if i am their first thing am i guaranteed a good spot or what? My plan is to start my eight hour drive at midnight wed putting me at the gates ideally by about 8:30 9 o'clock. Does my strategy sound OK?

From my understanding their are no sure things when it comes to what kind of spot you get - now if you get their early Thursday I think you'd have a better chance of not waiting for an extended period in line or backed up on the highway, but the only people who know what spot they are going to be in right now are VIP, RV's, and people that are going to go Tent Only.
the past two years i have arrived weds morn/afternoon and amazingly i was camped in the exact same spot both times in James Bond plus getting there weds afternoon is fun, cause they let u in early and u can party all weds night as well and get to know ur neighbors
Yeah, if you get in there Wednesday night or very early Thursday morning you'll be out in the middle of nowhere. That's what's happened to us the last couple of years. If you're willing to wait in traffic on Thursday morning you'll get a much better spot. For me, though, I'm okay with having a bit of a walk to Centeroo so that I can get settled in a night early and just have Thursday to bum around. Well, and not have to sit in traffic forever because inevitably somebody decides that the line doesn't apply to them and they drive by everyone and force themselves in line -- that just angers me so much and I don't want to enter Roo hating my fellow peeps.
Yea worked out really wierd for me last year...we drove from ny got there at 8 am but ending up waiting outside of manchester for my friend until about 11am. i dont think i could of been closer it was UNBELIEVABLE being less than a cigs walk from centeroo

in another thread wasn't it mentioned that they sometimes let people in on wednesday night but they get stuck in BFE? i was wondering if that is true could you go wednesday night if you were going to be tent only

you can go into the campgrounds on Wed night, but you will end up in BFE like you said. You cannot go into tent only until Thursday morning when it opens.
