Interesting...  I checked Motel 6's website, and there it says there's a Motel 6 in W. Wendover as well as the one in Wendover.  I tried to find it in their pages but couldn't, so maybe it's just ad-speak.  And - the 6 in Wendover is already showing "Sold Out".

If you get a 6 room, you sign up again for next year... Dora sends an email, you confirm your rooms, mine are 115, 116 for the last dozen years or so... was on the list for those for maybe 6 years before I got them... stayed on second floor before that...see a trend here yet..., confirm your dates and she sends your reservation #s. 
They block out Speedweek every year, so yep sold out.  You can call or send them an email if you want to get on the list for this year... the returning guests get first shot, that process takes about 30 days... then they move to the wait list... until all rooms are sold.  Cancellations up to 24 hours before arrival without penalty... Mr and Mrs Kim (owners) and Dora are racer friendly folks.  They hate a rainout as much as we do.

Tried to book a room but no answer on their main #, and their website doesn't let me check availability or book a room, due to the shutdown I suppose.  I also called the Nugget and no answer.  Does anyone know of a hotel in Wendover that is still taking reservations?  Dangit, we were so busy at work during this crazy crisis I'm late on getting my rooms booked.  Thanks guys.

The hotels are surely going to lose their staffs.  And, I'd guess, who they get will not be up to speed by early August ? nor would the facilities.

World Finals look like the best bet.  Always 50-50, but the hotels don't rape you.

Does anybody know if the new owners have cleaned up the Nugget maybe even got the ice machines working?

I'm really hoping to be able to come to Wendover for Speed Week in 2008 from the UK, but am having some trouble getting accommodation. I appreciate that ...
