Default Rolex 24 Hours Corvette Corral

I got my tickets for the corral!!! I am so jazzed! I am a new owner but longtime corvette and racing fan. This will be my first time at the corral.

Any advice from people who have gone before would be great!
Thanks!

One off Signature Wheels 19" all around. 345/30/19 on the back. Allegedly made by the owner of Signature Wheels and bought from him.
Thanks for the compliment!

Very cool. First time going to the Rolex or first time in the Corral? This will be my 7th year at this race. 4th year hanging out with the gang at the Grassroots Motorsports tent. Always a good time.

Have fun. Let's hope the weather is great and the new C8 kicks some butt!

I'm hoping that maybe this year Mid-Ohio will have an official Corvette Corral. The past two years they have offered a blocked-off, designated area for us, but you are just parking in the grass (or mud last year) in the infield.

Not a real sense of community with that setup.
