We had dinner with a couple last night that had also been there with a similar good experience (small world that we were discussing Daytona). Thanks for link, as I didn't drive there (I was a passenger) I had zero idea where it was.

Yes it was. And always even better with a great group of people!

If anyone needs hangar space to fly down I can offer that up at a nearby airport. PM me for details.

I too have booked the Rolex Lounge package along with some friends. This will be my first race since joining the forum. I'd like to meet forum members while there. What's the easiest way to identify y'all?

Wish we could be there this year... On the right coast but a lot further down below the US at a wedding of a close friend.

Time to get a Porsche jacket buddy. Then when you leave the Porsche hospitality, like superman, you can reveal your true identity. :lol

I went with the " Rolex 24 at Daytona Lounge package,, It's Friday, Sat & Sunday . I added fanzone / garage passes for Thursday for $20.

I'll be there too Brian. Last year I was up there with Terry Cord and it was great.

Just look for the good looking guys in the Ford GT gear. We won't be hard to find.

I know it's probably a long shot, but I found out about the Ford Hospitality Chalet late and by the time I went to get tickets they were sold out. My son and I are heading up Saturday and would like to meet some of you and enjoy the race with Ford hospitality. Does anyone have extra tickets I can buy or know any way we might be able to get in?
Thanks for any help.

I thought Ford didn't have anything official?

I just realized I was looking at the car corral page from last year, however when I called the ticket booth at Daytona they told me there was a hospitality chalet but it was sold out. Maybe I got misinformation from the box office.
