The packages listed are not the "club" packages that usually involve getting parking infield and a parade lap. I'll check around to see if this is being offered. Probably on the Rx7club site.

Anyways, who's going????

I contacted the Marketing Dept this morning at Homestead Speedway and spoke to Kevin Gregory who is the new marketing manager.
He said that the car corral is still available and is again as last year located at the South end of the track. The tickets are $30.00 and if you want to combine the Corral Ticket with other opportunties they can bundle the cost. In other words you can particpate in the Corral and still combine that with the elevated seats over the pits. You have to call them to have this done (305)230-5000 and identify your self as a member of the RX-8 club.

Ricky SE3P 02-25-2011 09:34 AM

we need two more 8's! come on people :dunno:

cavemancan 02-25-2011 12:32 PM

Who said the other thread was BETTER!!! I :puke: in your direction!

So common ladies and gents let's go see some racing.

Note: for those with little ones please make sure to bring ear plugs just in case. The parking is literally a few feet from the track itself! :evil_laug

Doing great, hope the same for you. I was supposed to be on a biz trip next week but got cancelled. Running behind for me and glad you picked up the ball.
I am going for the corral as usual and see what the total bundle will be for elevated seating. Let you know $$$.
They now have a passenger van running back and forth from the South end to the pit side of the track. That was a great move.

Next year we will behind the grand stands where they used to have the car show. That will be great and away from the dust.

Oh man just bought a set of the Kumho Ecsta XS tires, putting them on tomorrow. The reviews are great on this tire. I burnt the other ones from last year in under 12,000 miles.
See you there.

Excuse me since I'm new and don't know who you are yet.. Are you going to the races that day as a rx8club member? (to know if you count towards our 5 car minimum) That is your car in your pic correct? Looks badass dude.

Anytime I can help!

Thank goodness about the passenger van...I don't think my dogs can handle the walk this year! LOL!

BEHIND THE GRAND STANDS??? NNNOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! :crying: I didn't mind the dust last year...It was WAY cooler to literally have you car parked a few feet away from the hair pin turn.
