Question for the Sebring experts
« on: May 27, 2017, 11:39:56 am »
Hi folks,

I'm planning for 2018 a little already, the 12h race in Sebring seems to be on Saturday, March 17, 2018.
Anyone knows when they open the gates for the campsites? Is it Wednesday?

I already booked my flight.  :o  ;D

There was an idea about an RV, with knetter and Steve B, let's discuss this in 2 weeks in a field in France. ;)

This film should be played at high volume, so don't come complaining about it! And who the hell is Steve?

Hi all,

Three quick question froma newbie  for the experts:

1. We'll arrive with 4 people in a 25 feet RV and want to stay from Wednesday when they open the gate. Thinking about what tickets we might need I had a look at the order from from last year, it's attached. From what I see a four-day supoerticket for each makes sense. For the RV: Is it better to buy the "General RV Parking" or is it better to buy the "North Paddock RV Parking"?

2. We'll fly out of Orlando Monday afternoon after the race. Is it possible to stay until Monday Morning with the RV at the racetrack or will we get kicked out on sunday?

3. Can we buy tickets at the gate on Wednesday morning or is it better to ordre before?

Questions, questions, questions....
