    I got my tickets. We should all go and route for team Subaru. Even though they are hardly competitive these days.

    Ok just tried to purchase tickets online and it appears it assigns seats. Anyone know how this works and if we'll be able to sit somewhere else?

    Organizing something sounds great. TV coverage of the event two weeks ago looked like a fun and different spectator experience from the one NASCAR event we have attended

    Sean and I plan to go too, site showed general admission, hadn't tried a purchase yet.

    also i haven't been able to find start time either, anywhere,

    it was encouraging to see the Isachsen Subaru Puma car get close to a podium at Bristol, even though it placed 4th, that's still higher than the privateer Subaru cars seem to place in the WRC http://www.global-rallycross.com/results/

    if I can get a head count of people wanting to get BBQ let me know and I'll get it reserved for us. Sells out pretty quick on the weekends

    Tickets.

    You can buy tickets at Andretti's in Roswell. They have blocks and can sell you the seats together.

    I even bought some early, then had more people decide to purchase and the let me swap in my old seats to sit together with the crew.

    Plus it was 10% off there.

    I am in grandstand 101. G1 seats 29 and 30.

    I would be interested in meeting up before/after. Maybe tailgate or cruise together to the parking area.

    I planned on being there around 3pm to tailgate!!!

    I got 2 tickets and will probably bring the girlfriend or another friend. I'd be down to meet up and have a subie convoy down to AMS.

    Not sure how you got assigned seats....when I got my tickets they were all general admission.

    Wanna meet at the Varsity and cruise down? It's probably the most central location to everyone, minus those that live on the southside like Breel

    Meetup before GRC event...

    Sounds like varsity works. We were thinking of getting to the track by 2pm to park and get in for 3pm. So maybe meet at varsity by 1pm???

    I got 2 in the ride, plenty of room if someone(s) wanted to take Marta to varsity and ride down.

    PM me if someone needs a ride or pickup from Alpharetta/Roswell.

    Praying for good weather!!!:sx:

    I have to work on Sat so I may just have to see you guys down there.

    Depending on how busy we are at work I may be able to meet up, but it may as late as 2pm before I can leave the Marietta area.

    GRC delayed a race earlier this year because of rain in Barcelona. This is racing but let's not kid ourselves, GRC can't hold a candle to WRC. Regardless I am excited and cant wait to convoy. Do we have a headcount on people tomorrow?

    Welp my car start. Looks like I won't be arriving in the Suby today.

    I've been telling people to meet at 1 at the Varsity but I am not sure who all will be there for sure.
