All the good places are booked up a year in advance. Try something a little bit off the beaten path.

Looks like Saturday sold out. Anyone have a pass they are not using? Cant believe I missed it this year.

Thanks

Those that have ordered, I would think we should be receiving our tickets soon.

I spoke with Tami Johnson, the ticket office manager, on Monday. She said they're mailing out tickets and related items over the next two weeks.

Anyone have an extra corral ticket for Saturday? I missed out on the opportunity to purchase mine for this year.

This will be our first time attending.

Coming Saturday.

How early do we need to arrive with traffic and parking and all?

Thanks in advance for the advice and recommendations...

F4 Phantom

7 am.

It depends where you are coming from. Traffic has never really been that big of an issue to me but I'm used to it. Also if you don't want to miss anything just go early. Check out the schedule and see what time the practices are and anything. Last year I arrived maybe 2 hours before the Imsa race but wish I was there the whole day.

German beer with Mexican food??!! Now that's just wrong - you need a Pacifico man!

Seriously, thanks for posting all the info.. I haven't received my tickets/pass yet...?? Has anyone else?

I'll be driving up from San Diego on Saturday.. Still pondering the C1 or the C5.

C1

Hey guys, guess I was late as well for corral tickets as well. Willing to buy one if anyone is selling one or one gets free'd up. Thanks.

Maybe San Diego County gets first priority!

My tickets just arrived, too. We have the best seats in house: top row, Grandstand 29, aisle seats, just west of the Toyota Bridge, across from the pits, at the start-finish line, where they're hitting about 180. We have Marina Parking right at the Blue Marina entrance to the track, very close to our parking. We are straight across the road from the Corvette Corral. We'll have my 2014 crystal red C7 vert (at least on Friday), maybe my wife's burgundy Acura RDX on Saturday (we need room for more chairs for guests), with a USC easy up. Look for us. I'll come visit with you guys several times. We can hand cups of beer over the fence to inside the track just behind the concessions. I'm stoked!!! I've been to all 42 years of this event, all three days of all but a couple of years (rain).
