Default Sebring 2008 - Help

We are attending Sebring for the first time next March and were wondering if the Fangio or Gurney terrace is worth the effort? Are they reasonably comfortable, does one terrace have a better view then the other, is there access to the padock/facilities etc, and do they have a cover for shade. Thanks

Pay general admission ("Super Ticket") and you can go anywhere you want except Hot Pit and see anything you want; great track to walk around.

I agree, just buy a general admission ticket. You get to walk around and enjoy the entire racetrack. You get different perspectives from different viewing areas. Look for me at the start /finish line. Monoco Knight motorhome. Can't wait until March 12-15th.

I must agree with the two previous post. Try all the different viewing points (I like turn 7). Also don't forget the Corvette Coral.

I sat in one of the terraces last year and it was nice but I probably wouldn't spend the extra money again. It is nice and shady, though, which can be a very good thing if it's particularly hot, which it often is. Either way you have full access to everything like the competitor paddock and you'll want to spend a lot of time walking around the track anyway.
It is the only way to get a really good view of the front straight for the start, and you'll see a lot of pit action as well. So, maybe it is worth the extra money.
