08.21.11, Mike Banks, Man, your website is tooooooooooo !!! much. I
love it and tell my buds about it. I have been to dega a few times
but never camping. I have camped at Atlanta Raceway. At AIR you can
run your generator all nite in the unreserved camping. My question
is, can you do the same in the free camping at Dega? Will you guys
be going to the 2011 fall race at Dega? Again thanks for the stories
and pics on your awesome site.
(thanks for
the nice words about the site as well as your awesome name. you can
run your generator 24 hours a day at the dega north park campground.
sadly, we have never done the fall dega race, although we are open
to sponsorship. for additional dega camping information, check
here. if you are going
to dega this fall, have fun and have one for us)
08.22.11,
Mike Banks, Yes, we are going to the fall race. We will get there
around lunch on Thursday. Is that to late to get a good spot at the
north camp grounds? Any pointers for us? ( #1 don't forget tickets)
Thanks so much for clearing up my issue. They told me on the phone
that there was quiet time at the North camp site.
(thursday will be fine, you should find a good spot. there is a more
quiet area of north camp to the eastern side, near the dirt track.
we find the partiest area is within the confines of the large flags
up on the hill, all the way down to the camp's main east/west
roadway. try to be up on the hill, as if it rains, you're liable to
be
screwed in the mud.)
10.27.11, Mike Banks, I finally saw the Seven Flags @ DEGA up close.
We camped on the second road over from the blue flag. It was a party
!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(feel free to rub our noses in your incredible partying without us,
jerk!)
01.24.12, Mike Banks, I will be attending my first
DEGA spring race this year. I usually go to the fall party. I tell
everyone about you guys and the website (which usually gets their
attention) . I look forwarding to meeting the DEGABUS crew and
partying.
(we always look forward to having a few beers
with new friends. do stop by. see you then. great name, by the way)
03.23.11, jason olinger, hey, nice pics. me and about 15 of my wild
buddies go to dega every year. we get there on tuesday and leave on
monday, one hell of a good time. we just had our annual "plan
evrything out party" and along with our vidieos and pics we like to
check out your last years pics just to get pumped up for the
upcoming festivities. we stay in west c and if yall havent ever been
there it gets nutts! this year i might wonder over and haller at
yall. but just know we hold it down in the JUNGLE too. and agian
thanks for the good pics. have a blast this year man. p.s. do you
know of any other sights that have good dega party pics?
(thanks for the shout. we too are getting ready for the long short
weekend. i would love to see some of your pix if you have some
online somewhere. i saw some posted on a myspace page a few years
ago and i'm sure there are thousands posted on many facebook pages,
but none that i have ever gone and looked for. thanks again for the
good words and i hope you have a great time this year as well. no
rain!)
01.24.11, Chris, I am a Dega rookie, going for
first time in April. Planning on staying outside of track, but can
we get inside to party??
(unless you have a ticket, driving into the campground may or may
not be possible, as they have people checking at the camp ground
gates. walking into it is always possible. check out the
rookie page.)
01.18.11, Rich Pace, Hey Mike, Great
site. We are coming to the Spring race for the first time and are
wondering where you guys camp. We go to the Charlotte race every
year and thought we would try something bigger and better. Will be
about 15 - 20 of us in a camper and tents. Cheers.
(thanks for the kind words.
check this out and stop by.)
04.13.10, clay, Hey, My friends and I are coming to Talladega in two
weeks for the first time! In trying to find out what to expect, we
looked at your photos. Holy shit! Looks like it's gonna be an
awesome weekend! We're looking forward to it!
04.05.10, josh, Me and couple of buddys r come to dega for the first time. We r
camping at wazoo camp ground. Just want to see if u guys will b there this year?
Will we be able to walk around diferent places and different parties. If so
where the best place to party at? We just looking to have a good time. Let us
know what goes on there. Thanks. (drop by, say hi. if we
don't see you, have a kick ass time. as for where to party, it's been our
experience that most all the campground parties, but the section to the east,
near the dirt track, parties the least. i think families pile in there and it's
lights out fairly early for them. good luck.)
03.29.10, Joey Farrell, whats up, Im a fan of yalls website, and I know yall
probably hate questions concerning camping info, but i've purchased tickets to
the spring race this year and was wondering what time the campsites usually full
up?. I plan on arriving late afternoon on thursday and was wanting to know if
there are still open sites in the free campgrounds around that time?
(from my past experience, you should still be able to find
decent camping on thursday. obviously, the earlier the better. do stop by and
say hello.)
03.29.10, James Larson, Me and my brothers and dad
will be going to dega this april(2010). My little brother Jason was there last
year, but did not camp, that's what we will be doing this year. This is my 1st
NASCAR race, I know I am a rookie, but I am active duty military, and for the
past 20+ years have not had that much time for myself. I was check'n out dega
bus.com and holy shit, it looks like fun, can't wait. Anyways, I am driving from
great lakes Illinois, to Arkansas to pick the bro's and dad up, and then driving
to dega. Question is about the free camping, does it fill up fast, we are not
getting there till late Friday, or early Saturday. I have looked everywhere to
find out about camping there at the speedway, and nothing. I hope you can help
me out. You can look me up on face book. Thanks, and will look for ya at DEGA.
(hello james, first of all, thank you for your service. i
personally appreciate you putting yourself to service in order to provide me the
opportunity to be free to go to dega. this will be my 6th year and it has never
disappointed me, even the few times we were rained on. by the end of the
weekend, it's somewhat a relief from all the laughing we do, the food we eat,
the drinking, and watching drunk women exposing themselves. the races aren't too
bad either. i'm sorry to say, but free camping is next to impossible to secure
by friday night. from what i've seen, what little space that may be available,
is not very comfortable. i highly recommend you try to up the schedule of your
group and get there thursday day. bribe, threaten, and/or cajole your posse to
mount up and ride out early. you can always check
talladegasuperspeedway.com for any camp site info available.
do not disappoint me the opportunity to share a drink and
shake your hand. you know what the bus looks like. if you go and we do not meet,
have a great time.)
05.16.09, anon, We were at Talladega this year
in the campgrounds and we had find and stop by and see you guys. We love your
website and your enthusiasm! You guys are great! I’ve been checking your website
everyday to see if you have the new pictures up (thinking I’m probably in some
of them….we were somewhat wild this year—wet tshirt contest?) Anyway, just
wanted to let you know that we love ya and can’t wait to see you in the fall!
(we don't do the fall race. not yet, anyways. if you don't
find your pictures here, there is no reason you can't
send them in.)
04.08.09,
Scott from Dayton, oh-love the pics. We camp down the way from you guys but was
to lazy to walk up the hill to say hey. We're gearing up for our 9th year in 2
weeks. This is our only guy trip all year and I start looking forward to it as
soon as we leave the track. I look at your site through out the year to remember
good times. I am actually in the back round of one of the pics of
12 pack under wear guy. Have a good trip and we'll say hey this year.
04.05.09, Deaer sirs,
We have a delima to take care of. My client (and
redneck friend) have filed suit against your parties for unlawfull useage of our
image and likeness in your 2006 pictures. Wereas we object to the use of our
image on this site we seek to obtain rightfull monetary damages from your
parties during the spring race of 2009. Wereas we will show that both myself and
my client have suffered irreputable damage from the posting of our likeness we
are seeking damges near 1 million dollars. As we have maintained a reputable
image for the past 9 years of spring race we feel that we are due substaintial
reimbursement of our losses. We are prepared to follow through to include a
summary judgement against your parties for above mentioned damages. Please make
sure that you broing legal council with you this spring race as we will have a
trial to determine the amount of damages we ar due.
As loyal dega fans we
are willing to comprimize this law suit against your parties for consideration
of two (2) cold beers. We will only accept this offer if you agree to sample our
creek liquor. If you borrowed the mower from scott at the top of the hill just
ask him. He can validate the authenticity of this juice. We will be there when
the gates open on tuesday and will be on the lookout for your bus.
We will
be at the bottom of the hill backed up to 20 just across from were waldo and
robbie camp.
Remember the only way to avoid this legal action is to have two
(2) cold beers when approached andbe prepared to sample the juice. Where the
hell is Earl? He was just here.. See you guys soon!
hello sirs,
we counter sue and
demand payment in full of whatever damn alcohol you have at the time of your
appearance. be prepared to indulge.
08.06.08, Ginnie, Durham, NC., Hi there, I just love your pictures on the web.
Yall look like yall have a blast!
I would like to ask you for some information please. My friends and I (6 women -
3 married 3 not) camped at Daytona last year and loved it. Everyone camping
there told us that the camping in Talladega was the best. We would like to go to
the spring 2009 race and camp but we know absolutely nothing about it. I was
wondering if you could give me some info on what campground to use or who to
call for a reservation. We would really like to camp as close to the track as
possible. After viewing yall’s pictures we want to camp next door to yall!!!
Would you send me some info please? Thank you so much.
(hello ginnie, thanks for the good words about the site. it's really just a
photo documentary of the fun we do have. camping at dega is fun. it's like a
city springs up with a common goal, that is, party your ass off and see a few
races. i hear there will be three races spring 2009.
there are several camp areas and they are free or pay, depending on where you
want to be. we camp free and as such, we are about as far from the track as you
can be and still be on track property. we don't mind, as the walk is always a
good time too. look for us if you do make the race.)
05.07.08, Kari, Hey guys! I finally remembered to look at this website. Im the
chic that was driving the red pick up truck with the 36' toy hauler trailer next
to you guys down I-65 near or south of indy i think it was on the way to Dega a
couple weeks ago.. My best friend guy in the passenger seat lifted his calf to
the window to show his #3 tattoo. The guys in the back of the bus liked it...
KICK ASS site, i have nascar camping pics just as good as that from alot of the
tracks. I should do a website like urs. Love the bus too! ROCK ON!
(i wanted to get a picture of his tattoo from the moving
vehicles. we spoke of your friend's tattoo while at dega. the guys were also
impressed that the "cute chick" was driving the truck/hauler. get your site up!
thanks for the good words)
05.08.08, Kari, Yeah, towing that thing is a bitch! I wanted to look over more
also, but couldnt in fear of swerving off the road! i have sway bars on that
thing but they dont help much. That was my 1st trip with it, just got rid of "ol
bessy" - my 83 motorhome covered to death with racing stickers & all hilljacked
out, i miss that camper, she was so easy to drive unlike this beast. Where ya
guys from? We are from Merrillville, IN - right next door to Scary Gary. If i
have some time i will e u some good dega pics from 06 - 08. We stay on the Blvd
in the infield, i thought for sure u guys would be in the infield also, looked
for the bus, but now i see you stay at the north campground. Welp, back to work!
(while the quantity of this year's pix is light, i still
had enough for a modest showing. there are others in transit that are yet to be
added. i live in florida, but venture to dega the last four years. this year i
flew up to indiana where my brother lives and drove down on the bus. don't know
if you ever rode 9 hours in a school bus, but i'm sure it's less comfy than your
truck/hauler rig. we do stay in the north camp. i suppose mostly because it's
free and we can only assume it's more rambunctious. we like rambunctious. we are
of the opinion that the infield is even more contained and controlled, but we
may be mistaken. i go where i am led and north camp it is. do send a few pix and
maybe next year we will see your friend's '3' tat again.)
05.11.07, big tom pearson, I'VE BEEN RIGHT THERE WITH YOU FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF
YEARS . I THINK THIS IS GREAT. I'LL BE THERE THIS FALL AND NEXT SPRING. I'LL
HOLLER AT YA. HOW ABOUT THE POOR GIRL WHO GOT HIT IN THE HEAD WHILE ON THE POLE?

05.04.07, James Smith, Hey You, This is James Smith in Brandon, Mississippi.
Hope Laura didn't get too offended by Steve, my drunk buddy. I do have some
pictures, and I hope to send some. Steve and I were some of the "other fuckers"
who showed up and visited to say we've seen you on the net. Hope to see y'all in
October.
P.S. I will talk to Steve about being silly. (looking
forward to your pictures. i'm sure steve was fine, hell, everyone was drunk. i
hope you didn't see me refer to any camp visitors as "other fuckers" on the web
site. if so, let me know. i appreciated everyone that stopped by to say hi. we
won't be there in october, but i hope it's just as good for you.)
05.03.07, Nicole Arnold, Hey guys!! You got to get more pics up!! Tell Dan I
have nice pic of me and him.
(you tell him by
sending in that pic.)
