Heath is about 10 minutes Northeast of the track. Last year the mayor put a flyer in each goodie bag at the Nats saying basically (to paraphrase here) "Come out to Heath the town is yours, do what ever you want, we don't care, just drop some money at some of our fine resturants, shops and hotels while you are here". The town had a huge party, they closed down the Best Buy parking lot and had a burnout zone, you could do burnouts anywhere in town, even on the streets, the cops were just there to waive their finger at you if you started to lose control or got way out of hand and for crowd control. They let it go until 11pm when they shut it down, but let the party at the hotels last all night. A couple of club memebers who are judges for the Nationals were telling me that the cops didn't write one ticket all weekend. In response to this all of the Dodge dealer who sponsered the event and the mayor's office got bags and bags worth of thank you letters, and from what I've heard it's all on again this year. It's already impossible to get a hotel room in Heath it's self.
