+1 on Gus's!! And Central BBQ isn't that bad to go to at night, just gotta stay on the main road and don't turn off in any neighborhoods.

Where are y'all thinking about staying?

Not sure, we have stayed out by Wolf Case for a race or two but that was years ago. We usually just go for the day and come back, I have inlaws in OB, but trying to keep it under the radar if you know what I mean

Thanks to everyone for all the suggestions, it has been a great help.
