Ok all you Vette owner's both racer's and waxer's..........It's the 2008 New Year and this means Rolex Time at Daytona.
It means the the 2008 kick of of racing World wide season of racing to begin.
The Kick off so to speak.
Time for us vette owner's to show some support for our very reason to be here...CORVETTE.
I for one am tired of seeing PORSCHE Corral.Ferrari CORRAL and the biggest of all Corral' well there isn't any more the CORVETTE Corral for owner's.
WHAT the heck we gonna do about this terrible tragity?
SEBRING has a huge Corvette Corral but Daytona Rolex there no longer is one. Time we got together and did something about it RIGHT!
The Vette crews and driver's owner's of the Rolex race deserve our support, these are great teams and fun people to chat with, share story's with, and pat them on the back for their efforts.
If anyone here doesn't know them..........I'll introduce you to them myself.
Time we get together and sho some Corvette support.

Hey Dan THE MAN........Tailgate Dan.....Tailgate

Party......Have a beer or two.maybe 3 Dan.
As I posted before get to know the Corvette teams.....the crew's, the Driver's,
all great folks with the same passion as Corvette owner's. Up close and personal. Take a walk around all the garages, meet with any world class driver of any racing sport world wide. You name them and their there. Not just sports car racing driver's.............NASCAR driver's....F1 driver's, Indy, Cart, Busch, World Challange driver's, IMSA, Grand-Am, Rally you name it, and the driver's are all their. Want your picture with them.just ask and it's a done deal. Real one on one. Heck, walk out to the start/ finish checkered line and sign your name on it with a sharpie.
Gordon, Junior, Johnson, Stewart, you name the racer's they're there as I said. With a field of 70+ car's racing the 24 hr race and 4 driver's per car that's some 280 driver's of world class behind the wheel's. Where else you going to meet and greet other than the LeMans 24?
IF you folk's are 1 st timer's, Spiceman and wife will show you the ropes.
Most of all support our Corvette teams and crew member's. :dancer01:

Corvettes should make their presence known - hope a big group is interested in a Corvette Corral just let me know!

This was asked, and I didn't see an answer:

where - when - how?!!

And I didn't find it on the calendar when I looked. I believe you are just assuming that everyone here knows the details......... :shrug01:

So, how about more details so we will know whether we CAN attend, which has a higher priority than WANTING to.......... :D
 
Your right, I have in deed Thought (mistake) everyone knew

es I've made a mistake thinking I'd already posted the ROLEX 24 Hr race
at Daytona international Speedway, Daytona Fl.
Located on the International Blvd. Which is right off I-95, Daytona .
The Date for this event is this Jan 26 and 27th. (24 hour race)
However. there is a ticket which can also be purchased that cover's the24th, 25th, 26, and 27. 4 Day ticket. This ticket is $80.00 for the 4 day's.
All ticket's are INFIELD, and unlimited access.
Anyone going be advised to be there at the track before 9:30 am cause the parking infield fill's up by that time.
Again, this is an International event that represent's nearly every make race car and world wide driver's to race them.
Wife and I do this event every year, so again anyone new to it.......just give us a call.......we'll be there.
One more short note..........Call ahead to the speedway (Daytona International Speedway) and get your ticket's...as the ticket web site doesn't mention the 4 day $80.00 one........only the $160.00 dollar ticket.
Why pay double?
Those interested in just an:thumbsup: 1 day ticket....not sure but I think 25.00 to 40.00.
 
Rolex 24 @ Daytona

Spiceman I'll send you a PM!

It sounds like you can get together your own corvette corall. The cell phone link should work to get all those interested together. The "corvette forum" used to sponsor a corrall but that was about 2001!

I am thinking of a one day ticket. Looks like they're available on the racetrack Website. I've never been to a race so it would be an interesting day for me.
 
I've been going to Daytona for many years and would love to meet some other Corvette folks. I'm not sure what it takes to have a car corral but if I can help let me know. Maybe I'll see some of you there.

Just bought the 2-day package including infield and garage. I'll be seeing John, Bonnee and hopefully more FL Corvette folks at the corral.
 
Hey Dan Z06, geat to have you there at the Rolex

Would really enjoy having you at the Rolex, here's my email address, send me a note, and I'll give my cell number to you so when your at the track just give me a call we'll hook up with the other Vette owner's there.

Takin names now and wanting the chance for all of us to meet one another.
What ya say?
 
hey spiceman thanks for the offer...would've loved to do it, but doesn't seem to be in the cards for me this year - maybe next year we an organize a corvette coral - that'd be great. I'm a great IndyCar fan and spend most of the month of May at the Indy Motor Speedway, so the Rolex is a great winter activity. have a great time!
