944-Spec#94 Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I think there is only one motel in Tooele. Many however on the west end of SLC. Look for ones near the airport. It is a 20-30 minute drive from the airport, but it is all away from town little if any normal rush hour traffic. That said I am camping at the track.

Sboxin Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 Thanks Joe! After some research decided on Holiday Inn Express in Tooele == full Second choice = Hampton Inn - Bingo Looked at SLC airport and decided we didn't want to drive that far twice a day Thought about camping in a garage - but would rather have a clean quiet bed at night. The reason I asked the question in the first place: when we went to WSIR last year Greg had a deal with a local Motel -- thought this might be the case here at Nationals. Oh, well -- doesn't hurt to ask, eh... AND, The NASA organizers have a lot of other work to do for this event - and we really do appreciate their hard work and time. See you at Miller ... == the Turner/UPS/Don Jackson Porsche team 911 Roy Turner - father and crew chief Brian Turner - son and hot shoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sn8byte Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 After some research decided on Holiday Inn Express in Tooele == full Second choice = Hampton Inn - Bingo Yeah, after I saw this thread I thought I'd better check-it-out and found the Holiday Inn Xpress was full so we booked @ Hampton for $129 a night (AAA rate). You can get it $20 cheaper per night at the non-refundable rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan F. Posted June 13, 2009 Members Share Posted June 13, 2009 We contacted every hotel in Tooele asking for a special rate in exchange for promotion to our drivers and none were interested in helping us out. I think all the hotels price themselves close to the $130/night. There are many deals available around the airport. Good Luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sboxin Posted June 13, 2009 Author Share Posted June 13, 2009 Ryan, thank you for the response and the effort to secure a price break on motel accommodations for the NASA National event. We'll see you there in Sept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbrew8991 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 anybody finding anything under 30min from the track better than $110/night if you advance purchase? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinlpl Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 http://oquirrhinn.com/default.htm Another thread here tipped me to this motel. Just spoke to them and booked it for $61/night two adults, two Queens beds. 10 minutes away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagoston Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I called them but all they have left are smoking rooms. Anyone know of other hotels with non smoking rooms still available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
