I hadn't bought yet, but that + pit pass sounds good.

Seeing as I live within walking distance of the track, I'll definitely be there. I still need to buy tickets, but I'm holding out for walk-ups so I don't have to pay processing fees.

The ticket system sor to f sucks. I wanted to buy a Fri and Sat day pass and a Sat paddock pass. I had to buy each one separately and have an additional $6.50 processing fee added to each one.

But I got 'em

Parking is available for a fee at the hotel, but given that the hotel is inside the track it'll be a little hard to get there. Anyone willing to go up early Friday morning can carpool with me, I'll be coming back after it ends on Sunday.

Acquired grounds and paddock tix for Sunday. I'm driving up then. I'm thinking about doing a crab dinner at Bo Brooks later that night. Anyone interested?
