2012 Grand-Am Schedule
 

Well the new race season is almost upon us.

The first race for 2012 featuring the Boss 302R is at Daytona, is anyone planning on attending?

Flag drops at 1:30 p.m. anyone want to get to together for the race?

There's also the "Roar before the 24" testing the weekend of 6 - 8 Jan.

It's like 15 dollars per day for the Roar and the Grand-Am 200.

I plan to be there for the Saturday test day.

I hope to be there for the whole weekend for the race itself. The only variable is if I get Friday off or not.

I plan to be there for the 24 Hour race weekend.

Bummer, VIR's not on the list. Guess I'll have to drive a bit further to watch next year. Sounds like it'll be worth it though.

Barber,Homesead, and Mid Ohio are on my list to make. Sux VIR is a no go this year.

Won't be able to make the Continental Daytona race on the 27th, but I will be there for the 24 hour race.

Still plan on being there for the Saturday test session.

This years cars...

I'll be flying into Daytona on the 25th. Hope the weather is sunny and warm....I need to thaw out my winter blood!

The Roush teams are pretty strong again this year. Hoping Jack Roush Jr. and Billy Johnson can step up from 2nd place and take home the series championship this year. If not for a couple of mechanical issues, they surely would have been the champions last year..... it ended up all coming down to the last race at Mid Ohio, where they had an outside chance at getting the championship.

^^^ That is hot! Wish I could be there tomorrow and for the 24. My niece picked a bad weekend to get married!! lol

Roush Mustang beat 6 BMWs! I have the DVR set to tape the race on Speed next weekend.

Spoiler? :doh:

Mar 30-April 1 Barber Motorsports Park

Who's going? Anybody know how/ where to get tickets that include concourse / corral parking?

Well they actually go fast enough to get benefit from em so why not? I think every real racecar should have some type of wing on the back, help keep the rear end planted at speed and tight cornering
