Grand Am Laguna Seca - Guaging Intrest / Caravan

This is to see who is intrested in going to see the race at Laguna Seca in Monterey California. The race schedule is from Friday September 7-9 and includes the Continential race, Grand AM race and a few other events. Motels are around $45 and up. I figure it might be good to get things start as reservatiosn may be filling up. You can camp on tack or stay at a motel near by. There is also a parade lap that has a limited number of people for $50.

Race Schedule:
CONTINENTAL TIRE SPORTS CAR FESTIVAL Powered by MAZDA - Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca

More Corel Info: ($60 for 3 days and 1 person)

Well I would perfer driveing up Saturday to save $$$ on the room the previous night. I want to do the parade lap but I havent decided yet, $50 is a lot for a lap at slow pace. It would have to be pretty early.

Having trouble with grand am allowing some of us, including the organizer, get into the corral area. Forced us to park in general admission. Marlon is trying to clear it up.
