Nissan Z and GT-R Owners Petit Le Mans Weekend at Road Atlanta 9/30-10/1

Not sure what's up there. But if you go on Road Atlanta's site they more than likely have recommendations on hotels.

One other questions i have since i got the tickets. Will I be able to walk out to various areas of the track for picture taking? I would love to get out to the esses and get some pics there as well as the downhill run into the chicane.

I don't see why not. I've never seen any restrictions on where you can go there. But to get pics of the esses you'll have to drive around to the back side of the track and walk out on to the hill that over looks the esses. The chicane would also be a good place to take some.

If it's like the Mid-Ohio event, we had run of the whole track. I was worn out by the time I got back to my hotel in the evenings.
We even got paddock passes and a tour through the paddock. You might email Andy and ask him.

Just got mine this evening! I ll be going up Friday evening (arriving around 10 PM). If you want to camp over night, you an show up the day before after 10 PM to set up camp.

....probably tossing the air mattress into the bed of the truck and putting the pop-up tent over the truck bed to keep the dew off over night.

Dunno where I'll be posted up or camping yet. BTW...you can go ALMOST anywhere. There are a few spots off limits due to safety (obviously).

Dai,
I might take you up on this. The night life around Road Atlanta during Petit is alot of fun. I have alot of friends, from many industries and backgrounds, camping as well. Plus trying to leave Saturday night after the race is a freakin NIGHTMARE!
I did it once and attempted to leave when everyone else did....4 hrs later we were finally at the gate. The race ends around 10:00 PM usually and is about a 1.5 hr ride for me. I did not get home until extremely late ....or early depending on which way you look at it.

I prefer just to sleep there at the track Saturday night and not fight the chaos. I can get up Sunday morning and then head home with relative ease.
