Hotels within 8-10 miles are all booked for Friday and Saturday Jan 29 and Jan 30.

I just spoke to Expedia. I Tried Oceanside Inn ( 5 miles from Track )
They checked Oceanside and all hotels within 10 miles....Everyone is full for the Friday and Saturday.

Is anyone staying at a farther out hotel ?
Any Ideas ? Recommendations... ?
ps... I am not sleeping in my Truck :)

DBK posted that there were some spots with the Ford guys across the street from the track if they are still available.

Kayak.com showed some left in the area. Might also try heading south a few miles, like New Smyrna Beach area.

Yeah, sorry about that guys. I got the email late yesterday morning and was told they needed me to take 6. Had to go to the doctor shortly thereafter and by the time I got out they had sent an email saying they needed to know in 20 minutes.....that had arrived 45 minutes earlier.

Very familiar with this process, assembly plants operate in a similar fashion. No reason to differentiate on the PR side of the business. :biggrin

Little bit of an odd process. Will recommend that ticket packages are able to be purchased directly in the future.

FYI - Daytona ticket packages for the Ford GT owner hospitality are almost sold out. Will update this afternoon with hard numbers on remaining amount that can be accommodated. I am told that they have cleared the inbox, so everyone should have received a response.

Get your order in with:

FordCarCorral@campbellmarketing.com

You guys need to relax. :wink

Interesting that 38 Package 1s are ordered (as of Nov 2), but only 26 show up in the poll. 12 left in the cap of 50.

And, only two Package 2s left. What is the cap?

Does this mean Scott Pruett will not be behind the wheel?
