Default ALMS/IRL Honda S2K Decal Program

Free tickets, pit access and more for ALMS and IRL at Mid-Ohio!

I have rediculously said "in" for this 1100 mile round trip

Anyone in western NY able to come to this?

2008 Decal Program - Indycar and Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course

We are going to do a decal program this year, in conjunction with the IRL and Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course for the race weekend of July 18-20.

I've been watching the Florida S2000 group do this for the past two years, during the St. Pete race weekend and now we have the chance to do it in Ohio for our Indycar race!

Here is a quick breakdown of what we will do:

∙ minimum of 20 cars, maximum of 40+ (subject to change)

∙ we will put decals on our cars, approximately 4 weeks before the race weekend, and then show them off as much as possible. We will plan some photo meets and ops and take tons of pictures.

∙ Mid-Ohio and/or the IRL will have some pre-race activities for us to attend (more photo ops). This schedule has not been finilized and can change day-to-day because of the time demands of the Indycar drivers and their schedule. This may include some on-track activities - such as an S2000 parade with each carrying an Indycar driver.

Participants will get one pair (two) of the IMSA car corral tickets for the entire weekend (3 DAYS!), which includes;
- weekend General Admission ticket
- grandstand seat
- paddock pass
- pit access pass!
- a special infield parking pass (one) and admission to the hospitality tent for the Acura Sports Car Challenge on Saturday.
Also, discount coupons for food, souvenirs, etc...

The problem is trying to find a hotel room. I've been trying for the past week or so.

I think I am committed (or I will be after this crazy stunt) at this point even if it means sleeping in the S Must be showers at the track somewhere?

I actually have an invite to stay within 2 hours of the track so that is my "worst case" scenario I have a best case in mind but I probably shouldn't post that

Sounds like quite the weekend.
When I read the "quick breakdown" I was thinking they want the Hondas in the area for 4 weeks for promotions.

Ellen,
I should clarify- I'm going but not on the decal program. I was thinking if I found a close hotel for a decent price I'd take my car & attend the S2000 car coral. If not we will be camping or sleeping in the van.

That's OK, we are over the minimum 20 cars needed now I have a feeling by the end of the month they will be starting a standby list
