ROLEX 24 2013

Everyone have there tickets, and plans for attending?

got mine ... I'll be there Wed evening

We'll be there. I hear that we'll again have trams to take us from our compound to the pre-race fan walks.

we are flying in weds and plan on being at the track fri sat and sunday..and homeward bound monday am.

I went a few years back, and had a blast. The GRM folks are great, and the infield compound has an amazing array of drive-in clubs.

tickets came today. woohoo.. 48 days..lol

Got my Grand-Am 2013 media hard card and D.I.S. credentials on the way! Need to track down the GRM contingent for more people photos this time.

it's been brought up before that maybe we need name tags with our user names on them ...

I hear that they are now making you buy an additional parking pass as well as your ticket this year. Shenanigans, I'm sure that was a directive from the ALMS side of things. I enjoyed only paying around $80 for a week pass that included parking.

I think the reality is that the infield parking fills up quickly.

David, do you think that the gate guards can be taught that the Lake Lloyd parking stickers mean we actually have a parking space .... the last couple of yrs it's been darn hard to convince them that it didn't matter that the parking was full up .... we had reserved parking ... they didn't seem to understand that

we'll be there . Cant wait, I finally have a decent quality camera. Going to try and tell a story with my shots

That seems to happen a bit every year

Let me see what the official word is on that.

thanks ... I've managed to get in each time ( coming back from the grandstands to the infield), but it's been a close thing some of the time ...

probably be better if I bought a cheep bicycle and carrier and used it back and forth ... but if I don't get around to that any help you can give would be great

GRM needs to get with Sput ! he takes great fotos . Gate entry is a breeze ,, Dress shirt , GRM sticker on front plate / hats and tee shirts work majic. Waters stickers swag ect .........

so we booked airfare.. gonna give jet blue out of boston a shot see what happens.. cheaper than southwest out of manchester NH... buddy works for enterprise rent a car so he got us a deal.. and taking the magic express to stay at the animal kingdom lodge.. ya i know its about an 1 1/2 drive but i promised my son he could pick one park to goto.. he chose EPCOT. so will do that and he hangs out at the races fri sat and sunday.

I'm missing it this year, I think. I have tickets, but no way to get there.

In reply to kabel:

• the Porsche corral attendees have experienced this same issue & the PCA organizers have made a point to discuss this with the track to solve or at least minimize the issue.

BARNCA, the drive is not bad really straigt up I4. I drive back and forth from Orlando each day of the Rolex event week.

it was funny when i told my son we are bringin a lil bit of everything for clothes.. he looked at me and said, daddy its florida its always warm..

If anyone has an extra GRM Experience ticket they need to sell, I would like to buy it.

In reply to racerfink: We have 2 GRM Experience tickets. Have made it a father son tradition for several years, but my son had ankle surgery and won't be able to go this year. I'd sell both tickets for what I paid which is $252. Email me at heaths@charter.net if you're interested.

Wen't down to Allegra racing and did there windshield THURSDAY with tearoffs
