Who Is Going to the Daytona 24 Hour?

We will be at the Daytona Weekend Race starting next Friday, driving there in our Shelby.. Bring your Shelby and enjoy one of the better endurance races in the world. Hit me up if you are planning to attend. We have infield and pit passes....

I wish I could attend...... have fun!

I am heading down early friday from atl. Should get there at start of race. With 31 cars entered in GS it should get interesting. Wish i could drive the 350 but coming with a friend and hoping to play golf one day.

Thinking about it. If I buy the two-day wristband for the infield is parking in the infield included for free?

I'll be down there with George from MGW. His metal wallet company, SCUDO, is sponsoring one of the Kohr Racing (Dean Martin's team) IMSA GT4 Mustangs for the 2018 season.

Can't wait and hoping for some great weather.

I have the 4 day wristband infield and stadium and it says access to daily parking garage is included. I am guessing infield parking is NOT included. I am going to check tomorrow...

We are going and have a infield parking pass. Been doing this race since 1973 off and on. The conti race Friday should be great with 7 mustang GT4’s entered. The race is this Friday and you can stream it live. TV delay a week later I think. It’s great Wednesday thru Sunday. Garage area is always buzzing with the new equipment from all the manufacturers. Ford has a great display area as does Corvette. In St Augustine now and the weather is great. We use our 35 ft motorhome and will get to Daytona on Tuesday. You can Watch the Rolex 24 starting Saturday on TV or Stream it live on imsa tv.
Like I said you can get down and dirty with the teams. Pictures are from last year.
I think the squirrel is a lucky drivers piece on the mustang GT4.

Infield parking is hard to get and it’s a separate $90 ticket from the 4 day ticket. On race day the infield is a traffic jam. That’s why they limit tickets for infield parking. Young and old it’s a happening for sure. Grills smoking and the noise of the cars for 24 hours is just amazing. It should be on everyone’s bucket list. Night time is cool as hell and the stadium view is awesome also. The 4 day ticket gets you everywhere except the hot pits.

Hope to catch Friday's race. Will be in and out during the weekend if the weather holds.

Yep, found out that all the paid parking is gone as of two days after it was opened up in June. I thought my 4 day ticket said access to paid parking garage, but I guess not.....:shrug:

I am bringing my SHelby and a bit disappointed that I cannot park there. Any suggestions??

Thanks...

Jealous! I hope to one day make this event. Have fun, even if it's an hour walk from the nearest unpaid spot. ;)

. Call ford performance because they have a mustang corral. It’s not cheap but since you already have your tickets maybe they can work something out for you.

There are a ton of trams to move people around. I like watching the semis come in and unload their equipment. Wednesday is closed to the public but the parking pass on the window seems gets you in. The big crowds don’t come until Friday night.
