Going to USGP!

Anyone else going to the USGP? 2 friends and I just purchased our race tickets, air, and hotel rooms! I am so psyched! We are in the top of the 'A' suites...I hope it is a good place to sit...

If anyone from these forums is going, I would love a quick get-to-gether somewhere...it's fun putting faces to names!

See you at the usgp,

Pianoman

i just found this out.

in attempts to attract people to the sport, the pit- lane will be open at the usgp to race day ticket holders – free of charge – from 8.00am until midday on Thursday September 25. Still photography and video is permitted for personal use.


i think i may have to change my plans to include the entire weekend.

Hey West, I can't make it until Saturday morning. It would be fun to hook up somewhere...I don't know for sure If I'm gonna bring any cars...if you do I will tho! I got one racer that works pretty good, and one F1 that I would call decent. I can 'chalk' out a pretty good track almost anywhere!

We're staying at Holiday inn SE, and I've got 2 exellent friends going along...It's gonna be a party!

Cheers!

Pianoaman

i'll bring my Z just in case but it'd be my F1 only.

even if we don't race, i wouldn't mind hooking up just for a photo op to place in the gallery.

however, in case we end up doing a brief racing stint, i have some corner markers for the microsizers we can use. i'll also have my F1 set up as i do at our club and ready to compete.


Your buds have F1s also? If so then for sure let's race a few rounds.

great. the four of us running our f1's will no doubt draw a crowd.

wish i was in the business of selling these F1s. i think they would sell like hot cakes when people see us racing



we'll need to organize a meeting time and place for sure. there is an area near the mercedes building that is smooth black top. would be good to race there.

Are we allowed to bring in something like that? Security might be problematic...

last year i had a back pack with personal items and i was never searched. can't say i won't be searched this year but don't see a problem bringing in hobby items like the Zs. not like it's a gun or a knife

i might even try to get kimi and or david to sign my Z while i'm there

as for actually racing them in public, we'll have to wing it. if anything, people (including security) might find it entertaining.
we'll be at an F1 race so i'm hoping security will be somewhat understanding

how about near the main gate? at some designated time. perhaps after the qualifiers are over

we're still meeting i hope.

here's the provisional schedule for Saturday the 27th. The only day i'll be able to make it:


Saturday

09:00-09:45 Free Practice
10:15-11:00 Free Practice
13:00-14:00 Qualifying
14:30- ?? Support races


we can either meet after second open practice (after 11a) or after the qualifier (after 2p)

place of meeting is up in the air. Lots of potential places ie the mercedes building, the main gp shop or the Main gait. any other suggestions?

Hopefully we'll be able to race without security interference but if not, at least a group pic is in order.

MiniZ- i'll see if i can't get mike to lend me the website banner
