Well, me and Greg have decided to go to Daytona on Saturday, pretty much ONLY if we can get some dece parking infield....
Which makes me ask, how can I meet Luca? I'm surprised nobody has made any postings about him or meeting etc....actually, it seems as if the MV showings are pretty weak.
PM me or Greg if you don't feel like posting it here for everybody to see, but we're both pretty bummed nobody has taken the initiative....that, and riding there alone kinda sucks if we get there and find we can't meet the guy, lol.
See the JamesC thread. They're driving from Texas. Parking will likely suck, but don't let that bother you. Sounds like paddock passes are an extra $15 at Daytona. You'll get access to the pits. Go and have fun. No doubt you'll get to meet the guys!
of course, the BIG race is at 11 AM....
i thought that it USED to be....
1. on sunday
or
2. later in the day
so.....
IF the race is at 11 AM....
it'll be hard to get to meet him, NO MATTER HOW EARLY WE GET THERE.... no?

Unless they say otherwise, I'd leave them alone before the race, but that's just me. Some people need to get in a zone and they might have things they need to get done... You'll know where they will be during the race. My suggestion would be to go see the race and then catch them back at their pits right after they finish their champagne in winners' circle!
Go early, watch practice and hang out. Stop by the pits, figure out where winners' circle is for the podium shots!

i absolutely agree
i'd NEVER bother them before race time
practice begins at 0930
i'd be happy to be there by 0700..... IF i thought we'd DEFINITELY get in.... since, it's 3 hours from my house
i'd ride the BMW over.... so that i can take my Nikon D200 and all the Lenses necessary for such a SHOOT

Try calling the ticket office to see when the gates open to the public and whether it makes a difference if you buy tickets online or at the office. Not sure if the published walk-up hours answers the question.
