I remember better now. You were there too. There is a Starbucks next door too. That hotel had some snacks and stuff out in the evening too.

OP, I just realized, you never said which track you are running at? There are 2. Which one are you at, TB or Lightning?

Plus 1 for the Hampton Inn

Thunderbolt is a great track. Lot's of safe run off for most of the track. Watch out for the octopuss the first time around the track. Many an unsuspecting driver has been grabbed by this beast.

Agreed.
Just did 2 days at TB this past weekend.
Love the Octopus. Also love the 3-4-5 combo.
So many lines, so little time.....(or are there?...)

Yes. The octopus has a thousand lines, and all of them feel wrong!

Ha. So true!!
I like to apex right on the mark going in (right hander) and tracking out about 2/3 of the way (looking right at the villas on the left) and then back to mid track for the balance of the octopus before bringing it in tight and aiming right at the turn in cone dead in front of me, but only getting 1/2 way to that cone and then bringing it in tight to the right and back out to mid track for the left hander. I am usually a bit early on that left curve, but it feels right for some reason.
Yes, it does indeed feel wrong no matter which line I take. So true.
What was this thread about again? Tires?

Prefer Fairfield Inn, relatively new, close to all of what Millville offers and the staff are always nice.

Suite: price ~$100
Dinner at the clubhouse: ~$25
Being able to go lie down with the AC cranked between sessions when it's 95 out: Priceless!

Last year I stayed at an amazing Airbnb place not far from the track but not sure if the host is still hosting.

If it's a really hot day, charge for AC by the minute. You'll cover you DE costs, and then some....
Nice score on the room.
