<h5><strong><span style="color:#000000">Local Accommodations:</span></strong><br /><span style="color:#000000">If you are wanting to book a hotel for your visit, anything on Martin Luther King Blvd. would be a 10-15 minute drive to the race site & all of them are well kept to my knowledge. They are also scattered among many restaurant & shopping option. The Courtyard by Marriott & the Howard Johnson are not along MLK, but are a 5-10 minute drive to the race site. </span></h5>
