What hotels are close to Pacific Raceway?

Thanks.

There is nothing right down the street but the track is in Kent if that makes searches any easier...

Do you have some specific hotel/motel needs, I can ask some of my pals that live closer.

Thanks Holeshot! Need a room for this Wed/Thur nights as close to the track as possible in a "safe" area as the bike will be on an open trailer.

One of the local track-ho's sent me this...

Quote:

motel six just down the road from the track, (there's only one). they take internet reservations and offer a discount, makes it even cheaper....they'll take the extra care to situate you on the first floor outside so you can park your bikes/trailer whatever just outside your window--just ask. Seemed pretty decent to me there (safe), guy said track peeps stay there all the time.

Think this is the one? I know nothing about the Seattle/Kent area.

Motel 6 Seattle South

20651 Military Road
I-5 at Military Road Exit #151
Seattle, Washington, United States, 98188

Thanks for all your help Holeshot!

FD, I'll be around if you want to get some grub sometime when you are here. I'm oncall this week so I won't be at the track

Hmmm.. does not sound right. PR is off of Hwy 18 really.. that sounds like the one close to Ft. Lewis south of Tacoma.. let me find some mapquests for ya...

Took a few clicks to find the location/directions for the track:

Track Directions

Weird.. I checked the Motel 6 website and I don't see anything like the track-junky described location wise... weird..

EDIT: I added map image that has the track and that motel's address marked out. Does not look at all right to me. Let me ask them if that's right or not...

I checked the M6 website and it looks like that is the closest...MapPoint says 18.1m. The PR website lists a handful of motels closer...was hoping to get some better info re; parking and security. Thanks again Holeshot.

Booth, I'll be there Wed. night, ride Thursday, and leave sometime Friday...It'd be cool to hookup...maybe drag Holeshot into is as well if schedules allow and he's interested.

We should hit up Veloce in Kirkland

Holeshot lives across the pond, so if you want to see him you'll have to swim

How's Thursday night look? Veloce sounds good! May be able to tell Bwhip and Chain a thing or two about Ducs afterward...

I booked a room in Auburn how far from Kirkland is that?

I'll be on a boat in California by the time you get here..

I hope you found the housing info you needed. I asked around but it finally boiled down to a bunch of yahoos just sending me the link to the hotels on the track website... sorry..

It would be cool to be hanging with you guys but I'll be here:
Lost Isle (tried to link the banner but no luck..
