What time do the gates open today? Im at Lac Superior with the family so would love to drop the car / trailer off today and say hi.

My "home track" is a techincal track (Mid-Ohio), but from studying the Tremblant videos and track notes, it seems like this one is something special. Can barely wait!!

Is there a track walk or an option to walk it on your own at some point?

Cheers

You will love Tremblant.
I'm still not sure what time paddock gates open but usually 6 PM is a safe assumption. Earlier is possible but unless that is announced I'd assume 6.
Trailers can often be left inside the fence at the spectator entrance. This is on rt 327 heading north toward the village and is well marked. But again it's uncertain whether it is available to you today.
The variable seems to whether the track is being used today for another event.
If it is, often the spectator parking area is available. If not, sometimes the paddock opens early.
So, there you have it - a lot of typing to tell you 'who know's?'. 😀

Please do not show up at the gate with your trailer and request that you be signed in as Andrew's guest. He is there working with a client and would not be able to help. The people at track said that it would be fine to show up around 3 or 4 pm.

Rick (and anyone else wondering) - it seems that the gates open at 7am according to the RSR website.

Not sure if others have received any type of a packet post confirmation of registration but I have not, so this is the best info I have.

See you in the AM.

It was a pleasure to meet you, and a few other RListers today. Hoping for some good weather tomorrow - what an amazing track!

Thanks James
I enjoyed it as much as you did. Thanks for letting me intro you to the world's greatest sport.
And that is one cool car 👍
