I'm thinking about going. Already have the days off from work.

Last year I rented a car and slept in it. I sorta wanna bring the RX-7 this year, but I'm not sure how well I'll sleep in it.

And yeah, bring your rain gear. Rained last year. No fun if you're wet.

If anyone else needs them let me know asap. pm me for exchange details. Phone is 386-566-7717. Its highly unlikely after Sat. I can get anymore. G

UPDATE! To all of those who paypaled in advance your ticket packages are in! I still have access to them as my company has not sold them all yet. PM me and I can see if I can help you out. Face value of the package is $100 at the gate. Pretty damn good deal @50% off. Just trying to help out fellow rotorheads. G

I can't wait for this. I am going to swing by G's tomorrow to pick up tickets and check out his car. G- Thanks again for this great deal!

One of my friends and I will be hanging out most (possibly all) of the night. Decide to camp or not when we get there... Who needs sleep?

Why not get a cheapo hotel, there are tons on the beach to support bikeweek/biketoberfest that are on the cheapo scale... all the hotels nearer to the speedway costed more to my recollection(baring the highend ones).
