I purchased my tickets now I need a recommendation on a good place to stay in Daytona. Any and all feedback much appreciated!

Stay near the beach. It's an easy drive and the hotels are much cheaper than near the track.

I'd love to see a Ford corral after all these years but my wife's health is stopping us this year. We plan on seeing next year but will watch this from afar.

 

[VoodooBoss]

That should be fun. I'm planning on going to the IMSA race at Laguna Seca at the end of April to see the cars too. I usually pay for the infield parking at LS so I don't have to park in the dirt. I should have my GT350 by then. ;D ;D ;D

Bill were you trying to post these?

 

[Fomoco302]

Yes I was Rick. I'm still technically challenged and it's not getting better as I age! B-day #65,is on Monday.

 

[VoodooBoss]

Well happy early birthday! I hope the weather is nice so you can take your Boss for a nice long drive. 8)

 

[docs302]

I'll be heading south in my old Explorer for the race........unfortunately the Boss will be in hibernation. It says Ford only........so I guess I qualify! No motel for me as I plan on napping in the Explorer at the track........going to head back north as soon as the race is over.

 

[giants197]

I will be there on Saturday and Sunday. My dad and I go every year! Look out for my GT or my dad's SVO in the Ford corral, haven't decided on what we are driving yet.

 

[Berol]

I'll be there Friday

 

[VoodooBoss]

Don't forget to take photos and post some of them.

 

[satisfaxtion]

Be there all three days- parking in the Ford car corral- 2012 Boss 302

Normally take Friday off and watch the GS cars in the Continental Race- wish the Roush cars were still running that series.

take my son & grandson to the Rolex Saturday for the start and watch a few hours, go home (35 minutes) for a good bed and come back for the late Sunday morning, hope we have good weather this year.

First time for the Ford package deal with a "chalet" with food and all that i can remember, glad to see them stepping it up- GM always has there whole product line on display and Ford normally has very little exposure there. New Ford GT car is the main reason i guess.

 

[Cobra700]

I'll be there all weekend. I'll be the '12 RR Boss with the GT front bumper.... :-\

I will also be in the Corral 8)

 

[steveespo]

[Fomoco302]

I'll be in the corral with my new F150-with the same motor as the new FordGT 8)

 

[Fomoco302]

On the road to Daytona!!

 

[Cobra700]

Anyone know if there will be a car show? Is the Ford Corral like a car show or only a parking area?
Also any after party events like a meet at Hooters or something at night? Thanks.

 

[blacksheep-1]

I ssssssssssssssssssssssssssoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo want to be there, I miss that race so bad, we had a heck of a crew and some of the fastest pit stops in the series

 

[VoodooBoss]

For the guys that are there we need some photos of the GT350R-C and the FGT!

CTSCC is on the net tomorrow. Qualifying is the second link, the 350's are third and fourth and a 302R qualified 10th.

[302 Hi Pro]

Boss 302R's are still being fielded! That amazes me, and I it will be interesting to see how they fair against new technology cars?

I have to make it down to Florida next year, drop the Wifie off to visit her Mom and disappear for the weekend! It would probably take 2 days before she noticed I was gone! Hahahaha

Have a great time in Daytona, send us plenty of pic, commentaries and a few Roving Reporter Vids.

They did well last season in Grand AM GS and PWC GTS. The Boss 302S/R will continue to win races for decades to come at the amateur level!
