Thanks Giz!!

Got my email and for once didn't wait until the last minute to sign up. Coach and I are counting the days until we're all at Camp Toffolo.

You did such a great job so far what are the odds of getting us a parade lap!?!

Thanks again

Wow! Give 'em an inch...

Glad you guys got in on the deal. I warned them in advance that I may have more names to add on Friday. But, I keep asking Corporate about grandstand seating and get no replies. If I add parade laps to that, I'm afraid they'll cut me off all together. Corporate has the week off, so I don't expect to hear back from them until next week.

Parade laps are a logistics nightmare for us to use our own cars. At Belle Isle, they had 8 new CTS-Vs staged just behind the pits for the parade lap. They may do something like that at Mid-Ohio, but I would expect that's going to be reserved for GM Execs. You never know... I'll bring my fire suit just in case.

Question? Do these Cadillac Tickets include admission all weekend and infield parking pass or do we still need to get them from Mid Ohio? Not sure if I understood it all correctly.
Thanks again Giz for the insight. You are the man.

I just got off the phone with Cindy at Mid-Ohio. She said they haven't sent out any of the ticketing to Cadillac, yet, but she is "100% sure these will include general admission tickets." Like I said above, we've been going to Mid-Ohio for years and you can't get into the Corral area without at least a general admission ticket AND a corral pass. Based on the flyer, I'd say we're going to get at least four things in the mail: a welcome letter with the schedule and directions, (2) general admission tickets, and (1) corral pass.

Thanks Gizmo. Guess we will just have to wait and see.

SRT Viper debuts in ALMS @ Mid-Ohio!!!

SRT Viper GTS-R is set to debut in ALMS race at Mid-Ohio in August - Autoweek

If the weekend of racing wasn't enough, we'll get to see the debut of the new SRT Viper in the ALMS GT class. Can't wait to see how the new Viper does against Corvette, BMW & Porsche.

Only two more weeks. Lets hope for good weather and our same parking corral.

Great job Bruce. The dsh plaques are fantastic. This time next week Tiffany should be arriving at the hotel in Sunbury, Ohio. Anyone else going on Thursday nite?

 

[Tiffany's Dad]

Has anyone that signed up for the Cadillac event gotten any tickets or info yet? All i have gotten so far is a confirmation when I ordered it. Getting awful close and it would be nice to know what we are getting for the $125 fee.

I have not seen anything yet; but I haven't been home for two weeks. I'll check when I get home tomorrow.

Check "My Events Page" on Registration Confirmation

I have not seen anything yet;

I too am wondering where's the stuff. Went back to my Registration Confirmation and clicked the "My Events Page" and saw this message:

1. Name: *************

YOUR RESERVATION IS CONFIRMED!
We are thrilled that you plan to join us at the Cadillac Racing event. Once onsite, you will be requested to check in. Click here for driving directions.
We look forward to seeing you trackside!

I believe this suggests that the Cadillac stuff will be waiting for us............

Just got off the phone with mid-ohio to see if our tickets were gonna be there at "will call" but they don't seem to know anything about the Cadillac tickets to their corral. Hope we didn't get scammed.
