    This event is a little over a month away, October 3-6. I will definitely be there on Friday. Any word of a car corral or discounted tickets? :naughty:

    -- Following added by miloman --

    Unfortunately, WRXatlanta will be unable to provide a corral or discounted tickets at Petit Le Mans this year. We appreciate your interest and enthusiasm. We will try to get this going next year.

    Last year there was a ticket/parking pass deal. I believe talks are currently in the works. Keep your eyes open.

    You know I'll be there, but I don't know if you'll see me. Right now, I'm set up to work with the Corvette Team, but I don't know if I'm going to

    I've got tickets and infield parking already. Any word on a corral? Last year I saw it, thought that was great, but guys said I couldn't park in there since all the spots were taken.

    Sorry about that. We planned for 20 cars and that was all we were allowed to hold. Turned out that we underestimated it just a bit. I didn't know if there was a penalty for adding more cars. We're working on getting one set up this year too and hopefully it will be bigger.

    Probably not camping at turn 7 on Friday.

    If that doesn't narrow it down, just yell "MARCO!" and I'll yell back "POLO!" until we find each other. 50% of the time that should work every time.

    I've gone the last 6 or 7 years. It's a great event if you love motorsports and cars in general. Bring your cameras you will see alot of bad a$$ cars everywhere that you don't see day to day. I will definately be there one of the 3 days. Depends on work but what ever day i'm not working I will be there.

    I'll definitively be there all day Friday but I don't know if I want to stay there all day Saturday and go to work that night at 11pm or that day off as well to stay at RA all day.

    I've never been, so I'm pretty clueless about parking, etc. What is recommended to bring (chairs, beer, food, etc) ?

    I'd love to meet up with someone that's been there before that I could hang out with
