If anyone purchased Corvette Corral tickets for Saturday and can't make it, let me know. I'd be interested in purchasing them.

They sold out at 90 cars already.

Thanks!

Any chance for Corvette Corral parking for Friday?

Is everything sold out?

Just east of the Blue Entrance, which is just south of Shoreline Drive, around Grandstands 25 and 26, just past the hairpin.

I'm going to do the same. I'll be in Marina Parking, right by the Blue Entrance, across the road. We'll be the maroon Acura RDX (my wife's car) with the USC popup. I may bring my crystal red c7 vert with Kalahari interior (license plate ATHANOR) one day. I just want to get myself in to talk to people, particularly with the guy with the C7 with the Calloway supercharger.

I went today. Parking direction to the Shoreline site was crazy confused. Whoever you asked had a different story. Finally we parked and strolled into the hot pits. The Vette teams are killing them in practice. We will see tomorrow

Reeves is at CarsNcoffee in Aliso Viejo most Saturdays with one of another blown C7, and is very easy to speak with.

The 3 and 4 C7Rs were kicking ***. The Ford GTs were slow and sounded crappier every lap. $400,000 what? Good turnout early at the Corral!

I heard a rumor that this is the last year for the Gran Prix to be held in long Beach.

Can anyone confirm or call it a bust?

This is the second biggest event on the Indycar circuit and a huge money maker for the City of Long Beach. Neither of these two are going to let this race go away. This will be my 27th year attending and the race is a strong as ever.
