actually the price quoted me includes lunches and use of suites.
i don't know if u can just "walk in" without paying for the packaged deal. seems like not.

you're right, my man. i'd rather watch the cirque

watching someone else drive on the track is not all that fun.

Forget the 250, they'll deal. I called and told her all I want to see is the timed event tomorrow at 1pm. From what she told me they're losing money on this and every little bit helps. I'm paying $50, still bit to watch a few cars run timed laps, but since Vegas is home guess it's worth it.

Why is it sounding like this event was so poorly organized. It seems to me with the cream of the crop porsches' out there for this shootout they should be fighting back the crowds if it was marketed properly to spectators and what not to make up whatever money they lost on materials, equip, setup, location fees etc... This just isnt right, im sorry guys. Hope you can make the best of it and still enjoy the time there.
