Spent yesterday on Lightning. These are the directions I followed:
Take the Walt Whitman Bridge to Route 76 (Atlantic City) or the Ben Franklin Bridge to Route 676 to Route 76 (Atlantic City) to Route 42 South. Follow Rt 42 South 2 miles and bear right onto RT 55 South (Exit 13). Take Exit 24 Millville, Rt 49 (first ramp) Follow Rt 49 (East Main Street) for approx 1.5 miles. Cross Rt 47, North 2nd Street, then go through two lights, over the bridge through the blinker light and turn left at the next light onto Brandriff Av. Brandriff becomes Race St., then Silver Run Rd Rt 555.. Follow two miles and turn right onto Dividing Creek Rd. (Still Rt 555) Main gate is 1.5 miles on the right. Motorsports Blvd.
From Philadelphia I think this is the best route--not too many lights and pretty quick. It takes you right by the Riggins gas station (closest and best I've found so far that has 93 octane) and a Wawa. I would do it with a 24' trailer or so if not a toterhome. In my car it was of course not an issue. Much better than Exit 27 off of Rt 55.
