TOTAL PRICE $3251

Uhmmmmm.... WHAT?!?!?!?!? You can't be serious.

Holy shit.

It's open seating and you can see the whole track from any of the front stretch grandstands. My event passes with garage/pit access and infield camping were something like $150ea. You want to talk to Wayne Taylor or the Action Express guys? Walk down to the garage on Thursday. They're usually somewhere between the garage and the hauler.

$3251. They're out of their goddamn minds.

Sure it isn't $325, not $3251? Either/or, still a lot for a parking spot which is free across the street where I park. And I go back and forth to get my beer.

OK, out of pure morbid curiosity I looked at the website and it's $325. Not sure why what you cut and pasted said $3251.

I guess that's not TOO ridiculous for 2 tickets, etc.

$325 for two for the weekend is a lot cheaper than the Detroit Grand Prix Cadillac corral.

Sounds like an outstanding deal.

I was reading straight from your post...

$325 I can see.

$3k, they're smoking crack.
Thanks for pointing that out. I corrected it. That "1" added are the end of $325 making it read "$3251" was a footnote notification, like an asterisk. That is why it was there after I did the cut and paste. Again, thanks for pointing it out.

It's $325 per person. I already bought my tickets, otherwise I'd do it.
Seems odd it's per ticket with this statement:

"Two 3-Day Admission tickets to the Cadillac V-Performance hospitality suite with indoor/outdoor seating and views of the entire circuit"

Wow, good point. I went to their website, punched in two tickets and it came up $650. Might have to investigate further.

Typically with the caddy corrals there is a driver fee and additional passengers fee.

Driver more due to car parking at corral.

You're right.
Shoot, tinman I'm thinking about it.. it is 2 tickets with the hospitality tent plus special paddock access.. I went last year just to watch from day light to night time, stayed till 11pm, it's awesome.. with the extras $160 ea for a 3 day pass, hell parking alone cost me $40 last year.

Parking across the street was free. You had free ingress and egress, so we would go out to our car 3-4 times. We would eat and refill with beer, and fill our back pack to take more beer and soda inside. But to me, the real deal is getting inside. After about 11 pm or so you start getting tired and cold. Having a place to park your cold, tired hungry ass inside, have hot food, relax away from it all, that is worth it. Next year I will be doing this.

I hear ya.. I'll let you know how it is and if it's worth it. One of my buddies from work is in for 1/2, so car parked inside and credential passes and tent stuff. win, win to me.. :cool:

I bought the last ticket! I clicked on my order, the confirmation came through and I then went to the hope page. I was greeted by this: SOLD OUT!

Even though my son bought us tickets for entry from Rolex/Daytona, the Caddy tickets were only $100 more for indoor seating and outdoor seating as well as food. Worth it to me as well as we can see all the other awesome V's parked there. And for you guys who have been there before, it gets cold there in the wee hours. Inside seating (and plumbing) will be welcome.

For once I don't have to worry about some dumb wanker opening his car door into my side. I hope.

Who else is going?
