Me and my JSB C6Z will be in the corral.

And regarding your schedule...I just saw there will be auctions to benefit the Austin Hatcher Foundation on Friday and Saturday at the corral and the team tent.

Default Friday

I literally just bought tickets to Friday since I can't go the rest of the weekend. I'm looking for a Friday corral pass if you know of one that is available! I'll be in my black C7 z51.
