parking early GA RV?
High field
Green field
Or
Rv west

It looks like RV West, at least it does on the pinned map my buddy sent me earlier. He didn't respond to my "RV WEST" text though.

Damn, I hope not. I had my eye on that spot.

En route from Raleigh with a beautiful GA RV.

Any thoughts on coming at Oak Ridge Rd, as per directions, from the east on James through Shipman? Or just come up 29 to Lovington? Seems like that is heading into the belly of the traffic.

Slow trickle of cars. Don't over analyze signs after u-turn. All GA entry is one field not only car camping and day parking.

They've known what to expect the last couple years. This crowd skews younger, so they don't want to miss an opportunity to intimidate.

A few dozens rows of cars, each being relieved a few at a time, with no regard for what order people arrived in.

perhaps a penalty/disincentive to get to the field early, instead of the traffic line? After all, no music until later so no real advantage to being first

eta about 4 hours
Have a bottle, yes glass bottle, of champagne to open when we arrive. Figure it will make the waiting in line more enjoyable. Come find us in the gray Pruis from Georgia and we can share a glass.

I'd be waiting until the masses are in before I lined up. No need to get in early today with the music starting late. That being said it was quite frustrating to witness the level of disorganization that ensued during last year's entrance. Hope everyone gets in sooner than anticipated.

Pulled all the way to the right lanes and only waited about 5 minutes before the first move.

I am doing the same. Hope too many people arent following this model.

What is the car/rv inspection like? Big hassle or simple? Are employees running the inspection or cops?
