The Garden State Parkway sucks during the summer all beach traffic and the tolls, North and South especially going south starting at Sayreville, NJ through Toms River

BTW -- this is also true for the New Jersey Turnpike which some people would take from the North to the GSP and pick up the GSP about exit 129 on the GSP (IIRC that exit( Friday Night, which would not affect the show and Saturday Mornings are bad times to be heading South (or North) on the GSP but if you go during the way during the week or head South on Sunday you will be fine. Now going North on Sunday evening on the GSP is a real pain as well. So just think about slightly different times to drive OR look into the casino buses if you don't like traffic.

If you have a little time and aren't carrying a lot of stuff, I'd recommend Amtrak train to 30th St. Station Philly and then a local Philly train to AC. Did once and was very easy. Seemed like there were trains to AC once an hour at least. Very relaxing, and the Amtrak station is I believe across the street from the Shereton and convention center. And you don't need to incur costs for parking.
God, I hate summer traffic. Jersey Garden State Parkway can be a complete horror show in the summer. |

Is there any need to buy tickets ahead of time (aside from saving a few bucks)? Has anyone ever been turned away when paying at the door?

No but depending on the day, there can be a decent wait to get in when the show opens. If you don't want to bypass that line, then you can certainly buy your tickets on the show day..

Thanks. While checking the Lewes to Cape May route, I found the ferry information and reservation system. The ferry ride is 80 minutes and then AC is another hour up the road from the Cape.

I have yet to make any reservations for the National as I just worked it out so I can attend. I know reservations anywhere in AC will be tough, ideas on where else would be feasible? I am coming up from NC early in the week. Also, what would be the best avenue to get VIP tickets? Thanks for the suggestions.

I would imagine the NSCC web site still has MVP tickets available. Once ordered, you can pick up at the door in case you are worried about receiving them in the mail in advance.
And I know many people are staying in Absecon. I heartily recommend doing that and driving in each day if you can't find a place in AC Rich
