you'll be just fine! However, you will not be able to attain a spot on the fence line.
There are some trackside reserved spaces still available, if you have an extra $500 Did the guy on here ever sell his turn 1 parking pass? What are you wanting to do Party,.. or Watch the Race? Or if both,.. which one is the most important to you? |

Haha I don't even have an extra $100 as I am a cash strapped college student.
I was hoping to experience a bit of both because I've heard Sebring brings together legendary racing along with legendary partying. But I think if I had to choose the watching the race side would win because from what I've seen and read it's an amazing sight to behold.

Best advice I can give is to pace yourself with the partying. I've never passed out during the 12 Hour but I have during the Friday races. I felt like I cheated myself and sorry about that porta-john that I totally ruined for the weekend.

Cool,.. I wouldn't worry too much,.. You'll find a spot to call Home. By Friday there might be some evidence scattered about, so as to give you some indication of what to expect Friday and Saturday Nights!!! If there are a lot of burn marks or some sort of charred remains,... you might want to consider another location!!!! lol  I think you should stay in the Zoo!!!! That's where I'll be!!! |

Last year was our first time camping in Green Park. Will never camp anywhere else. There was still room on Friday last year near the walk over bridge.

Unfair. Unbalanced. Unmedicated.

You'll have plenty of time to do both! (Note, the bit about not setting up next to the charred remains of anything is about the best advice I've ever heard!) You'll still have open spots Friday if it's just you & a tent. Do make it to Turn 10 Friday night for Lee's Slide Show, introduce yourself around and you'll meet most of us that are here. Just one question: What flavor(s) Ice Cream are you bringing for us? Welcome to the forum! |

I don't think her suggestion of: "Camping in the family area just to the left of the midway when you enter" is very good advice at all!!!! lol  |

I was applauding at this: pick your spot wisely! Dont camp next to someone who has concert speakers, as they will undoubtedly play ALL NIGHT LONG!!
