Bristol, TN Area Airports?

My Dad and I are flying to Bristol for the NASCAR race in late August, is KTRI pretty well the best option? We're flying up Friday and staying til Sunday, so we could tie down at an outlying airport if that's a better option. Thanks for any help y'all might have.

I'm at Elizabethton, TN, 0A9. Actually closer to Bristol than KTRI. Hanger or tie-down available as well as car rentals. 4-lane access to the track from the airport. Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks for the offer. We ended up getting a hotel in Greenville and are planning to fly into GCY instead of TRI, hotel rooms were stupid expensive that close to the track, the drive will give us something different to see I guess. If something changes I'll get in touch with you.
