First Ever National Guru Gathering - Sebring 2012 (With Photos!) |
Subject: First Ever National Guru Gathering - Sebring 2012 (With Photos!) by bogus on 2011/3/30 23:24:19 I am posting this now to gauge interest and get people thinking. Sebring 2012 - the 60th running, sounds to me like the perfect place to have our first national Guru Gathering. To give you all an idea of ticket prices, we paid $265.00, for 2 people, for our four-day Corvette Corral passes. This includes parking for the Corral, or, if you don't have a Vette, the overflow/general parking areas. If you want North Paddock parking, that is $75.00. In 2011, a 4-day super ticket was $100.00, general parking is $25.00. There are other options, and as we get closer, I will post them. Tickets for the race won't go on sale until January, and there is a discount for early purchase. This year, the Corral included: * Exclusive Corral Parking * Meet/Greet/Autograph Session with the drivers & Corvette Racing and GM execs * Judged Car Show * Parade Laps * QA from Corvette Racing, Michelin, Mobil 1 & Ron Fellows * Various drawings for prizes, including hot pit and pace lap * Snacks and drinks for all four days, plus lunch on Saturday * Big shady/dry place hospitality tent, with tables and chairs (this alone almost worth it!) * Two big screen TVs to watch the race/qualifying/practice/whatever Corral Schedule from IMSA Here is a starting point for hotels: http://www.sebringraceway.com/accomodations.lasso Additional towns in the region: * Lake Placid * Avon Park * Wachula * Arcadia * Winter Haven All are within 40 miles of Sebring. Guru related events will be discussed as we get closer! |
