Thanks Kristof - I'd better get on the phone and make a booking sharpish, then!

Unfortuately NOT going to LM this year due to personal circumstances for me and 3 others in the group 
I'm going to Sebring, though, albeit now alone!

Jase, anyone....
Where's the preferred RV parking vs. Turn 10, then, please?
Looking at the map the track have online, I'm guessing the yellow zone they've named "Hendricks Field"?
https://www.sebringraceway.com/sebring-events/12-hour-race/supersebring-2020-tickets-and-parking-information#reserved-rv-parking
10ft wide space is $460 plus super weekend general ticket at $110
Thanks,
Russell

Cheers, Jase
I was going with Tigger, but he backed out... so I will be going on my own.
My flights with Luftwaffe are already booked, to/from Tampa, out on 11th March, leaving on 23rd.

« on: August 21, 2019, 03:47:46 pm »John Stevens did that this year, think he enjoyed himself. I had so much fun this year I've started planning for 2020 already
I'm going with "Tigger" to St.Pete's and Sebring.
I saw the tickets for Sebring went on sale this week, but I've not looked at the details yet.
Are there special tickets for RV access / camping, or is it simply "get there as soon as you can on Wednesday (or earlier)", to get on site?

I spoke with "Tigger" earlier this week. I understand he will be there but I don't know if he's camping.

To add: it's the St Petersburg Indy GP (street circuit, downtown St.Pete) on Sun 15th March, so 3 races in 1 week.

I asked my wife about Sebring, "Is it OK if...?" - "Yes!" was the response. I think she wants me out of the house as much as possible!
I've been searching through RVs that aren't ridiculous either in size or money to rent, and will probably pick one up in Tampa en-route between Orlando and Sebring.
I will be booking my flights soon to make sure I'm on the Luftwaffe plane to/from Frankfurt, probably 12th - 22nd March.

The reality was: they didn't seem too bothered
A very quick. cursory glance in my backpack and that was that... backpack has 4 pockets, they looked in 1!
Still, I did have 2 large metallic water bottles with G&T in my bag

Personally I take in one litre of fortified water* and cans of Coke to dilute it.
* may contain vodka
Similarly, 1.5l. Vittel will be G&T!

Many thanks, Kristof.
I'm camping at LM on BN next to Team Robbo and The Brethren, so I will also ask those guys who were at Sebring this year for a bit of an insight, too.

Hi all,
I've missed too many opportunities to go to Sebring over the last few years, usually because an annual conference I attend in St.Pete's is 2 weeks before or after.
Next year it's increasingly likely I will be on gardening leave, so I really don't want to miss it for 2020 - an excuse for my 50th next year, too.
What do I need to know about renting RVs, getting on site, Fish on Fire, etc., etc., please?
(Unlike many of you, I'll likely be flying via Frankfurt to Tampa, then heading to Orlando and Sebring from there.)
Who else is likely to be there?
Thanks!
Russell

Hey Rusty,
Great design and tribute.
Please could I order 1 x XL in grey?
If your bank details haven't changed, I think I still have it in my PMs.
I'll collect onsite BN Camp C'Arnage.
Cheers,
Russell

Out Weds 12th June on the 09:50 so hopefully on site by 17:00 after a dash around Super U for beers.
Camping with Club C’Arnage on Bleu Nord (as usual) with Robin, Russell, Rob and Ben.
Up and out of BN on Sunday after the race for a night in Chartres then a gentle drive north via The Somme Memorial at Thriepval on Monday before tunnelling home late Monday afternoon at 16:50
^^^ yeah, that... I arrive on Thursday afternoon from Luxurybourg with the aforementioned Rob & Ben.
