Thinking about going tomorrow too. Some friends are headed there in the afternoon but the morning schedule is of more interest to me. Lamborghini's at 8:55am, GT3s at 10 then TUDOR practice for an hour at 11:10.

Camping? What's the P-Car parking like there for real low guys like me?

Was there today for qualifying. Great day but a couple of big crashes in turn 1 and 10 by Daytona prototypes. The new guys learned about the 'monkey with a knife.' Honda and Corvette qualified P1 in class. Funny thing was Milner never really could get the pole lap as his team mate Garcia? nailed it.

Sloan Urry won the first GT3 Cup race by about 7 or 8 seconds.

Pcar parking is good for about 40 cars so get there early- the Platz views turn 1.

Going up with a bunch of my buddies. Planning to be there around 10AM. We're taking up a limo bus so we can enjoy the trip down as well. Hopefully weather forecast is wrong and we gat a nice race day. Otherwise will be spending time is 6speed lounge and watching the race from the patio while watching soccer final.
To all who are going, have a great day. Organizers anticipate 50,000+ people to turn out.

I went up today (can't make it tomorrow) and had a "hot pit" pass which was incredible! Could stand right at the pit wall during race/practice pit stops!

Amazing setup...never seen anything like it at Mosport.

I wish I could go back tomorrow.

There's VIP parking in the Porsche paddock.
