If you want to park your rig the night before the RIOT you’ll need to pay to enter for the test and tune as a spectator at least. Over night parking for the event is available by paying for the Riot event at the gate. Make sure you have a sticker on your windshield issued by OSW Friday night for the Riot or I’ll be knocking at your RV DOOR early. Parking in the field outside the gate is free. Please remember Car Show cars are on the grass Racecars on the concrete.
