Who's house can I stay at?

 

You doing all 3 days?

 

Looks like turn 4 grand stand with a few people from Dallas but f them they are on their own finding a place to stay. All the hotels are full and ticket are not on sale till july 10. Have a friend that can buy tickets now but waiting till I know I have a place to stay.

 

Didn't answer the question.

I have a place, but was thinking of having a few people, and doing a BBQ thing.

 

Ya three day tickets. Planning on being down all weekend.

 

Maybe next year I'll head down...

My GF thinks I'm a freak for being such a big F1 fan and not going. I need to do it one year though. It's Austin or Canada.

 

I just got the early ticked link in my e-mail. I'm considering it.

 

The girl and I have been planning to go. We've had a room booked since last winter. Just got the ticket price email though and it's a bit re-donk. Guess I'm spoiled by Indy. Still debating making the trip.

I've always bought tix at the track from a scalper for F1, MotoGP, and the 500 (pre IRL), but I wonder if I can get away with that in Austin. Never paid face value and always got good seats.

 

Yeah I though it is a bit much more than i've paid for any sporting event. When we had ALMS races here in houston I always scored free tickets. I wonder why there is no 1 day option.

 

Because it's F1 and a new track that is having ---- loads of money problem so they are doing what ever they can to make you pay more.

 

What are the ticket rates?

 

Premium??? You need to buy a PSl and I dont see the info on my weblink.

GRANDSTAND BLEACHERS
3 DAY PASS

GENERAL ADMISSION
3 DAY PASS

That's expensive. Got to decide if I want to go....

 

I know its F1 and all but its hard for me to pay that to not have seats and not know what I will be doing at work 6 months out. I can not commit to 3 days. I'll probably just see how things go this year and let them work out the kinks.

(I do not mind the no seats thing but they don't even have camping options up yet.)

 

Yeah, I'm afraid it might be a cluster this year.

 

I'm doing general admission. Bring a spare liver, we're going to hit it hard.

 

Hotels are about $250 a night even for the crap ones and 75% or more are booked from months ago.

 

Ditto and ditto.

 

yup

 

Got my tickets. Well, they ship them starting on my birthday (fiscal year birthday w00t).
