The reason that I asked is that if you could come in to the area from the south of the race track, from Dinwiddie, traffic seems to be somewhat better than from the north, from Petersburg/Richmond. Route 703 cuts across from 95 to 85 into Dinwiddie, then north on 1 to the track. 460 to Petersburg seems to be a more direct route if traffic is not too bad. You might want to get a good Va. map and see what you think.

Thanks for the heads up. We're "those people" that keep an up-to-date atlas in the car. Plus, we'll be coming south from Richmond this time.

Oops. I forgot to mention that you could take I664 off of I64 east. It'll take you thru the Monitor Merrimac tunnel and puts you out at Suffolk/ Western Branch(apologies to you nephew, I know the kids from GB don't like WB). Just watch for construction at Battlefield Blvd exit.

Thanks Kelly, I was thinking about 664, but was leaning against it because of the traffic in Hampton. It turns out I will be meeting my brother in Suffolk, so 460 it is. Hopefully any detours will be cleared by the time we get there (hopefully around 10 - I'm coming from the Eastern Shore, and I'm sure it will be after 8 before we leave.)
